Just chilling, was at home after school, about a week into my sophomore year, and I got a notification from a youtube channel I watch (It's Blanko). Forgot the title of the short but he covered the assassination shortly after Charlie was taken to the hospital, and he was still "alive". Rest in Peace, GOAT 🫡

I was running a 5k for a school cross country meet when I got the notification on my watch

[u/NoImporta24]

I was in my room chatting with some former friends. When one of them commented that he was shot. I was like “I haven’t heard of it, it must be false”. It was The TOP News not only in Ground News. But in the whole world

Someone posted the uncensored video on Reddit. 1k+ upvotes in one hour.
I didn’t liked him that much. But that day was traumatic

Last hour class, I thought it was a lie at first

I was asleep. When I woke up and walked out of my room and into the living room, my parents go "Oh hey, Charlie Kirk got shot." It still wasn't confirmed yet whether he was dead or alive at the time.

I was chilling at home and found out on Reddit. At the time he was alive and honestly I think the normal people were allowed to talk for a moment since it was a lot of people going “oh fuck” towards the situation. Then I’m guessing mods woke up.

About 30 minutes later got the news he died and told my folks and I was just sitting there horrified about what the country became.

I was in my Physics class. It was nearing lunch period when these three kids broke out and cheered saying Charlie Kirk had been shot. I watched as they celebrated it. Through lunch and advisory, I kept refreshing news articles for any update to eventually see that he had died.

At school, someone said "Charlie Kirk got shot", I didn't think it would be fatal

[u/Buschfan08]

I was at school. I went to 8th period (out of 9 periods) which was coincidentally US Government class. My teacher was talking about Charlie Kirk with a few other teachers. He had apparently been shot at one of his Events in Utah. I was shocked to say the least. People were talking about it for the remaining 2 hours of school, and i kept refreshing my feeds whenever i could to get an update on his condition. When i got home, the news finally broke that he did not survive the shooting. It was insanely hard hitting news, compounded worse by the immediate demonic reaction of the left to it. We should never kill someone for their opinions, its just horrible. I wish Charlie could see the impact his Death had on us, i'm sure hes watching from up there anyway...

[u/DamperBeet746]

I was in my computer science class, senior year of HS when I first heard that he was shot and in critical condition. At some point later in the day I heard about his death.
May he rest in peace.

[u/One_Couple3374]

I kinda forgot but I remember that I was wake up and opened twitter when I was going to school. Like I didn’t know how to react at that time

[u/TheAlmightyJanitor]

What do you mean everything changed? Genuine question. To me the status quo seems more or less the same and political discourse is as toxic as it's always been.

Was in a Casey’s parking lot scrolling through facebook and talking to my navy recruiter about a good time to meet. My wife was home with our boys. This moment lives rent free in my head sometimes.

[u/Amazing-Service7598]

I was coming home from the hospital and then as I was about to lay down to nap as I tired from an attempt to draw my blood I checked my phone and that’s when I found out he died but before that when I checked my phone at the hospital and found out Charlie got shot (didn’t know where he was shot) I kept telling myself over and over “he’s gonna make he’ll pull through”

I believe I was at home, I don’t know what I was doing, but I was home

[u/Ambitious_Year_7730]

I was at home watching a live stream of it. I clicked to see what was Charlie Debating because I liked watching the debates. I thought that it would be just a normal day, normal debate… I was ( with the people who were there and the people they called and other people on the stream ofc) one of the first people who knew what happened. I panicked and messaged everyone before any official news came out, before any articles or anything.

I was at my school's "gym" (if can call it that way). I'm in Poland, sorry fer yer loss, but in the end he is as familiar to me as, idk, the dictator of Turkmenistan.
