Hunter Kozak, the student who asked Charlie Kirk a question about transgender shooters before Kirk was shot in the neck, has broken his silence with a video statement.The video was picked up by CNN and aired on OutFront with Erin Burnett.But before we get to Kozak’s statement, let’s quickly glance back at his conversation with Kirk before he was fatally shot in the neck:KOZAK: “Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the last 10 years?”KIRK: “Too many.”CROWD CHEERSKOZAK: “It’s five. Okay. Now, five is a lot, right? I’m gonna give you some credit. Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America over the last 10 years?”KIRK: “Counting or not counting gang violence?”Shooter opens fire and hits Charlie Kirk in the neck. He goes limp.https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/kozak.mp4Afterward, Kozak faced backlash for ironically asking a question about transgender shooters just before Kirk was fatally shot. Kozak himself has since called the moment “ironic.”What was equally ironic was this line from his video response: “The point that I was trying to make is how peaceful the left was (long pause) right before he got shot.”It’s unclear whether Kozak fully realized the weight of his words. He said he wanted to prove a point about the left being peaceful — only for Kirk to go down moments later.See Kozak’s full response below:“People have obviously pointed to the irony that I was [asking a question about shootings just before Kirk was shot]. The point that I was trying to make is how peaceful the left was (long pause) right before he got shot.“And that only makes sense if we stay peaceful. And as much as I disagree with Charlie Kirk — I’m on the record for how much I disagree with Charlie Kirk — but like man, dude, he is still a human being. Have we forgotten that? Are we crazy?”https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/foxs-video-sep-11-2025-veed-14.mp4NOTE: In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s tragic death, VigilantFox.com is fully committed to covering this story from every angle.We believe this is a pivotal moment that will shape the future of left vs. right, as we work to uncover exactly what happened — and why.We will not let up in covering this story and giving it the full attention it deserves.
