From the information that has been released by the police, it sounds like this Tyler dude had help with the shooting. So I wonder when his accomplice is gonna get caught as well...

PeanutButter 09-12-2025 08:53 AM

Sheesh. What's the play if you find out your son just assassinated someone?

That's pretty messed up.

You should get involved and help them out, PeanutButter.

A clergy member helped turn in suspect

We have more details about how Robinson was turned in to law enforcement.

Two law enforcement sources tell CBS News, the BBC's US partner, Tyler Robinson's father relayed his son's confession to a clergy member - the family friend we heard about earlier.

That clergy member took the tip to the US Marshals Service, and then Robinson was detained.

Earlier in the morning, President Trump told Fox News that a "minister" was involved in helping authorities detain Robinson.

It is unclear what religion or denomination the clergy person is affiliated with.

It's Utah ... 99.9% chance it is Mormon.

Surprised that shooter's father, family didn't share with PB and asked him for his opinion through this.

whitev70r 09-12-2025 06:34 PM

Q: did the father get the $100K, FBI reward for information leading to his arrest?

He is also in line for a $1m from Bill Ackman as he put up a reward as well.

well I just took the opposite bet, so pay up next time. cuz you're gonna lose this bet for sure.

I bet that you're gonna justify the next assassination. whoever that person is, you're gonna justify it with some personal value you have.

I put my money on that.

So you don't believe in the death penalty?

mikemhg 09-13-2025 07:54 AM

No one should die for their views, but I'm a firm believer you play with fire you can get burned.

Let's not pretend Charlie Kirk was some angel of a man, he ran a network pushing some very divisive and racist ideas. He pushed white supremacist ideologies, spewed a lot of hateful and racist rhetoric. This is the same guy who claimed that empathy is bullshit, proposed that black people were too stupid to attain the skills and education to enter career fields such as being a pilot, and that if you saw a black pilot it was simply because "DEI", the now classic dog whistle of the modern era.

Imagine being a young black kid and hearing this asshole come to your school trying to indoctrinate other kids by spreading that type of bullshit? Fuck that.

Words matter, and when you push out hate, hate can come back your way. I feel for the man's family, but he died playing this culture war game to his own economic benefit that is destroying society.

There is an irony is many ways that he died while trying to spread a falsehood that gun violence is perpetrated by "trans" people and "gangs" aka negros, meanwhile 99% of mass shootings are conducted by white men, notably the man who shot him.

Badhobz 09-13-2025 08:15 AM

It’s true. Last time i recall a black guy doing a mass shooting was that sniper dude who shot people out of his van… that’s like 10 years or more…

US is fucked. You elected that guy, unfortunately you’re stuck with him for the next 3.5 years. GOOD RUCK WITH THAT!

whitev70r 09-13-2025 11:01 AM

I find myself right where mikehmg is in terms of perspective on this incident. Didn't like the guy, did a lot of harm with his rhetoric but didn't 'deserve' to be assassinated and I feel for his family.

... you can call it Ebony and Ivory ... I mean mikey and I.

Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin lived with transgender partner who is now cooperating with FBI: Officials

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/cha...ng-fbi-sources

Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin lived with his transgender partner, senior-level FBI officials told Fox News Digital.

Bureau officials confirmed that Tyler Robinson, 22, was in a "romantic relationship" with the unnamed person, who is a male transitioning to a female, and that they shared an apartment in Saint George, Utah. Those FBI officials told Fox News Digital that Robinson's partner is fully cooperating with the FBI's investigation.

Ya they are not racist.

Dude, the DC sniper was like 23 fucking years ago.

Excuse me while I go cry.

Harvey Specter 09-13-2025 04:33 PM

The Utah governor is a dope. On one hand, he’s basically dog whistling that he hoped it was a foreigner and on the other he’s preaching about both sides needing to calm down and lower the division. Make up your mind.

Harvey Specter 09-13-2025 04:35 PM

Btw, he had an interesting call with Trump...

Quote:

Trump Called Utah Governor With Grim Warning Moments After He Spoke at Charlie Kirk Press Conference.

Speaking to The Atlantic‘s McKay Coppins, Cox said Trump called him not long after he gave an impassioned plea for peace in the wake of Kirk’s death on Friday.
“‘You know, the type of person who would do something like that to Charlie Kirk would love to do it to us,'” Trump said, according to Cox. Trump then informed Cox that being president is “one of the most dangerous jobs on the planet,” rattling off stats that 15% of those to occupy the White House had been shot. And 8% have died at the hands of an assassin.

Apparently hitting someone in the neck from 150 yards is easy with a bolt-action rifle. Just like the movies...

I would have expected the shooter to have military experience or something.

The article seems to boil down to the point that marines with basic training could've done this.

Quote:

Every U.S. Marine Corps recruit in basic training must hit a human-size silhouette target at 200, 300 and 500 yards to graduate, Pleasants said; U.S. Army soldiers must hit a target at 300 meters, or 350 yards.
I don't think those are head shots that marines gotta hit. The shooter had tons of experience with a rifle and his shot was able to land a lethal hit because he was trained.
