Sheriff Joe Arpaio Event Disrupted by Antifa, ‘One of Whom Drew a Knife’ – Report

Left wing mob descends on Republican campus event

by

An Arizona State University conservative campus group called College Republicans United says its event with Sheriff Joe Arpaio was “disrupted” by “Antifa” supporters, one of whom the group alleged, “drew a knife” at one point.”

The university has since said there were no reports of anyone wielding a knife.

“On 1/29 CRU invited Sheriff Joe Arpaio to speak to our members, and the greater ASU community, about his long career in law enforcement and his election campaign,” a Facebook post from the group reads. “As usual our meeting was disrupted by ANTIFA, one of who[m] drew a knife on our supporters. Unlike in the past however ASU PD did intervene, [albeit] late…As far as we’re aware no arrests were made.”

Deanna Lorraine is running for Congress against Nancy Pelosi in a bid to regain control of the seat on behalf of the American people.

“In our opinion megaphones, blow horns, other devices designed to disrupt the educational process should be illegal on campus. Knives, which are already illegal, should have led to an automatic arrest,” the group added.

The post included a link to a video showing people chanting and banging drums. One sign read “Go home Joe,” another read “Fuck Arpaio,” and yet another read “Antifa against Arpaio.” The protesters chanted “No Trump, no KKK, no fascist ASU.” Sirens sound as the protest against Arpaio continue. Arpaio can be seen standing among the protesters just before the event.

Protesters were outside the room where Arpaio spoke but chants and sounds of drums beating still disrupted the event.

One conservative student in the video recalled to Arpaio being spat upon by one of the protesters at a prior event.
