NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

The conservatives gather around a message of “renewal” following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, with two commentators saying to Fox News Digital that the right response to the death of Kirk contrasts strongly with the way in which the left reacted to the death of George Floyd, Michael Brown and other cases with high profile involving the police.

“After Charlie’s assassination, we did not see violence. We have not seen riots,” Charlie Kirk’s widow told Charlie Kirk on Sunday in Arizona.

“We have not seen the revolution. Instead, we saw what my husband has always asked him to see in this country,” she continued. “We saw the renewal.”

In the wake of Kirk’s assassination, the conservatives on social networks have noted The contrast between the conservative response to the assassination of Kirk and the response of the Democrats following the death of George Floyd and other controversial political events.

Floyd’s death in 2020 sparked a chain reaction of violent protests causing at least hundreds of millions of dollars in damages in cities like Minneapolis, Portland and Seattle, many of whom were agitated by elected democrats preaching a police financing message.

What remains after the violent summer of 2020 was a massive increase in the number of murders, bringing a disproportionate blow to black Americans, Fox News Digital previously reported.

“Let’s be blurred: when Charlie Kirk was murdered, the Conservatives did not move, loot or torch,” Fox News Digital told Fox. “As Erika said that we gathered, we prayed and we kissed the renewal. It is the difference between the right and the left – and it is clear as the day. The conservatives do not respond by destruction, because our movement is fueled by faith, not rabies.”

“Compare this to compare this with the response from the left to George Floyd in 2020: riots torn the cities, billions of damage, burned businesses and neighborhoods have never re -established themselves. From Baltimore to Portland, justice ” is armed as a twisted justification of violence.”

Brilyn Hollyhand, a 19 -year -old political commentator who was a friend of Kirk’s, told Fox News Digital only when he had received the text that his mentor had been murdered: “My first thought was not to burn a Wendy or a pillage of a CVS.”

“My first thought was prayer. Prayer for her soul, family and team,” said Hollyhand. “Then, during the stages of sorrow, when I became frustrated that my friend was murdered just for her political convictions, I did not complex my blue hair, obtained a nose ring and take a megaphone – I wanted to do something efficient with this frustration.”

Hollyhand says he will associate himself with Tpusa, founded the Kirk organization, to speak of 10 campuses this next semester in order to “continue the inheritance of Charlie to defend civilian discourse”.

Cooke called “deeply significant” that the conservatives “have chosen peace in the face of tragedy” and that “our actions spoke stronger than their riots”.

Since the death of Kirk, the conservatives have held upwards across the country and have set up commemorative monuments, some have vandalized by Kirk opponents, honoring the political commentator and rejecting calls for violence.

In recent years since the riots of Floyd, liberal activists have descended on the street several times to oppose republican policies, including earlier this year, when violent demonstrations broke out to Los Angeles in response to President Trump sending federal resources to carry out his immigration agend and deport illegal immigrants.

These riots, which several elected democrats have described as “peaceful”, will cost taxpayers at least $ 32 million, Fox News Digital earlier

Tyler Robinson, the 22 -year -old suspect, accused of the murder of Charlie Kirk, looked a lot like the other young men her husband met, Erika Kirk said to the commemorative service.

Charlie Kirk “wanted to save young men, just like the one who took his life,” she told The Massive Crowd at the State Farm Stadium.

“Our Savior said:” Father, forgive them because they don’t know what they are doing. “This young man … I forgive him,” said Erika Kirk, pulling a standing ovation. “I forgive him because that was what Christ did, and that’s what Charlie would do.”
