LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson’s daughter, Ava Raine, was slammed online for making an insensitive comment that appeared to be a direct jab at Charlie Kirk just hours after he was shot dead.

The 31-year-old conservative icon was shot in the neck on September 10 while attending a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University. The shooter was arrested two days later and identified as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson.



 

Ava Raine made a cryptic post after Charlie Kirk's death

Ava Raine shared an X post from comedian Gianmarco Soresi on her Instagram story, which read, “If you want people to have kind words when you pass, you should say kind things when you’re alive.”

Although the post did not name Charlie Kirk, Raine doubled down by adding a comment of her own in a repost on her X account. She wrote, “And I’ll stand behind this. Be kind, now more than ever.”

Her posts, shared just hours after Kirk was killed, sparked swift outrage from internet users.

Interestingly, the Carolina Panthers fired football communications coordinator Charlie Rock on September 11 after he made an “insensitive social media post” following Kirk’s death.

Similarly, MSNBC political analyst Matthew Dowd was also fired after saying during immediate coverage of Kirk’s killing that his actions led to his death.

Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Section Chief Sean Kelly was also dismissed after an undercover clip went viral showing him laughing about the shooting of Kirk and saying he “kind of deserved it.”

Moreover, American and Delta airlines fired pilots and employees who were allegedly “caught celebrating” Kirk’s death.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said in a statement, “Pilots who were caught celebrating the killing of Charlie Kirk have been immediately grounded and removed from service by @AmericanAir. This behavior is disgusting and they should be fired. Any company responsible for the safety of the traveling public cannot tolerate that behavior.”

Internet slams Ava Raine for her post

Several internet users criticized Ava Raine for making an insensitive comment that appeared to be a direct jab at Charlie Kirk just hours after he was shot dead.

One user wrote on X, “You would NOT have a job if it wasn’t for your father being The Rock,” while another added, “You’re an evil person.”



 



 

Another person stated, “I’m guessing you never actually sat down and watched one of his events. You’re just going off of sound bites and stories from one political standpoint. You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I think your ignorance is glaring here.” One commenter pointed out, “This coming from a woman who got death threats last year?”  



 



 

another asked, “So if someone says something you don’t like or agree with that gives you the right to kill them?” A user also wrote, “Hey @TripleH and @WWE do you want this representing the younger part of the company jw?”



 



 

Another person added, “I’ll celebrate your firing though the Rock will keep your life easy.”
