Kris Herzog, owner of The Bodyguard Group of Beverly Hills, who used to work with Kirk, had warned him. He said his team believed Kirk’s security was “not even close" to what it should have been.


“Everyone in my group felt that his security was not even close to what it should be and he was in grave danger of being shot and killed at one of his upcoming events," Herzog told The Mirror.

Charlie was a patriot who devoted his life to the cause of open debate and the country that he loved so much, the United States of America. He fought for liberty, democracy, justice, and the American people. He's a martyr for truth and freedom, and there's never been anyone who was so respected by youth.
