Fox News captured the wild scene in front of Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Saturday where protesters who were both cheering for and against WNBA star Sophie Cunningham clashed, with the cameras catching a loud “Trans Lives Matter! Trans Lives Matter!” chant breaking out in the face of an Outkick reporter.
“Boy, glad we’re not there,” The Big Weekend Show co-host Tomi Lahren quipped when the camera cut back to the studio.
She then explained “trans activists” and supporters of Cunningham “squared off” in front of the arena, shortly before Cunningham’s Indiana Fever played the New York Liberty. Lahren said the anti-Cunningham protesters were acting like “screaming banshees” and “causing problems,” but those who were there to support her were much more “civil.”
The show then played an interview with two young women who were there to cheer for Cunningham.
“She did this with tremendous risk to her personal safety [and] her career, and I’m just very grateful for her speaking up,” one of the young fans said, while the other applauded her for “not backing down.”
Saturday’s pro and anti-protests added to the frenzy surrounding Cunningham over the last month, after she told ESPN she does not believe girls and women should compete against biological boys and men who have transitioned.
Here is the comment which sparked the whole saga:
“I got a lot of negative feedback about me hating trans. And I’m like, ‘I never once said that,’” [Cunningham] says. “I think that I am here to extend love. But I also think with that love is truth, being honest. And I want to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn’t have to go against biological men.”
Cunningham’s remark has been both praised and condemned, with some fans rallying in support of her and making her Adidas sneakers a must-have item. Others have criticized her for it, including one opposing coach who took a not-so-subtle shot at Cunningham by wearing a shirt declaring “Trans Kids Belong.”
Things seemed to hit a new level — or low, more accurately — two weeks ago when Cunningham was clobbered with a clothesline smack to the head in a nationally broadcast game. The vicious hit did not appear to hurt her vocal chords too much, though, because Cunningham was seen the following week jumping on a bar top and belting out a Toby Keith country tune.
Watch above.
