A University of Nevada-Reno student has been charged with property destruction and disturbing the peace after knocking over a Turning Point USA table on campus.
The TPUSA activists were promoting an upcoming speech on campus by the group’s founder Charlie Kirk when Kevin Edsel began cursing at them and flipped the table over.
Wow:
This intolerant leftist pretends he is curious about my upcoming visit to @unevadareno
He then violently throws over our @TPUSA chapter table and sprints away@RenoPolice needs to look into this destruction of property & targeting of conservatives

Campus Reform reports that Edsel was booked into the Washoe County Jail a few days after the incident. He has pleaded not guilty to both counts and is due back in court on November 21.
Kirk’s speech on campus has provoked the usual outrageous anti-free speech protests from the far-left. For several years now, college students have been using heckler’s vetos and causing, often violent, scenes in attempts to get any right-wing speech on campus cancelled.
