Charlie Kirk’s widow has insisted American doesn’t have a ‘gun problem’.For those in need of a reminder, the right-wing activist was fatally shot back in September at a Republican rally he hosted at Utah Valley University.Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old suspected shooter, is believed to have fired a single bullet at 31-year-old Kirk in the presence of 3,000 spectators, including his wife Erika, with whom he shared a three-year-old daughter, and a son, one.
Despite the heartache that she and her children have endured in the wake of Kirk’s death, his widow doesn’t believe that guns should take any element of the blame.Instead, appearing at the The New York Times’ Dealbook Conference on Wednesday (3 December), she hit out at Robinson’s state of mind, as well as divisive politics in general.
