FOLEY AL: This morning while riding down the road all of a sudden I opened the camera and asked Dalton and Mac their opinions on Charlie Kirk. This was done without warning or rehearsal.
Dalton and Mac are from Covington Tennessee and moved to Foley about 3 years ago. Dalton keeps up with politics and is always watching the news on his phone.
RSN wanted to see their thoughts and feelings about the assination of Charlie Kirk, the person arrested, and how Republicans and Democrats handle tragic issues.
There is no viable or reasonable answer or explanation for the assination of Charlie Kirk. A man that was willing to debate issues, most especially to young peolple. Charlie Kirk believed that people needed to discuss thier thoughts, debate those thoughts, listening to each other. The only way to survive is to have open dialogue.
