A video circulating on X depicts a young man stealing TPUSA MAGA hats from a table at Utah Valley University moments after conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was fatally shot on campus. The footage captures the individual taking the hats, prompting law enforcement to confront him.
Kirk, 31, a founder of Turning Point USA and a prominent right-leaning activist, was delivering a speech under a tent in Orem, Utah, when he was struck by a single gunshot to the neck. He collapsed, was transported to a hospital, and later died. The incident has sparked widespread outrage, with critics condemning the escalating tensions surrounding political violence.
The video, shared on TikTok by @suxiequite, shows the man retrieving hats from a merchandise tent labeled “The American Comeback.” Amid the chaos, voices off-camera urge him to “grab me a hat,” as he tosses one to an individual before taking two more. Security personnel intervene, shouting, “What are you doing? Get the f out.” The footage ends with another man picking up a red hat, its white text obscured.
The incident has drawn condemnation, highlighting a disturbing disregard for dignity in the wake of a tragedy.
