On her website Liberty Hangout, Bennett posts videos of herself grilling students on issues like gendered bathroom policies on campus, seemingly to expose how colleges alienate conservative students. She also contributes similar content to the far-right conspiracy-drive website Infowars. Bennett was ostensibly visiting Ohio State to ask students “trivia questions” on camera about Presidents’ Day.
Hundreds of OU students followed Bennett around, making it extremely difficult for her to film her videos. One person placidly played a drum to drown her out as she tried to ask him questions. Groups threw toilet paper. Others apparently pushed into the crowd to give her an ironic hug. They cheered when she left after only two hours.
Bennett called it a “riot” on Twitter and tagged Donald Trump, saying that he should “strip funding from universities like this that harbor terrorists.” Ohio State campus police, however, disputed her description. “There was strong language, and allegations that that some unknown person in the crowd splashed water,” police said in a statement, “but there were no reported injuries or violence, and no one was arrested during the incident.
