Martin Shkreli Pelted With Poop At UC Davis As Yiannopoulos Event Gets Canceled Amid Protest
Friday night's planned appearance by Milo Yiannopoulos at UC Davis — with, just for the hell of it, despicable sidekick Martin Shkreli in tow — was canceled amid a loud and predictable protest, and campus Republicans say it was out of fear for the safety of Yiannopoulos fans who planned to attend. But for some reason Shkreli, who is apparently a glutton for anger directed towards himself, went out to work the crowd amid the protest, and in addition to getting shoved around a little, he got pelted in the face with feces.
The video from Twitter posted above purports to show the moment Shkreli was hit with shit, just as a protester is calling him "a piece of shit."
Conservative supporters of Yiannopoulos, and in particular one man wearing a red "Make America Great Again" cap, were heckled and jostled by protesters, and Frances Wang of Sacramento's ABC 10 reports that many of the protesters were not UC Davis students, but most of them were protesting peacefully. The university confirmed that one arrest was made during the protest.
An editorial in the school newspaper Friday morning read, "Make no mistake: Yiannopoulos is a hateful spectacle, not a conservative political theorist ... we support any members of the community who decide to exercise their freedom of assembly and peacefully protest the event."
