Sadly, not all of these signs have been left alone. On Facebook, the Walton County, GA Sheriff’s Office shared how one road sign had been vandalized with a two-word claim against Kirk.
The killing of Kirk sent shockwaves across the US. While millions mourned the murder, it has also led to even more political polarization, and questions about what free speech really means have been brought up by many on social media.
Still, while many might not argue with Charlie Kirk’s opinions, people have paid their respects. That said, there have been several incidents where individuals have expressed rather distasteful opinions about the conservative political influencer in public.
On Monday, it happened again, this time in Atlanta. The Tire Dock in Loganville, Walton County, Georgia, had put up a sign on Highway 78 which read “In loving memory of Charlie Kirk.” Sadly, the sign was defaced.
Speaking with Fox, Loganville Police Chief Dick Lowry said the vandalized sign was discovered early Monday. The sign often read “In Loving Memory,” and this particular time, it displayed a tribute to Charlie Kirk.

On Facebook, the Walton County, GA Sheriff’s Office posted several pictures of the vandalism, urging the public for tips on who was responsible.
“Walton County Sheriffs Office takes pride in all things Walton County as evidenced by a deputy cleaning this sign,” the post read.
“Sheriff Brooks wants to make it perfectly clear. Not one law enforcement agency in Walton County will stand for this behavior. The Sheriff will use all resources to assist Loganville PD in identifying and arresting the individuals responsible for this conduct.”
The post concluded: “Not everyone agrees with the beliefs of Charlie Kirk but everyone owes respect to those who are mourning his death. He was a husband, a father and a friend. If you know who did this graffiti, the Sheriff would love to hear from you.”
