Former NFL star Robert Griffin III condemns Charlie Kirk's shooting

The death of one of the most influential political activists in America has left many people in shock. Former NFL star Robert Griffin III also condemned the shooting at Utah Valley University.

He condemned the attack on Kirk and stated that differences in political opinions should not lead to deaths.

"The Charlie Kirk Shooting was disturbing, disgusting and wrong. Praying for Charlie Kirk's wife, kids and family. It's okay to disagree with someone's political views, but celebrating his death makes your a despicable human. No one deserves to be gunned down for their beliefs."
