The conservative activist said he had witnesses who would verify that he did nothing to instigate the attack, and that he began filming within seconds of being approached by the attacker. The video shows the man who attacked Williams shouting: 'Mother f**ker. You racist little inbred b***h. C**t!'
At one point, he also threatened to 'shoot' Williams.
Williams said that as the attack unfolded, a number of people simply stood by and watched.
'Some students nearby tabling were laughing, even one guy was smiling while I was being attacked and trying to hand me his flyer as a joke,' he told Campus Reform.
'The idea is free speech has consequences.... which include you getting assaulted if they find you promoting ideas others don't agree with.'
Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point, a campus group devoted to limited government and free markets, said that the incident highlighted a double standard.
'Imagine if the attacker was wearing MAGA hat, would be national news! This is the violent left!' Kirk wrote on Twitter.
