A Father’s Fearful Day: Glenn Beck Recalls Campus Chaos
During a recent campus event, Glenn Beck described one of the most terrifying days of his life, centered on his daughter’s close proximity to the violence that erupted. According to Beck, she was reportedly only ten feet away from the scene involving Charlie Kirk.
He recounted the panic and uncertainty that followed, as he struggled to reach his daughter. While she had sent text messages, it took time to get her on the phone amid the chaos unfolding around her.
Beck emphasized his immediate concern for her safety, asking first if she had her Byrna launcher with her — a precaution he had repeatedly instructed her to carry while on campus. Though she did not have it at the time, Beck explained that having such a tool would have provided him some reassurance during the chaos.
The incident reportedly occurred in the early afternoon, yet Beck did not see his daughter until 8 PM, highlighting the long, anxious hours spent waiting for confirmation of her safety. He described the visible signs of trauma his daughter experienced, reflecting the emotional weight of the day.
Through his account, Beck underscored the importance of preparedness and the measures families can take to ensure safety. While the events themselves were unpredictable, having tools and strategies for protection can provide a sense of security in otherwise uncontrollable situations.
