Students at Georgetown University are feeling threatened after flyers saying ‘Hey fascist! Catch!’ surfaced around campus, following the murder of Charlie Kirk.

The John Brown Gun Club, identified as a ‘far-left’ organization named after the militant abolitionist John Brown, placed numerous bright red flyers throughout the private Washington, D.C. campus on Wednesday, as per reports from Fox News.

One of the posters read: ‘We protect us. Do something more than symbolic resistance.’ 

The second flyer caused significant alarm, displaying the phrase ‘Hey fascist! Catch!’ accompanied by the claim, ‘The only political group that celebrates when Nazis die.’

This phrase seemed to reference the 31-year-old conservative activist who was shot fatally in the neck at a rally at Utah Valley University on September 10.

Authorities reported finding bullets in the .30-06 caliber hunting rifle tied to the murder, engraved with transgender and anti-fascist slogans, including the exact wording seen on the flyers at Georgetown.

Another poster, securely taped on all sides, depicted a black-and-white image of Kirk with his eyes obscured and an explosion sketched over his neck.

The chilling phrase ‘Follow your leader’ was written above the photo, while a brutal caption – ‘Rest in piss, Charlie’ – was etched below.

‘My first emotion was fear,’ senior Jordan Van Slingerland told Fox. 

‘What happened to Charlie Kirk hit myself, and, of course, many of my friends on this campus very hard,’ he added. 

‘Seeing the text that was on the bullet of the assassin that had taken his life, certainly, was a bit scary.’ 

Although the flyers were removed within 30 minutes, that brief window was enough for photos and videos to flood social media, quickly amassing thousands of views. 

Georgetown quickly issued a statement, reaffirming its zero-tolerance policy toward any calls for violence or threats against the campus community. 

‘The flyers have been removed, and the university is investigating this incident and working to ensure the safety of our community,’ the university said, according to Fox.

However, some of the college’s more than 20,000 students argue that Georgetown – particularly as a private institution – must do more to confront the latest ‘dark celebration’ surrounding Kirk’s murder. 

‘I would love to see the university distinguish itself from other elite universities in the United States, which have all completely succumbed to leftism and have rotted from the inside out,’ senior Rowan O’Sullivan told the outlet.

While O’Sullivan defended the right to free speech, he argued that ‘if the school had any spine, they would absolutely condemn it and come down hard – not just send us an email.’ 

Nevertheless, the senior said it wasn’t surprising – but it’s ‘certainly out of control.’ 

‘I think it’s pretty obvious that whatever version of leftism, whatever you want to call this is, I think is, to some degree, window dressing for bloodlust at the end of it, and you saw that with the reactions to Charlie Kirk’s death,’ O’Sullivan added.

Sophomore Cash Moore, member of the College Democrats club, voiced his disappointment upon seeing the flyers, noting that some of his own classmates seem to accept the violence. 

‘The first thing I thought was a little disappointment that some people, perhaps on this campus, hold that violence is something that is productive in society,’ Moore told the outlet.

But another concern centers on how Georgetown University will now be perceived – and whether the Trump administration might retaliate by targeting the school, potentially through funding cuts or other measures.

In response, White House spokesperson Liz Huston condemned Wednesday’s act as nothing short of ‘despicable,’ telling Fox News Digital.

‘This despicable act at Georgetown underscores just how mainstream political violence has become on the left and why Charlie Kirk’s work on college campuses was so important,’ Huston told the outlet.

‘Through debate, Charlie taught students how to think critically and engage across differences,’ she added.

‘Americans should continue to live by the same principles as Charlie – speaking the truth, fostering real dialogue, and loving your country.’

Moore admitted that while he ‘hates his opponents,’ it’s still ‘valid for the left to be afraid.’ 

The sophomore said he has witnessed the left actively working to address the violence, adding, ‘A lot of the escalation is coming from the right – not just a few crazy people putting up posters on the left.’ 

‘We do have a free speech right on this campus, and I think that’s something a lot of us value and, obviously, a call to violence isn’t something that should take place, but there also is that free speech aspect that’s important to acknowledge,’ he told Fox.

Sophomore Max Wolff-Merovick believes the flyers were put up by ‘a small group of students’ aiming to spark fury, rather than to promote The John Brown Gun Club.

‘It’s unequivocally bad to be emulating the rhetoric of a political assassin,’ Wolff-Merovick told the outlet. ‘That’s not something that anyone should be doing.’

‘Certainly I feel for it, but I think, at the same time, we need to be grounded in reality and know that this does not represent the as a whole, much less the left in general,’ he added.

However, he argued that both sides ‘could do a better job at universally calling to turn the temperature down.’ 

The political division on Georgetown’s campus appeared to surface well before Kirk’s murder. 

Slingerland, who is the director of Campus Affairs for Georgetown’s College Republicans and a board member, said he has faced threats of political violence since Trump’s return to office. 

‘The climate has certainly been very hostile here for conservative students since then,’ he told the outlet.

He explained that left-wing groups have identified him on anonymous campus messaging platforms, where students ‘have been spreading lies and fabrications about him.’

‘This anonymous attacking from people, where you don’t know where it’s coming from, is very scary,’ senior Elizabeth Oliver said. ‘So many people are deterred from even sharing their beliefs in classrooms.’

Education Secretary Linda McMahon condemned the ‘appalling posters’ on Wednesday and urged the university to ‘determine what it stands for as an institution.’

While the debate over free speech continues across campus, student Jonathan Rothschild emphasized that, although it should remain a protected right, political violence ‘should not be glorified.’

‘If it is not a direct call to violence, I think the Georgetown University administration, to protect free speech, should leave it up, even though I personally find it abhorrent, he told the outlet.

‘I think everyone with common sense should be against political violence.’
