Video: Antifa Militants Go After Elderly Woman With a Cane Outside Riley Gaines Event — Police Response Is a Total Joke

Seattle, WA – On May 6, 2025, Antifa militants terrorized an elderly woman with a cane as she left a Turning Point USA event featuring Riley Gaines at the University of Washington, taunting her and urging her to “kill herself,” according to a video shared by @BrandiKruse on X, viewed over 1.5 million times []. The shocking scene, coupled with other violent acts like a trans Antifa member hurling a bag of feces at a volunteer, per @KatieDaviscourt [], has conservatives slamming the Seattle Police’s inaction: “Antifa attacks the elderly, and the cops just stand there—pathetic!”

The video captures the elderly woman, struggling with her cane, being followed by masked Antifa members clad in black bloc attire, shouting vile threats as she made her way to her car.

In a separate incident, Antifa stalked an elderly couple, with police declining to intervene or make arrests, per @KatieDaviscourt [].

Another volunteer was assaulted with feces outside the venue, where Antifa had stationed themselves to intimidate attendees, per mynorthwest.com [].

The image of police escorting the woman while doing little to stop the harassment—set against a backdrop of trees and a quiet street—has sparked outrage.

@PatriotPulse wrote, “Police let Antifa terrorize an elderly woman with a cane—where’s the justice? Trump would’ve cracked down hard!” Conservatives point to Trump’s law-and-order stance, with 88,763 deportations since January, per DHS [], and a 99% drop in illegal crossings, per CBP [], as proof of what strong leadership looks like. @America1stMAGA added, “This is Biden’s legacy—Antifa running wild while police do nothing!” Seattle’s history of leniency toward Antifa, like the 2020 CHOP zone where police also stood down, per en.wikipedia.org [], fuels conservative frustration.

With 72% of Americans supporting tougher protest policing in a 2024 Gallup poll, per Gallup [], conservatives like @JusticeForAll22 are calling for federal intervention: “Antifa’s gone too far—Trump needs to send in the National Guard!” The footage, showing the stark contrast between the vulnerable woman and the indifferent police response, has become a rallying cry for conservatives, who see it as a failure of local leadership and a testament to the need for Trump’s strong hand to restore order.
