Controversial TPUSA provocateur Candace Owens was at the University of Pennsylvania for an event yesterday hosted by the UPenn College Republicans and the UPenn Statesman. Over the weekend, the Statesman reported that AntiFa had threatened to disrupt the event and was urging members to harass Owens.
Dear Antifa,
The year is not 1960 and I am not Ruby Bridges.
Your threats of violence do not scare me. I will be walking through the front door of UPENN today with my head held high.You racist white Democrats didn’t win back then—and you won’t win now. https://t.co/mST9EQaAq6

AntiFa’s threats may not have scared Owens … but that doesn’t make them any less scary:
Antifa is here!! Enjoy this video of the neo-KKK stalking and harassing me as I try to invite a group of peaceful black students into my event at UPENN.

Owens’ characterization of AntiFa as “the Democrat’s domestic terrorist arm” may be over the top, but it’s clear that there’s nothing anti-fascist about AntiFa thugs.
You don’t have to like Owens or agree with her or her tactics. But regardless of how you feel about her as a person, she doesn’t deserve to be harassed for being on campus and speaking her mind.
He’s not wrong. https://t.co/CCGS5ZAMad

This is frightening.
Where are all the usual voices screaming "racism" and "sexism"?
The white students hiding beneath masks screaming at @RealCandaceO is NUTSDoes a young conservative Black woman deserve less protection and less freedom because of her political views? https://t.co/HcFoQez5vd
