PALM BAY, Fla. – As marches and memorials continue across the country for Charlie Kirk, another took place on Saturday in Palm Bay.

The event, planned by Palm Bay Councilmember Chandler Langevin, has been getting a lot of attention.

Dozens showed up for Saturday’s march in support of the event. But the march has also drawn criticism for several reasons including the name.

Langevin called Saturday’s event “The March for Charlie Kirk and all Victims of Left-Wing Evil.”

When asked about criticism of the event’s name, Langevin said, “They’re wrong.”

Before Saturday’s event, several people spoke about the event at Thursday’s Palm Bay City Council meeting.

“We’re on the verge of a, maybe, a civil war, and it’s not the left wing. It’s the right wing,” one speaker said.

During Saturday’s march, Langevin called for more people to be active and engaged.

“We need to get involved,” Langevin said. “We need to tell the elected officials how we feel about it and then we need to start engaging in politics and all boards and any other way that we can participate in our community to make it a better place.”

Kai Harrelson, a founding member of the new Turning Point USA chapter at Eastern Florida State College’s Melbourne campus, said she helped start the chapter because what happened to Kirk affected her personally.

“I know so many that have turned to God because we can feel how profound the spiritual warfare around our world is right now and we’re just so excited to actually help his mission and to keep going out and to continue his journey,” Harrelson said.

But one person, Suzanne Russo, was across the street during Saturday’s event.

“I do all this on my own because I nearly passed away several years ago from cancer, and I was always a big mouth,” Russo said. “But now I feel like it’s my job to speak for those who don’t have voices anymore.”

Russo said attention should be brought to all victims of gun violence.

“I don’t believe it’s proper that we’re celebrating or celebrating the life of and mourning the life of just one person from gun violence and not the people who die every day from it and the children who die because of gun violence,” Russo said. “I want to make sure that they’re all remembered, not just Mr. Kirk.”

Kirk’s memorial service is set for Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

The stadium can hold 63,000 people, but according to a report from CBS News, 100,000 people are expected to show up.

CBS reports President Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other top administration officials are expected to be in attendance.

News 6 will livestream Kirk’s memorial service on ClickOrlando.com and YouTube beginning at 2 p.m. EST.
