Swimmer Riley Gaines 'ambushed,' 'physically hit'

The attack happened after Gaines spoke last night to students at a turning point USA event. She said she is not against transgender athletes competing but believes they have an unfair advantage in women's athletics, and there should be more dialogue about how to make athletics more inclusive.

No arrests. So "they" are above the law. Got it.

[MelanieKennedy]

You are a woman, a real woman Riley and you have the right to stand up for your rights as a woman.

[Jslayd]

Ambushed for 3 hours and no arrest was made, sounds like a setup.

[lmdavtube]

We are now lliving in a world in which it is becoming increasingly acceptable to harm women who speak out.

[jdmbeats]

As a man, just want to say, We are with you Riley!

[johhanwindsalor]

*So.... not a "HATE CRIME"?*

They should arrest every one of these idiots who attacked Riley Gaines and throw them in jail.

[ManekiNeko]

These trans bullies should be in jail. Plain and simple.

[ASDFCH]

Thank you Riley Gaines for your bravery. Standing up for women's rights. We're cheering you on.

[loner]

if they're attacking or trying to silence you rather then debating you, then obviously you are doing something right and just.

[AN-jwoe]

No arrests?!?! After physical assault?? What is wrong with the police?!?

[tomfullery]

If you had told me 10 years ago that 'Liberals' would be fighting to demolish women's rights, I would have thought you were crazy... but here we are.

[MelanieKennedy]

I stand with you Riley! Praying for you!

[masterraerae]

I stand with Riley. I hope she gets justice

[wr-cofn]

Three words for you, Riley, SUE, BABY, SUE….sue the people that hit you in the face, sue the university for not having proper security, sue the police dept. that had you sitting in a room for three hours and for not arresting the person that assaulted you.

[JustJenRx]

The people responsible should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Yet NO ONE was arrested?! Yeah this right here is why we women need to stand with each other. Men, we’re gonna need your help here too. STAND UP AND FIGHT.

[ComixMultiplication]

The fact no arrests were made goes to show you where we are right now

[andrewnmontemayor]

The press secretary supported the attackers actions and applauded them

[cellmate]

They didn’t make any WHAT???? That’s why this Crap keeps happening!!!!

[JackieO]

Riley on your side What they did was disgusting
