• Republicans warn against mocking Kirk’s death, threaten dire consequences
  • At least 15 people fired or suspended for allegedly disrespecting Kirk’s memory
  • Online campaigns directed by Republicans continue to target Kirk’s critics online

WASHINGTON, Sept 13 (Reuters) - After the fatal shooting of right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk, U.S. Republicans have a warning for Americans: Mourn him respectfully or suffer the consequences.

Over the past several days, Democratic and Republican leaders have widely condemned the murder of Kirk, a 31-year-old activist and Trump world celebrity known for his hard-right views and pugnacious debating style.

    Hey Kirk fans,

    I’ll show him just as much respect as the right showed the minnesota democrats who were attacked by a right wing nut job (just like Kirk was, I might add)
