Kaniya-kaniyang komento ang netizens sa naturang post:
"RiP brother..... You were a blazing light and we were for a moment willing to bask under it."
"A true American and a great example for all of us who love Jesus Christ"
"Charlie Kirk heard these words today; His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant"
"We are praying for the Kirk family over what occurred today. May the Lord bring them a peace only He can provide. Rest easy Charlie. What a sick & evil world we live in. Lord, come back quickly!!"
"Charlie just heard “well done, My good and faithful servant”"
"You'll be missed but never forgotten. Rest in peace!"
"I've been holding back tears all day. For children and a wife to lose such a devoted husband and father hurts me to the core. I've never met you, but your content has made an impact on me. I'm a father of four and I couldn't imagine them not having me in their lives. It breaks my heart to know. But it enrages me to no end that this is what THEY resort to. It's hard to be civil when the other side doesn't play by the rules that they claim to adhere to."
"We will indeed see him again! He had a calling, that was a mission to share Christ with his own age & younger! He was a warrior for Our Country."
