Charlie Kirk’s assassin Tyler Robinson had become increasingly political in recent years and ranted just before killing him that the conservative activist was “full of hate,’’ officials said Friday.
Robinson, a 22-year-old former student at Utah Valley University, was seething about Kirk’s upcoming campus appearance during a dinner days before he fatally shot the close friend of President Trump, authorities said.
The suspect went on about how he “didn’t like [Kirk] and the viewpoints he had,’’ said Utah Gov. Spencer Cox at a press briefing, explaining a family friend at the dinner had recalled the exchange for authorities.

Three unfired casings found in the chamber of the rifle reportedly used by Robinson included left-wing slogans such as “Hey fascist! Catch!” engraved on the side along with an up arrow, a right arrow and three down arrows.
Another featured the words “Oh bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao,” referencing a popular Italian anti-fascist song, Cox said.
A third casing, engraved “If you read this, you are gay LMAO [laugh my a– off]” was found in the chamber of the weapon, a Mauser model 98 bolt-action rifle with a scope mounted on it.

The inscription on the fired casing read, “notices, bulges, OWO, what’s this?” Gov. Cox said.
Photos of him shared by his mother on social media seem to show a normal, happy family.

There is no indication of a prior criminal record, a search of state and national public records shows, as authorities continue to build up a picture of Robinson’s actions and words in the days leading up to the shooting.
Authorities interviewed Robinson’s roommate, who showed them many Discord messages from the suspect sent after the shooting, including ones telling him to retrieve a rifle and giving details about where it would be found, wrapped in a towel, in a wooded area close to the Utah Valley University campus.

Other messages from Robinson said that he had changed his outfit in the wake of the shooting, Cox said.
Robinson was turned in after his father recognized him in photos released by the FBI on Thursday, law enforcement sources told The Post.

can they all be under the incel umbrella or are they totally unrelated?
But, the important question we want to know is did he start to transition? Did he have a relationship to AI?

You’re still watching them, Doc?
I think depending on the level BP and bullet it can happen.
An ex officer that started a church.
That wasn't what I was referring to. I was asking if they had decided he needed to die for the cause or just get injured

I believe they felt he needed to die since he was saying too much shit being a breeding for other racist to feel comfortable about his hatred speech.
I'm sure he won't be at the NECK event.

If he makes it to court, maybe ill believe this if it comes out of his mouth. As far as im concerned, this is just a spin to blame the other side.
They are already starting the college changed him narrative.
