In a heartbreaking display of left-wing hatred, a candlelight vigil held in Boise, Idaho, to honor slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk turned violent on Wednesday evening when unhinged leftist protesters arrived to disrupt the gathering and gleefully celebrate his assassination.
Hundreds of mourners assembled at the Idaho State Capitol steps, lighting candles and offering prayers for the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder, who was fatally shot in the neck earlier that day during a campus event at Utah Valley University.
Eyewitness accounts and viral videos captured the shocking display when a group of hecklers, including local Black Lives Matter leader Terry Wilson and other activists waving rainbow flags, arrived to provoke the crowd of nearly 1,000 grieving conservatives.
Wilson, riding a scooter, drove through the vigil attendees while screaming obscenities like “F-ck Charlie Kirk,” sparking immediate confrontations.
Footage shows the situation escalating into a physical brawl where Wilson was reportedly pummeled before Boise Police Department officers intervened.
One video depicts the obese woman in a yellow shirt, and others, hurling insults, while conservatives tried to maintain composure amid the provocation.
This appalling disruption comes amid a wave of left-wing jubilation over Kirk’s murder, which Utah Governor Spencer Cox has labeled a “political assassination.”
President Donald Trump, who confirmed Kirk’s passing, blamed “radical left” rhetoric for inciting such violence and called for it to “stop now.” Yet, Democrats like Sen. Elizabeth Warren deflected pleas to tone down the heat by pointing fingers at the president and refusing to address their side’s inflammatory language.
The search for Kirk’s killer remained ongoing Thursday morning. No suspects have been named.
Two people of interest were detained in the aftermath, but have since been released.

Who cares? We know who the enemy is and what they believe.
Eyes on the prize, people. Ignore the provocation and focus on doing what needs to be done to improve this country.
Every minute we spend worrying about these radical incompetents, we lose time DOING what matters.
Look at the end of the 60's when the radicals devolved into violence. This is what they do when they're losing.
