Riley Gaines, a former NCAA swimmer, has made been making headlines for using her voice to push back on men competing in women’s sports. On Thursday evening, that led to a group of militant transgender activists violently assaulting her and holding her hostage.

Gaines, a 12-time All-American, entered the spotlight over the last year after being one of the few in her sport with the courage to publicly object to Lia Thomas’ domination of women’s swimming. Thomas is a biological man.

While he was at the University of Pennsylvania, Thomas’ teammates suffered oppression and humiliation, being made to share a locker room with a man who would reportedly walk around flaunting his genitals. Instead of listening to the concerns of the actual women on the swimming team, the university forced them into sensitivity training and threatened them. UPenn then nominated Thomas for NCAA “Woman of the Year.”

Gaines was appearing at SFSU to give a speech as part of her tour promoting safe spaces for women in sports. Unfortunately, things reportedly got violent.

I truly hope that an number of people are arrested and charged with assault today for this. There needs to be a line in the sand that says any assault for political reasons will not be tolerated. Zero tolerance.

Clay and Buck played the audio, holy smokes, these people are mentally ill. “Back in the day” these people would have been committed to a mental institution for life.

Agree 100%, and how about adding kidnapping to the charges.

kidnapping definition: the action of abducting someone and holding them captive:

Except it IS tolerated, and it will continue to be tolerated as it serves the interests of both major parties and all Federal bureaucracies.

Is it any wonder that mentally ill, coddled trannies are shooting up schools and killing children? Not to me.

in a way Joyless Behar was right, the commie left for the longest time took over public institutions, taught kids from an early age to be commie marxists, believe that boys can be girls and vise versa..they have destroyed the nuclear family, and this is the consequences of that..for the longest time women wanted to be treated as equal, thus the women’s lib movement..now women have been wiped out, men with dicks wearing dresses say “Hey Im a woman” and they are welcomed in with open arms..I cry for my country

This violence is not just tolerated and excused by the Elites, it is encouraged and sponsored.

Calling Bud Lite. Paging Bud Lite.

Bud Lite, anyone? Nah, none for me, thanks.

The last two days I’ve seen a post from Gavin Newsom and heard Karim-Abdul Pierre speak the WH is behind the insurrections.

At this point it appears anyone NOT bowing to the madness is the enemy of some state governments and the WH.

Maybe I’m over stating but I’d be in a defensive mode tonight and resurrection day.

We know they are suicide prone. They seem to be begging to be killed.

When you have to say the above in a civilized society, you've lost the battle. Assault in a first world country isn't tolerated for any reason.

In the sh*thole country Biden, his goons, his bullies, his FBI and sickening DOJ have created, thugs and criminals are out of jail before their victims are out of the hospital.
