Fresno State Turning Point USA chapter honors Charlie Kirk

Описание: Students at Fresno State gathered Wednesday night for a vigil honoring conservative activist Charlie Kirk, whose death earlier this month continues to stir emotions and political debate nationwide.

The event, hosted by the university’s chapter of Turning Point USA, drew dozens of students, supporters, and community leaders.

With candles, prayers and American flags, speakers reflected on Kirk’s influence as a founder of the conservative youth organization and his reputation as a sharp and often polarizing voice on college campuses.

Central Valley Assemblyman David Tangipa addressed the crowd, calling Kirk a champion of free speech.

“The part that breaks my heart is how he’s been demonized and how many people called him a Nazi,” Tangipa said. “I don’t remember Hitler going to college campuses, walking up to people and saying, ‘debate my ideas.’ Charlie advocated for your freedom to express yourself, regardless of how you feel.”
