00:11seeking others that felt the same and wanting to help lift others up and find

00:22a way to serve others that might be feeling the same way.

00:26The biggest impact that he had for me was his his tie to faith and his

00:38respectfulness to other people and I do think that people that relate to him also

00:45can see friends or family and be respectful and differing opinions.

00:54He's a human being and I do believe that every human being has a right to say

00:59what they want to say. You know that that's what America's built upon is free

01:03speech. He also helped my wife a lot through her college through the

01:08scholarships that Turning Point USA offers.

01:13We had just finished a work meeting and we're eating lunch and one of my coworkers

01:17was like hey Charlie Kirk got shot. I was like Charlie Kirk got shot in Utah. It was pretty shocking.

01:23You know you don't really associate that with Utah. He's just been all over the
