The Crowd Man's Own Post: I Am Terrified
What This Image Shows
A mobile screenshot of a post on X from an account named David, handle @RtothepowerofX. Attached to the post is a blurry high-angle photograph of a crowd outdoors, people ducking or lying down, with a man in a red cap and another in a tan cap and black shirt visible in the middle of the crush.
The post text is the reason this image is filed here. It reads in part: "Losing Charlie Kurk is heavy, and we are still mourning. Trust that I'll be explaining myself very soon, but every lie about me brings me one step closer to becoming very dead and at the hands of the mob. Should I die for hate or entertainment? Truth will satisfy neather appetite. I'm a Father, and I feel the weight of Charlie's loss to his family... I didn't wish to have my face everywhere, I'm terrified for my family and sad for Charlie's too... Please pray for Charlie's Family." The misspellings are in the original.
This is the subject of the crowd-footage identification speaking for himself, saying he is being misidentified and that it is putting him in danger. The site keeps it because a person's own response belongs next to the claims made about him. Online researchers have attached several different names to this same man, none confirmed by any reliable on-the-record source, and being present in a crowd or reacting to a shooting is not evidence of involvement in anything.
