“These are the people conservatives on campus are up against.'

Opposition to conservative political commentator Michael Knowles on the University of Missouri-Kansas City campus required the intervention of law enforcement after a protester attempted to squirt Knowles with an unidentified white substance.

After the incident, Knowles posted on Twitter that the protester got him “a bit in the face and on the side” and said, at first, he thought the substance was paint because of how it smelled. Initially, he assumed it was bleach, but after speaking with the police officers, he posted on Twitter that it was an “unknown odorous liquid.

In light of the incident, the University of Missouri-Kansas City posted on Twitter that the school had a responsibility to allow free speech, while asserting it would not allow peaceful activities to be physically disrupted. Newsweek reached out to the University of Missouri-Kansas City but did not receive a response in time for publication.

Knowles need to continue this and not drop charges. These schmucks need to answer for their malicious acts.

Pathetic that people have to act like an animal to show they disagree with someone. University of Missouri is FAR from a higher learning educational institution & so are the sad people who hate so bad they can't handle an adult speech that differs from their own opinion! 🙄

Give the protester an award!

Bail that protester out of jail!!

Bleach...it's called hate bleach...
