Hailey Welch, popularly referred to as the "Hawk Tuah" girl, took to Instagram to address all the haters who were celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination. She began her video by apologizing for speaking about it days after it happened. However, she had her reasons for it. Welch said that she needed a few days to "debrief". Hailey Welch also added that she is not one to talk about serious issues on her Instagram page, but "it needs to be talked about".

After videos of Charlie Kirk's assassination went viral on the internet, two sides emerged. The side that mourned the loss of a life, the death of a father, and a husband. However, the other side is dark and ugly, with people celebrating, cheering, and applauding Kirk's passing.

Hailey Welch is addressing the latter side of the internet. She began by saying:

"At the end of the day, I really don't care if you like what I have to say or not."

Hailey Welch, a.k.a. "Hawk Tuah" girl, condemns people who celebrated Charlie Kirk's death

After letting the viewers know that she is going to speak her truth about the incident regarding people celebrating the loss of Charlie Kirk's life, she began:

"Over the past few days, I saw some of the most outrageous and heinous things that you could possibly see on this app. I don't really give a sh*t who I offend when I say this, but for some people to get on this app and applaud for another human being being unalived, in front of his family at that, is f**king sick."
"You're a sick f**king individual," Welch emphasizes.

She further added:

"You did not have to agree with anything that man said, not a single thing he said, preached, practiced, anything. But you should have a little bit of sympathy for his wife, his kids that were there with him, and just be f**king respectful, like the man literally just passed away, like, two or three days ago, like, that's no way to f**king be."

She also has a message specifically to those who did not agree with Kirk. She said:

"And if you didn't like him, you don't have nothing nice to say, don't f**king say nothing at all. Oh my god, is it that f**king hard? You don't have nothing nice to say, don't say a f**king word at all."

Hailey Welch added:

"What you people don't realize, we are more alike than we are different. We all bleed the same f**king color at the end of the day, and that's one of the biggest problems with this country right now. Y'all wanna divide so bad. Why?"

Hailey continues:

"This is supposed to be a time where all of us come together, work together, and try to make this country so much better than it is, and it's not gonna get any better, unless we do that. If this past week hasn't opened so many of y'alls eyes, man, we live in a mean and an evil a** world."

She also spoke about the Ukrainian girl who was stabbed to death as an example. Hailey Welch said:

"We just had an innocent girl just get her life took from her on a f**king train she was on, I believe it was a train, subway, something."

Welch also touched upon women's rights by saying:

"And that's another thing that really upsets me. A woman should be allowed to go anywhere she wants to by herself, and should not have to fear for her life."

Hailey Welch concluded:

"But at the end of the day, I don't really give a f**k. I just offended. I don't care, unfollow me. It's not that big of a f**kin' deal. Bye. So, let's stop being evil for just a second and let's pray for these families... and before you go, let's not forget, let's start showing a bit more compassion around here and be a hell of a lot nicer. If you just can't seem to do that, then you have a f**king day you deserve, and the chickens will be coming home to roost your a**. Good day."

Hailey Welch condemned those celebrating Charlie Kirk's death, calling it cruel and disrespectful to his grieving family. She urged people to show compassion, set aside divisions, and choose kindness over hate.
