Charlie Kirk DID say stoning gay people was the 'perfect law' " and these other heinous quotes
Kirk invoked a Bible verse about stoning gay people "to death" on a June 2024 episode of his podcast with Jack Posobiec, calling it "God's perfect law when it comes to sexual matters."

"There's a direct connection to inflation and the trans issue. You say, Charlie, come on. They couldn't be further apart. No, they're exactly the same. They're the same in this aspect"when you believe that men can become women, why wouldn't you also believe that you could print wealth? If you believe that someone can change their gender, why wouldn't you also believe that money is wealth?"

Kirk tweeted last month that "it should be legal to burn a rainbow or [Black Lives Matter] flag in public."
"We should work to overturn every conviction for those arrested, fined, or otherwise harassed for the hate crime' of doing donuts over Pride flags painted on public streets," he said.

Kirk said in a September 2023 speech that trans people are "throbbing middle finger to God." He then directly addressed University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas, a trans woman, deadnaming her and telling her "you're an abomination to God."
..
Kirk blamed the so-called "decline of American men" on trans equality in an interview with failed college swimmer Riley Gaines, saying people should have "just took care of" trans people "the way we used to take care of things in the 1950s and 60s" " which independent journalist Erin Reed notes notes included lobotomies, shock therapy, and involuntary institutionalization. Others interpreted it as advocating for lynchings or physical violence against trans people.

Kirk said in an April 2024 episode of his podcast, clipped by Media Matters, that doctors who provide gender-affirming care should be prosecuted like the Nazis were after World War II.
"Her daughter all of a sudden came home and said, 'I'm a boy.' She said, 'what?' And the whole assembly line, the conveyor belt was started to grind," Kirk said. "They wanted to give her cross-sex hormones. They wanted to give her testosterone therapy. They wanted to cut off her breasts. They wanted to do all these sorts of things, and these doctors do this without any thought whatsoever. Yeah. Sure. Here's the script. Here's the clinic. Go here. Go for surgery. These doctors need to be put in prison quickly. We need to have a Nuremberg-style trial for every gender-affirming clinic doctor. We need it immediately."

When asked if he would support his children if they came out as gay or trans, Kirk said he would not, calling trans identities a "social contagion" that can be explained by "the autism spectrum" and "puberty anxiety."
"I don't affirm delusions. You do not affirm what is harmful or what is not true," Kirk said. "And you must find the underlying issue as to why this is happening. ... Young women have always been more prone to social contagions, and transgenderism is a social contagion. A 5,000 percent increase in transgenderism is not normal. Everybody is an external force upon our nation's youth."
