During a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) event at the University of Washington in Seattle on Tuesday, protesters reportedly flung “literal human feces” at students who were registering to attend a talk that opposed biological men participating in women’s sports.

The event, named “The Fight is Far From Over,” occurred Tuesday evening at the university’s Ethnic Cultural Theater. It was led by Riley Gaines and Olivia Krolczyk and was open to the public for anyone with a valid photo ID.

Gaines initially shared on X that protesters at UW were chanting “God is trans.” She later updated her post, stating, “the protesters just threw *feces* at the @TPUSA students at check in. Literal human feces.”

Local media outlets reported that approximately 150 people were near the building protesting the speech. Many could be seen in social media videos waving transgender flags and holding signs – some vulgar – expressing opposition to Gaines and Krolczyk.

 

Krolcyzk, an ambassador for the Riley Gaines Center at the Learning Institute and a self-described “free speech advocate and defender of women’s sports/spaces,” attempted to speak at the university in January, but was met with heavy opposition.

The event was ultimately shut down after she said protests turned “absolutely violent.”

“As soon as I arrived on campus, I was immediately met with confrontation. I had signs and flyers everywhere across campus telling me to leave, rallying people for the protest. It was insane – you couldn’t walk 10 feet without seeing them,” Krolczyk told OutKick’s Charly Arnolt at the time.

She continued: “However, it went from 0 to 100 in five minutes. It turned absolutely violent when Antifa showed up. We ended up having about 200 protesters.”

The protests on Tuesday come one day after 30 anti-Israel protesters were arrested and charged in connection with occupying an engineering building on campus for hours. 

The group was demanding that UW divest from aerospace and defense manufacturer Boeing, which has a long history with the university.

Fox News Digital reached out to the University of Washington for comment.
