Owens did not provide evidence in the post to support her claim about Shapiro’s feelings toward Kirk.

The controversy began after a student asked Shapiro why he had not become a Christian during a Turning Point USA event at the University of Iowa.

“If we're going to talk about people who routinely behead Christians, by the way, there is a group on earth that actually does routinely behead Christians.

They are called radical Muslims.”

Shapiro further questioned why Carlson would accuse him of wanting to harm Christians when he had encouraged Christians to continue practising their faith.

he → question → faith
“For a guy who apparently wants to behead all the Christians, I sure spend a lot of time telling people that they should go believe in Jesus if they're Christian and then go to church.
asserted
they → want → church
I spend an awful lot of time doing that.
asserted
I → spend → that
Shapiro’s response made clear that he rejected Carlson’s interpretation of his remarks.

uncertain
statements → remain → claims
