The message reads … “Hey, Van, I mean it, I’d love to have you on my show to have a respectful conversation about crime and race. I would be a gentleman as I know you would be as well. We can disagree about the issues agreeably.”

Van says the late political activist sent the message Sept. 9 … the day before he was shot and killed in Utah. He says he didn’t see the message until after the shooting.
He explains he’s sharing the message now after all the narratives about civil war and censorship in the wake of Charlie’s death … and he says Charlie stood for none of those things.
