Earlier in the day UC Davis Chancellor Gary S. May called Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk a “proponent of hate” and encouraged students to “neutralize and negate” TPUSA’s influence on campus.
The Sacramento Bee labeled Kirk a “fascist” and a “vocal transphobe and Donald Trump fanatic.”
“While I abhor the inflammatory speech of this speaker, UC policy permits the students to invite this speaker,” May said. “We will be monitoring the event closely to determine if a threat or incitement develops that meets that threshold, or violates other campus policies.”
