Student Debating Charlie Kirk Before Shooting Calls Out ‘Sick F*cking Psychos’ Celebrating It

The student who was debating with Charlie Kirk seconds before the conservative activist was fatally shot at Utah Valley University has spoken publicly about the tragedy and called out the “sick f*cking psychos” who were celebrating the assassination.

Hunter Kozak, a mathematics student at the college who has his own YouTube page, challenged Kirk about transgender mass shooters during a campus event. As Kirk responded, a gunshot rang out, fatally striking him in the neck.

In a video uploaded to X late Thursday, Kozak later addressed the incident on social media and the reaction he was seeing online.

“First off, you sick f*cking psychos that think this is the answer, I don’t know what else to say. It’s f*cking not. It’s awful and a father doesn’t have his kids anymore,” Kozak began.

He continued: “Charlie had two kids and a wife. And, like, not to make this about me, but I have two kids and a wife and if my 1-year-old boy, like his 1-year-old will grow up without memories of his dad, it’s a tragedy and it’s hard to grapple with.”

He added: “And I’m part of a community that’s struggling to grapple with it right now.”

Speaking about the debate he was having with Kirk at the time, Kozak said “the point” he “was trying to make is how peaceful the left was, right before he got shot.”

“That only makes sense if we stay peaceful,” he continued.

“As much as I disagree with Charlie Kirk, I’m on the record for how much I disagree with Charlie Kirk, but like, man, dude, he is still a human being. Have we forgotten that? Are we crazy? Like, I stand by so little of everything that he said, but one of the things that he stood by was conversation,” he asked.

Calling out any members of his own audience who he might find to be “salivating” over the murder, he warned them they were not welcome in the community he was “trying to build.”
