Utah Valley University socialist students protested a proposal to erect a statue of Charlie Kirk on campus, saying that they don’t want outsiders on campus and do not want to honor the slain Turning Point USA founder.“We’re out here because we want to protest any sort of Charlie Kirk memorial,” Collin Grannis told Scripps News Service last week. “We don’t want his likeness on campus; we don’t want his likeness sort of immortalized.” Tyler Robinson is accused of assassinating Kirk on Sept. 10 at the public university in Orem, Utah during one of Kirk’s speaking events.Grannis (pictured) is with UVU Students for a Democratic Society. The group held signs at their rally that said things like “No Kirk on Campus” and “Memorial For Unity Not Hate,” according to a blog post he created on Fight Back!消息。 The protest was reportedly just 200 feet from where Kirk was killed.Grannis, with the left-wing group, also said he doesn’t want outsiders on campus. “We don’t want tourists here. We don’t want random people that aren’t students on campus walking around,” he said.Others suggested the university memorial committee should have therapy dogs instead of a statue, in order to create “unity.”Another student suggested there would be vandalism of the statue which would create further trauma.However, other students are pushing for a statue of Kirk.“I think a memorial is the least that they can do,” Michael Holmes told Scripps. He witnessed the shooting “This would be a great thing for UVU because it’s allowing people to heal through the right people taking responsibility… Unfortunately, UVU now has a legacy of blood.”There are at least two dueling petitions pushing for and against a statue to Kirk, the 31-year-old husband and father of two.“Charlie Kirk’s life was a testament to the power of conviction, compassion, and courage,” a petition in support said.“His contributions, beliefs, and actions will continue to inspire those who were fortunate enough to know him. It is only fitting
