An Oklahoma Republican senator filed legislation Wednesday to honor conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was fatally shot during an appearance at Utah Valley University last week.
Sen. Shane Jett (R-Shawnee), chair of the Oklahoma Freedom Caucus, filed three pieces of legislation honoring Kirk.
A proposed bill would establish Kirk’s birthday, Oct. 14, as “Charlie Kirk Free Speech Day.” Another bill would require a memorial for Kirk on public college campuses, and a resolution would officially honor the conservative activist in the Legislature.
Senate Bill 1187 would require each public university to designate and develop a memorial square or plaza at its main campus in Kirk’s honor. The bill states the plaza must be in a highly visible and easily accessible location to “maximize public awareness and utilization.”
The bill would also require each plaza to include permanent signage commemorating Kirk and a statue of Kirk either sitting at a table with an empty seat across from him or standing with his wife and holding their children.
The bill states that if any student, employee or faculty member vandalizes the plaza, they would be terminated from enrollment or employment and fined for the cost of the damage.
OU Turning Point USA faculty adviser Gary Barksdale told OU Daily Friday that the student organization has already started a petition to build a statue of Kirk on the South Oval.
“I would be very proud of the University of Oklahoma if it did that,” Barksdale said, “because Charlie Kirk’s mission was going across college campuses in the United States, promoting free speech and promoting open dialogue and promoting civil discussion of important issues.”

Confederate statues aren't racist. It was about states rights and those statues are just part of their culture. And if it was racist it's because they were all Democrats back then. Never mind the fact that that Democrats are the ones trying to remove them now while Republicans want to keep them up. There's no logical inconsistency there at all because everyone is exactly the same as they were 160 years ago.

A few years ago they were mad that certain localities were trying to take certain statues down 🤔 Statues depicting people who declared war on our nation and our values 🤔 Of course, they'll still try to claim that they're the "patriotic" ones

Nothing says free speech like forcing people to put up statues of a very specific thing.

I think there will be at least a few erections. Will they arrest pigeons that accidentally poo on the statues?
