On this edition of Your Call, we're discussing the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the far-right Turning Point USA co-founder.
The 31-year-old was responding to a question from a Utah Valley University student about mass shootings when he was shot in the neck.
Donald Trump and his allies immediately responded by blaming the "far left" and left-wing extremism for the murder without knowing who did it or what the motivation was. A number of people have lost their jobs for speaking out.
