Conservative activist Charlie Kirk spoke out Wednesday about an incident this week where he and a colleague from his right-wing student group Turning Point USA were assaulted by a group of far-left protesters in Philadelphia.

Speaking to co-host Buck Sexton, Kirk said that he and his colleague Candace Owens did not intend to press charges against their assailants, who were reportedly part of the antifa movement.

Kirk also claimed that the national press would have covered the incident much more had it been about a group of liberals being assaulted by far-right demonstrators.

The Turning Point founder also called on liberals to become more aware and willing to denounce far-left groups that advocate violence.

“We as conservatives take pride in kicking out right-wing identitarians [white nationalists] or people that get too much on the fringe—whether violence comes involved or when they cross the line,” he said.

Kirk continued: “The liberals never kick out the radicals in their ranks. They embrace them, they encourage it. And that’s something that needs to be talked about more.”
