Turning Point USA (TPUSA) hosted an event at the University of Memphis that featured Kyle Rittenhouse. School administrators threw a wrench in TPUSA’s event, including changing the seating and admissions requirements on the day of the event. Instead of TPUSA’s getting 50 seats, they only received 8 seats. At the same time, the administrators provided information to the protesters about the extra seats so that many protesters could attend and then stage a walkout.<\/p>\n

TPUSA’s college chapter at the university invited Rittenhouse to speak about the Second Amendment and self-defense, but the event spiraled into chaos when some students disrupted parts of Rittenhouse’s Q&A and chased attendees leaving the campus, video captured at the event shows.<\/p>\n

According to TPUSA, the university took “unprecedented actions to undermine our event,” after previous ticket holders were alerted before the event that their seats were no longer reserved and that they would have to rebook.<\/p>\n

“Seizing control of seating arrangements and the ticketing system – on the day of the event – has never happened in our many years of campus organizing,” TPUSA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet said in a statement. “This abrupt change will result in hundreds of disappointed students whose tickets will no longer grant them entrance into the venue.”<\/p>\n

TPUSA said that “despite being promised control of 50 seats,” the organizers were restricted to only a single row of eight seats.<\/p>\n

Kolvet said the organization “gathered credible information” that school administrators leaked the new ticketing information to protesters in order to fill up seats to stage a walk-out.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
