Letters: Front-page story didn't capture full measure of Charlie Kirk

You missed the fact that Kirk was the Pied Piper of the conservative movement. He took to Twitter and college campuses during the Trump campaign and created an incredible movement within the Republican Party. He was instrumental in helping Donald Trump get re-elected. Additionally, there was no mention of his Christian faith and how he has led many youth to Jesus Christ and changed their lives for the better. Of course, those facts don't fit your left-leaning narrative. His legacy will live on.
