By way of threats and alleged assault, transgender activists on Wednesday reportedly forced a group of women�s rights
demonstrators to shutter their �Let Women Speak� rally in Tacoma, Washington.

Women�s rights campaigner Kellie-Jay Keen, who headed the event, told The Daily Wire the �Let Women Speak� speaking tour is
intended to allow women who�ve been silenced online for bucking radical transgender orthodoxy to make their voices heard �in the
actual public square� � though on Wednesday the women were shut down in-person, too.

�The USA is failing to uphold the First Amendment at the behest of this odious and most insidious quasi-religious cult called
transgenderism,� Keen blasted. �Women must be protected to speak about the eraser of our spaces, our rights, and the words we use
to define ourselves.�

Keen claimed the Tacoma Police Department (TPD) �failed to show up until the 23rd call for help,� adding that video of an assault
led to at least one arrest.

�April Morrow was assaulted when a man grabbed her hand and crushed it in order to steal her phone and smash it,� Keen said. �She
has suspected broken fingers and is seeking further medical attention today [Thursday]. The footage was given to police and he was
promptly arrested.�

�As women�s rights activists were dispersing the @StandingforXX rally in Tacoma, WA on Oct. 26, far-left pro-#trans protesters
surrounded & assaulted a middle-aged lesbian caught in the middle,� The Post Millennial�s editor-at-large Andy Ngo captioned video
from the event. �She had an arm injury that required treatment. The male assailants escaped on foot.�

The Daily Wire reached out to the TPD for comment, and heard back from the department�s public information officer Wendy Haddow
soon after publication.

�The Tacoma Police Department had officers on scene monitoring the event,� Haddow said via email. �Police responded to calls from
victims wanting to report a crime. This included a victim who reported an assault and damage to a cell phone. An arrest was made
of a 27-year-old male, and the suspect was booked into jail.�

Another video from the event shows a male sneaking up on a female speaker before being stopped by another quick-acting female
demonstrator.

A 'stunning and brave' maIe attempts to assauIt a woman. With cat like reflexes.

Numerous high school students came to try to shut down the women�s rights demonstrators, too, Keen told The Daily Wire.

�Nearby high school students screamed obscenities in the faces of women who gathered to speak,� she explained. �Along with other
protesters they circled around us and started to push us until we deemed it too unsafe to continue.�

�This was made worse by the fact that their principal would not ask them to go inside, he said it would make things worse for
himself,� the activist noted. �He also confirmed that boys use girls private spaces in that school and that it was state law.�

After the shuttered rally, Haddow said the department �received a report from a victim reporting they had been pepper sprayed
while at the event� and a report was taken. �The adult female suspect had already left the scene. No arrest has been made at this
time.�

�Today we were advised three students from a nearby school were pepper sprayed during the event,� the officer added. �An employee
from the school called 911 today. The investigation is ongoing.�

After an assault, threat to kiII and the police @TacomaPD refusing to attend, the only option was to end the event.

I repeat, @TacomaPD would not protect women.
