At the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), flyers for a Young Americans for Freedom event featuring Paula Scanlan were defaced with explicit imagery showing Kirk\u2019s death and another image of Adolf Hitler, with taunting captions. Kai Peters, chair of UCSD\u2019s YAF chapter, said such vandalism has been a recurring problem and that these stickers were newly placed.

UCSD has a history of aggressive rhetoric targeting conservative students, including graffiti and tactics meant to disrupt events, and there are references to other vandalism such as graffiti about ICE agents and posters being overwritten or covered by other materials to sabotage attendance. The article also mentions that Charlie Kirk was assassinated during a speaking event on Sept. 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University, with reports that the killer engraved phrases on bullet casings found at the scene.
