PITTSBURGH — A contingent of protestors dressed as clowns, complete with face make-up, attended a speech by Candace Owens on March 19 at the University of Pittsburgh and confronted her with pointed questions about her past controversies.
The clown protesters during the Q&A asked her about the fact that the gunman behind the Christchurch mosque massacre in New Zealand in 2019 had cited her commentary. They also asked her about 5-year-old allegations that she once claimed “Hilter was OK.”
In response to being asked about the Christchurch mosque shooting, Owens said she has no idea why that happened.
“People are crazy, and we shouldn’t give credence to homicidal maniacs when they’re putting together cartoons and people who fought against apartheid plus a random American in their thought process,” Owens responded.
Another clown protestor accused the conservative commentator of being antisemitic, while also mentioning how the city of Pittsburgh has a large Jewish population. She then questioned Owens regarding claims that she once said Hitler was OK.
Owens clarified that that was taken entirely out of context, that she was speaking about patriotic nationalism and had even denounced Hitler in the same talk.
