Was Charlie Kirk a Martyr — and Should He Be Canonized?
'Canonization is rare, and it is sacred. But should we not at least ask whether a man who lived and died fighting for biblical truth deserves that consideration? Charlie’s life pointed countless young people toward God, emboldened churches, and defended the unborn. His blood, shed while proclaiming truth, may inspire generations.
History remembers martyrs not because they were perfect, but because they were willing to die for what was right. Charlie Kirk did exactly that.'

Well, when you put it like that...
EDIT: AKSHUALLY, the tear ducts are what drain the tears away from the eyes. The tear glands are actually located nearer the outer edge of the eye. (But it's irrelevant, as the tears end up forming at the tear ducts - unless you're a lizard, in which case you typically don't possess tear glands and instead lubricate your eyes with your tongue).
That being said, if you were some sort of extra-terrestrial/lizard masquerading as a human and had studied human biology in an effort to enhance your disguise, you might wrongly assume that the correct way to wipe away tears would be to dab a tissue in the area of the eye closest to the tear gland - just saying...
