“He actually played a big role in how I thought about politics and how I put together politics and God. One day, I was scrolling through Tiktok. It was probably 2020. I found him and really loved what he was saying.” “I think that finding him helped her develop that sense of confidence. This affects us.” “I wanted to put a big balloon or a flower. Give me my respect.” “I was so heartbroken.” “I bet.” “When I said Charlie was gone. Just because someone said something I hate doesn't mean you kill people. He doesn't deserve it. I was 10 years old and the way I learned about Charlie Kirk was that he had a really great show. “He said what we all thought. It's just traditional family. That's how it's become the way families do it. That's what resonated with a lot of us.” “I'm not that big in politics. I just kept the peace and didn't speak my mind a little while in a little while. Honestly, from now on, this is what I'm so tired of it that I'm going to feel a little more conservative and honest about it.” “We feel a bit scary, but on the brink of something a little revolutionary.” “What he goes by is just what I find difficult right now for everyone in our community.”
