Far-left students scream '**** pro-lifers' after hijacking anti-abortion event at Virginia university, as protesters throw 'punches', injuring chapter president

Liberal students hijacked a pro-life event at a Virginia university as protesters screamed '**** pro-lifers' and violently threw 'punches,' injuring one.

Kristen Hawkins was speaking at the Virginia Commonwealth University for her Lies Pro-Choicers Believe tour when liberal students and reported members of Antifa - a far-left group - hijacked the event and began hurling insults at her and her co-speaker, Isabel Brown.

'We came to @VCU, a public university to speak about abortion and we were assaulted,' Hawkins wrote on Twitter. 'VCU you should be ashamed of yourselves for allowing this and shutting down any freedom of thought or speech at your university.'

Videos from the event on Wednesday show protesters screaming '**** pro-lifers' and 'get out Nazi fascists' and 'Nazis go home' while the two women stand at podiums ready to speak.

In a video posted by Students for Life, the organization that held the event at the school, shows Hawkins approaching school security in the hallway as they stood by while protesters continued to scream.

Eventually, students were seen crowding in one spot as someone screams: 'They're assaulting her! They're assaulting her!'

Brown claimed punches were thrown and the Students for Life Chapter President, Autumn Higashi, was injured. DailyMail.com has reached out to Higashi for comment.

Two of the women's private security as well as local police came rushing in, throwing protesters across the room before someone screamed: 'Hey! Listen up! Calm down! Everybody get the f**k out of here!'

Students replied back: 'You leave first!'

In response, school staff removed Hawkins, Brown, and other pro-lifers from the room as the students continued to yell.

This is a case in which one FRiend's tagline, which I will paraphrase below, rings so very poignantly:

"Peaceful coexistence with the left is not possible; stop believing that it is."

In their minds calling you “nazi” justifies them attacking and even killing you. Just like calling an innocent baby just “a clump of cells” justifies abortion.

See? Violence IS acceptable to enforce your political viewpoint. The Left told us so.

Sturmabteilung reconstituted. And THEY think they’re antiNazi.

Would be pathetic if it weren’t so dangerous.

“progressives”, Leftist, whatever, have always demonstrated a penchant for totalitarianism, but of late it has been accompanied with overt violence. The times remind me of Germany in the 1930s and I wonder what it augurs relative to the revolution.

So they ushered the people trying to hold the event and let the violent protesters win again?

There used to have people like “Base Stickman”, Tiny Toese and their group to protect their protesters from Antifa thugs. The Feds prosecuted those guys out of existence so Antifa can operate freely.

Libs have a death wish and are too stupid to know it.

NOT “liberal”, as the author writes and so many people incorrectly use. Fascist in the true sense of the word. Brown shirts, etc. but definitely not “liberal”.
