An Edmonton drag performer’s post stating “Miss Smith next, please and thank you” in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s killing has caught the attention of local law enforcement authorities.
The Edmonton Police confirmed to True North that they are aware of the post and “are looking into it.”
Aldynne Belmont — who also goes by the names Fox McCloud and Bunny Lebowski —
posted on X, celebrating Kirk’s assassination before suggesting “Miss Smith” should be “next” accompanied by a picture of an individual holding a firearm.
“Charlie Kirk is no more. I hope he felt terrified, and I hope the rest of this kind are just as scared,” said Belmont. “Miss Smith next, please and thank you.”
Belmont’s Instagram and LinkedIn accounts were also shown in the post. The drag artist currently works as a Researcher for Rainbow Story Hub Foundation.
The social media accounts mentioned have since been disabled.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith did not comment on the posts, however a spokesperson referred True North to her
Wednesday X post.
“Political violence has no place in a free and democratic society and must be condemned without reservation,” said Smith.
Belmont
joins a litany of vile posts reacting to Kirk’s assassination, which left his wife a widow and his children aged three and one without a father.
U.S. President Donald Trump
has vowed a crackdown on the “radical left,” along with any other organizations enabling political violence in America.
Kirk’s killer remains on the loose, and the
FBI is offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to their identification or arrest.
The U.S. State Department has barred foreigners who “glorify” Kirk’s Assassination form entering the country.
