Utah governor Spencer Cox has sparked criticism after he said Friday, September 12, that he had hoped Charlie Kirk's shooter "wouldnt be one of us". On Friday, it was announced that the suspect arrested for the a$$assination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk is Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old white man from a pro-gun family with parents who are registered Republicans. Speaking at a press conference, Cox said while he was grateful for the quick arrest of a suspect in Charlie Kirks a$$assination, he had hoped the suspect wouldnt be one of us, hoping it would be someone from another state or country. He said he thought it would make it easier to be able to say, We dont do that here. For 33 hours, I was praying that if this had to happen here that it wouldn't be one of us that somebody drove from another state, somebody came from another country Sadly, that prayer was not answered the way I hoped for But it did happen here, and it was one of us, Cox said. His statement has sparked criticisms.  Watch the video below.      View this post on Instagram           A post shared by Lindaikejiblog (@lindaikejiblogofficial) The post "I had been praying that this person was from another country" Utah governor Spencer Cox says he had hoped Charlie Kirk shooter "wouldn't be one of us" appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
