‘F**k your dead homie’: Hateful leftists clash with TPUSA supporters as Charlie Kirk’s planned tour ends in violence

Violence erupted outside a Turning Point USA event on the UC Berkeley campus as protesters gathered to challenge TPUSA’s presence at the school on the final stop of TPUSA’s tour after Charlie Kirk’s assassination in September.

KTVU reported that protesters clashed on Monday with attendees outside Zellerbach Hall, where the event was scheduled to take place. Comedian Rob Schneider and Christian apologist Frank Turek headlined the event.

Other signs read: ‘Kirk said death penalties should be public, quick, and televised … Congrats Bud!’ and ‘TP belongs in the toilet.’

KTVU’s Crystal Bailey described a “rowdy” crowd outside the venue, noting that there was heightened security as well.

The event sold out the 1,900-seat venue, a UC Berkeley TPUSA chapter representative told KTVU.

Bailey reported that the protests turned violent as protesters and attendees clashed, saying that there was “blood splattered on the ground” as the result of an “altercation.”

In a now-viral video posted Monday night, leftist protesters and students could be heard chanting, “F**k your dead homie,” referring to late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was publicly assassinated exactly two months ago Monday.

The crowd can be seen holding signs that read, “This machine fights fascism,” “No safe space for fascists,” “Karma’s a b***h,” and “The lion doesn’t concern himself with the opinions of trash.”

Other signs read: “Kirk said death penalties should be public, quick, and televised … Congrats Bud!” and “TP belongs in the toilet.”

A large red sign with two hammer and sickle symbols could be seen with the words “Drown Fascism in a Sea of Resistance.” Underneath the slogan was an apparent reference to a group called the Revolutionary Student Organization. With a portrait of Mao Zedong on the “about” page of its website, the RSU participates in several forms of “direct action.”

In other videos from the event shared by reporter Andy Ngo, activists can be seen shouting incoherently at California Highway Patrol officers and igniting smoke bombs.

TPUSA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet still claimed the event was a success. “Despite Antifa thugs blocking our campus tour stop with tear gas, fireworks, and glass bottles, we had a PACKED HOUSE in the heart of deep-blue UC Berkeley,” he said, according to the New York Post.

KTVU reported that at least four students were arrested in connection with vandalism associated with the event.
