\n One day after the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk, Utah House Democrats denounced receiving a threatening call, CNN affiliate KSTU reported.<\/a>\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cYou should leave the f***ing state. You should find somewhere else to f***ing live, you murderous, terrorist animals,\u201d a man said in the voicemail obtained by KSTU, which was left on the House Minority Caucus\u2019 general number.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cYou despicable f***ing, subhuman f***ing, violent disgusting f***ing animals,\u201d the voicemail went on. \u201cYou murdered that man in front of his f***ing family, you evil f***ing pieces of s*** subhuman f***ing garbage.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n House Minority Leader Angela Romero, who represents Salt Lake City, told KSTU she was alarmed by the \u201cthreatening\u201d message.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cWe don\u2019t know who the shooter was, we don\u2019t know what their intent was,\u201d Romero told KSTU. \u201cSomebody was murdered, somebody was executed and we all agree that was wrong.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Romero said vitriol has \u201cescalated\u201d but \u201cI think we can tone it down if we all work together.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cI don\u2019t know if everyone is willing to do that,\u201d she added.\n <\/p>\n

\n House Speaker Mike Schultz, a Republican representing Hooper, also condemned political violence, KSTU reported.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cPolitical violence should never happen, any type of violence should never happen, and the fact that it\u2019s continuing to happen, the Minnesota shootings a few months ago, now this. We can do better,\u201d he said, referring to the fatal shootings of Minnesota\u2019s former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband in June.\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One day after the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk, Utah House Democrats denounced receiving a threatening call, CNN…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11119,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[146,85,46,409],"class_list":["post-11118","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11118","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11118"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11118\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11119"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11118"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11118"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11118"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
