Commentary
Last week, a mere six days after Charlie Kirk was killed in Utah, another famous American died in Utah. I refer, of course, to the passing of Robert Redford. Unlike the jarring way by which Charlie Kirk left this world, Redford’s death was gentle—a peaceful transition. Robert Redford lived a life filled with many accomplishments over the course of his 89-year sojourn on Earth, and his demise was a result of natural causes.
