\nAttending the discussion in Utah, Emma Pitts, a reporter for Deseret News, told the BBC, \u201cWe all dropped to the ground, and I want to say we sat like that for about 30 to 45 seconds, and then everyone around us got up and started running.\u201d<\/p>\n
Amid the horrific tragedy, a tweet by Kirk from 2014 has resurfaced which read, \u201cDid I just get shot by an AR-15? Feels like it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIn honor of Charlie Kirk, a truly Great American Patriot, I am ordering all American Flags throughout the United States lowered to Half Mast until Sunday evening at 6 P.M,\u201d he added on social media.<\/p>\n

She wrote on X: \u201cI am deeply disturbed by the shooting in Utah. Doug and I send our prayers to Charlie Kirk and his family.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLet me be clear: Political violence has no place in America. I condemn this act, and we all must work together to ensure this does not lead to more violence.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
