An unknown number of public school teachers, a realtor, a radio broadcaster and a pizzeria worker are among the Nevadans who’ve been fired or are facing reprimand for social media posts about the death of Republican activist and influencer Charlie Kirk.
The motive of Kirk’s alleged shooter is still unknown, though politicians and political pundits on both sides have been quick to assign blame.
Groups on the political right are calling on businesses to terminate employees for “celebrating” Kirk’s death.
Local teachers targetedClark County School District Superintendent Jhone Ebert on Monday released a statement noting that the district has received “thousands of emails, social media posts, and direct messages” related to Kirk’s death.
Joe Lombardo last week, when asked about reports that public employees were celebrating Kirk’s death, said agencies who determine their employees acted inappropriately should remove those employees as soon as possible.
