Two City of Fort Worth employees faced criticism after posting comments about Charlie Kirk following his assassination.
As previously reported by The Dallas Express, Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, was assassinated during a Q&A at Utah Valley University on September 10. The event was the first stop of the group’s “American Comeback Tour.”
Kristina Ashton, a senior administrative services manager with the Fort Worth Park & Recreation Department, criticized Kirk in a Facebook post, alleging that during a past encounter he had made remarks about women.
“Charlie Kirk told my daughter and me that we shouldn’t be able to vote. We shouldn’t go to college. And we shouldn’t take a job from a white man,” Ashton wrote.
“He said we should marry young, ignoring the wisdom of waiting for a fully formed brain and value system. He said that we should submit to our husbands completely without ever condemning those men who harm their wives. Clearly, he was willing to accept our abuse and death,” Ashton continued.
Ashton ended her post by saying she wished Kirk’s family did not have to live “in his version of America.”
Fort Worth Police East Division Commander Antione Williams faced criticism after dismissing concerns about the suspect’s reported “transgender” ties and instead blaming white male Americans for mass shootings.
“Meanwhile the right has a president who’s a pedophile blocking the release of the Epstein Files,” Williams commented on Facebook. He added, “What difference does it make if his roommate was transgender?”
As previously reported by The Dallas Express, Tyler Robinson’s “transgender” roommate, Lance Twiggs, was reportedly removed from his family home for being “problematic.”
“CK died from gun violence. Y’all want to accuse the left of being violent but what party didnt vote for the proposed bill to address gun violence?” Williams commented on Facebook.
He added, “You can’t keep screaming it’s the left when it’s a white male Americans shooting up schools and churches.”
The Dallas Express contacted Ashton and Williams for comment but did not receive a response.
