COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho – The city of Coeur d’Alene marked a significant day as hundreds gathered at City Park to honor the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk on Tuesday. The event took place just weeks after Kirk, a conservative activist, was shot and killed while speaking at a college campus in Utah.

Tuesday night was particularly poignant as it coincided with what would have been Kirk’s birthday. The city officially recognized this day following a proclamation by Mayor McEvers.

Attendees, many wearing red shirts with slogans like ‘Freedom’ and ‘This is the Turning Point,’ gathered for what was more a celebration of life than a political rally.

Margaret, an attendee, expressed the sentiment of the evening.

“Love in the end is what’s gonna win and that’s what Charlie stood for,” she said.
