The Post Millenial reports that a talk earlier this week by transgender ideology critic Jenn Smith at the University of British Columbia erupted into violence after an Antifa member allegedly assaulted somebody in the audience. Smith is an anti-SOGI (sexual orientation and gender identity) activist who opposes teaching kids about sexual orientation and gender identity at schools.
The event which was on “how transgender politics in school and society is undermining our freedom and harming women and children” faced several attempts by opponents to have it shut down and the speaker deplatformed.
Despite outrage from groups like the Association of Administrative Professional Staff at UBC (AAPS), who accused the transgender speaker of promoting hate, the university stood by their decision to allow the event continue, citing the fundamental freedom of speech.
Smith says, “I think the original intent was to go after me but she got spooked by RCMP near me and instead charged out of the building and flailed at the man at the back.”
Here’s video of the Antifa member making her getaway, being detained, and screaming like an animal.

Quillette’s Andy Ngo has done exceptional work covering Antifa:
Last night protesters tried to shut down an event at @UBC feat. a trans speaker critical of trans ideology. Students & some faculty had demanded event be cancelled. One masked woman was detained & began screaming & crying on camera. #antifa pic.twitter.com/NqimiY6n2t

Did they not have permission to speak? Why did students & faculty demand the event be cancelled. And why was she wearing a mask in the first place?

At 13 secs in, she hits the man in the back row pretty hard on his head.

Why the heck did she hit that man in the face? He didn't do anything to her. It's bizarre.

If this is what the revolution looks like, I'm not worried.

Looks about right. Lawlessness. No accountability. No consequences.

Why is he/she screaming and crying? I don’t get it
— ShaunAMag (@shauny_mag) June 24, 2019
Her crying is a ploy to try and persuade authorities that she's innocent or claim they are"hurting" her. Don't think for a second she didn't have a plan if she was caught. We shouldn't call these pressure spilled or child like. I think it's more sinister than that.

Fascists can be actors, too, apparently.

Omg what a baby. Either run faster or be prepared to deal with the consequences of your actions.

I'm actually beginning to think #activism is becoming an addictive drug. One second that lady is frolicking up the stairs and the next she's a screaming incoherent mess. #comingdown

The screaming and crying are what spoiled children do when they're caught and held accountable.

Not mentally ill at all.

Mental illness is written all over this one. Cults have a tendency to attract those who have fallen between the cracks as it provides them with a community. Her cult is Intersectionalism.

Mental illness is real
— chicagocemo (@chicagocemo) June 24, 2019
This is what happens when activists whip up hysteria in their followers; all sense of balance and rational behaviour goes out of the window. What a sad ridiculous carry on.
— Frances Lumsden (@FrancesLumsden) June 25, 2019
These people are mentally ill and should be treated with psychotropic drugs and possible commitment for their own safety. How sad to see the screaming. Normal people who can handle life do not act this way. Please, someone get a psyche eval for her.
— Pamela Sund (@SundPamela) June 25, 2019
I think we need to start talking seriously about the mental health of some of these people. We appear to letting our society be dictated to by many individuals who are borderline/fully disturbed.
— tim d (@bootsyjam) June 25, 2019
YES!! Trigger warning culture, and avoidance of any discomfort, has left these kids with zero resilience.
None of the people I've watched get arrested for civil disobedience in the past ever sobbed like that upon arrest. (And that was with pepper spray and a clubbing!)
— Spryfield Homegrown (@Spryfield420) June 25, 2019
It's like she's been brainwashed and broken down and regressed into a maniac. That is how a child acts. A child makes a scene, does something wrong, and when they are caught they bawl in the hopes of getting out of trouble.

She needs to be institutionalized.

Lmao this clown world we are living in . These people like woman are CRIMINALS who try & silence free speech . These universities are letting students silence a group just cuz they don't like what they are saying . Pulling a fire alarm is criminal & dangerous #antifascum

The left is bizarre. Imagine this being accepted/celebrated in your social and political circles.

Intelligent discussion vs childish temper tantrums.
How do we want to learn as a society?
I feel sorry for these fragile mentally disturbed people,but they can't be indulged.I'm upset can't be the Ace card to play.— IronHeaver (@IronHeaver) June 25, 2019
So delicate.

Her tears would be funny if she wasn’t so sad and pathetic.

I am so tired of these infants and their temper tantrums.

This is the generation when we stopped spanking and started asking to talk about their how feelings were important.

Now we’re just interested in what Jenn Smith had to say. Tessa Vikander is a reporter for The Star Vancouver and lists #LGBTQ and “Identity and Inequality” as her specialties in her Twitter bio:

Here's my story from before the event. https://t.co/PpfvrvnIa4
— Tessa Vikander❄️ (@TessaVikander) June 24, 2019
Jenn Smith: "I don't approve of SOGI 123..I think it's more important to teach basic manners and respect..nothing against transgender people." At one of Smith's recent talks, members of Soliders of Odin (classified as a hate group by a watchdog network) acted his bodyguards.
— Tessa Vikander❄️ (@TessaVikander) June 24, 2019
Lecture has resumed. Smith is talking says "woman" is a word that is being highly debated. "My position is that a man cannot be a woman," essentially saying that trans women are not women. #LGBTQ #trans

Can you believe there are people in America who oppose free college when this is what they’d be missing?
