A Sheriff’s Deputy Does the Right Thing
We got some good news this morning, folks. Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old suspected of killing conservative hero Charlie Kirk, is finally in custody. And here’s the kicker – it was his own father, Matt Robinson, a 27-year veteran of the Washington County Sheriff’s Department, who turned him in.
President Trump broke the news himself on Fox & Friends Friday morning:
“I think, with a high degree of certainty, we have him in custody, right in custody. Everyone did a great job.”
He said someone “very close to him turned him in” and that he’d just learned about the arrest “five minutes before I walked in” to the TV studio.
This shows you something important about real Americans. When Matt Robinson saw those FBI photos and recognized his own son, he confronted Tyler about it. His son confessed – actually admitted he was the shooter. Even then, Matt Robinson did what was right. He didn’t make excuses. He didn’t hide behind politics. When Tyler said he’d rather kill himself than turn himself in, Matt called a youth pastor and got his son the help he needed to surrender peacefully.
What We Know About the Shooter
Tyler Robinson had become “more political in recent years” according to family members. At a recent family dinner, Robinson mentioned Charlie Kirk’s upcoming visit to Utah Valley University and talked about why he didn’t like Kirk and his viewpoints.
Robinson came from what appears to be a solid, middle-class family. His mother Amber works helping disabled people, and his father served our community for 27 years in law enforcement. This wasn’t some troubled kid from a broken home. He briefly attended Utah State University for one semester in 2021 before dropping out.
Family members said Robinson had “become more political in recent years.” Something clearly went wrong in this young man’s thinking – turning him from a normal kid from a good family into someone who would engrave anti-fascist slogans on bullets and commit political violence.
The Disturbing Evidence
Now let’s talk about what investigators found. The bullet casings had some seriously disturbing messages engraved on them. Here’s what they found:
“Notices bulges OwO what’s this?” – this comes from something called “furry” internet culture. For folks who don’t know, the “furry” community is a subculture where people dress up as animals and engage in role-playing. It’s become mixed up with radical gender ideology online.
Another casing read “Hey fascist! Catch!” – a clear reference to anti-fascist or “Antifa” rhetoric. A third had “oh bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao” – lyrics from an Italian anti-fascist song often sung at communist and far-left protests.
This isn’t random. These are the calling cards of the radical left movement that’s been poisoning our young people’s minds on college campuses.
Why This Matters to Conservatives
Charlie Kirk wasn’t just any conservative voice. He was reaching young Americans who had been written off by the establishment. Kirk founded Turning Point USA to promote free speech and conservative values on college campuses. He was doing exactly what we need more of – going to hostile environments and fighting for our values.
The left hated him for it. They couldn’t stand that he was winning over young people with common-sense conservative ideas. And now we see where that hatred led.
The Antifa Connection
Let’s be clear about what those bullet inscriptions tell us. When someone engraves anti-fascist slogans on ammunition used to kill a conservative activist, that’s not mental illness. That’s political terrorism.
Antifa has been allowed to operate with impunity for too long. They’ve attacked conservatives, burned cities, and now we have evidence linking their ideology to political assassination. It’s time we started treating Antifa like what they really are – a domestic terrorist organization.
What Conservatives Can Do
First, we need to support Charlie Kirk’s family and Turning Point USA. We need to carry on his legacy.
Second, we need to demand our representatives finally classify Antifa as a terrorist organization. No more treating these radicals like they’re just “protesters.”
Third, we need to take back our colleges. Parents need to know what’s happening to their kids when they send them off to school. We can’t keep graduating radicals who think violence is the answer to political disagreement.
The Bigger Picture
This wasn’t just an attack on Charlie Kirk. This was an attack on free speech itself. The radical left can’t win in the marketplace of ideas, so they’re turning to violence.
We’ve seen this pattern before. When conservatives start winning the argument, the left gets desperate. They can’t handle debate, so they try to silence us permanently.
But here’s what they don’t understand: we won’t be intimidated.
The fact that Tyler Robinson’s own father turned him in shows that most Americans still believe in right and wrong. Even when it’s their own family, good people know that political violence is never the answer.
We’ll keep fighting for free speech, limited government, and the values that made America great. That’s what Charlie Kirk would have wanted, and that’s what we owe his memory.
