Louisiana Representative Clay Higgins declared war against social media users celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder. The Republican congressman pledged to force technology companies to permanently ban accounts that mocked the conservative activist's death. Higgins promised to attack business permits and professional licenses while seeking educational expulsions for users who offended. The lawmaker called such online behavior evil and sick following Kirk's fatal shooting. His extreme cancellation plan targets driver's license revocation for political hatred posts.
Kirk died September 10, 2025, during a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. Police arrested Tyler Robinson, aged 22, from Washington County, as the suspected gunman. Critics question Higgins' authority over state-regulated licenses and raise free speech concerns about his proposals. Multiple fire and police departments launched investigations into employees posting inappropriate comments about the killing. The incident demonstrates growing tensions between political violence and social media accountability efforts.
