‘Bella Ciao’ Inscription on Charlie Kirk Assassin’s Ammo References Song Idolized Among Antifa
One of the inscriptions on an ammunition casing of alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson is a clear reference to the song “Bella Ciao,” which is idolized in Antifa circles.
At a press conference Friday morning, Gov. Spencer Cox (R-UT) detailed the pro-Antifa inscriptions on ammunition recovered from the gun used by Kirk’s assassin. One message on an unfired casing read, “O Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao.”
The words are the chorus to “Bella Ciao,” a famous Italian song that dates back to World War II, and was popularized by the Italian partisans, or communists, who were against dictator Benito Mussolini. In English, “bella ciao” translates to “goodbye beautiful.”
As journalist Jack Posobiec pointed out Friday on Steve Bannon’s War Room, the song has become a worldwide left-wing antifa anthem, though it remains popular for other reasons too.
According to Cox, a fired casing had the message, “Notices bulges OwO, what’s this?” which is reportedly a reference to homosexuality associated with “furry” fetishes or attraction to cartoon animals.
