Tavia shared a screenshot of a tweet from "Libs of Tiktok."

“When a man’s life is ended in public for living different beliefs, leaving a wife without a husband and 2 children without a father And you dismiss or celebrate it, that has nothing to do with who he was, that is a reflection of who you are,” Tavia tweeted.

Kirk, a 31-year-old conservative speaker and founder of Turning Point USA, was killed while speaking at Utah Valley University.

He was answering questions about topics like transgender rights and gun laws when he got shot in the neck. It happened in front of thousands of students.

Charlie left behind his wife, Erika Kirk, and their two young kids. Erika has promised to carry on his work and said that she already forgave the man accused of killing her husband during the memorial.

The suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, has been arrested and charged with murder. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.
