Here's what some of the bullet casing engravings in the Charlie Kirk shooting mean

Unfired cartridges found with the gun that officials say was used to kill Charlie Kirk were engraved with a variety of messages, authorities said Friday, including many that suggest a familiarity with anti-fascist symbolism and the insider slang of video games and online culture that pervade the lives of young Americans. Many of the messages, described by Gov. Spencer Cox of Utah at a news conference announcing the arrest of Tyler Robinson, 22, adopt the flippant, sarcastic, in-jokey chatter often found on online message boards and in-game chats.
