'Oi, Bruce, get your d*** out': Caitlyn Jenner suffers vile transphobic abuse in LDN
 
Quote:

A photographer shouted at Caitlyn Jenner 'Oi Bruce, get your d*** out' as she left the British LGBT Awards in London.

Police have launched a hate crime investigation after the incident on Friday night.

Jenner was a guest at the ceremony, where she received a Loud And Proud trophy following her transition from Bruce Jenner in 2015, which she has spoken about publicly.

As she left the event at the Grand Connaught Rooms in central London an onlooker hurled transphobic abuse at her until she got into a car.

It is also claimed that someone threw something at her while the vile comments were being made.

A source told The Sun Online: 'Caitlyn had an amazing night and when she won her award the room went crazy.

'She'd had such a wonderful time but as she went to leave the whole atmosphere changed.

'Someone shouted to her, "Oi, Bruce, get your d*** out". Then someone else threw something at her. It was horrible.'

A Metropolitan Police spokesman confirmed that officers had been called to the address on Friday night.

He said: 'Police were called on Friday May 12 at 11.40pm to an awards event in Great Queen Street, WC2, following an allegation of a hate crime.

'Officers attended and spoke to one of the organisers who alleged that a photographer had verbally abused a woman and a man as they were leaving the event.

'No arrests have been made. Enquiries are ongoing.'

Jenner, who was previously married to Kris Jenner and whose six children include reality stars Kylie and Kendall Jenner, has been in the UK promoting her book The Secrets Of My Life.

The former Olympic gold medal-winning decathlete made a documentary, I Am Cait, about her transition in 2015 with appearances from her loved ones including Kim Kardashian, who spoke about her admiration for Jenner's bravery.

Jenner's representatives have been contacted for comment about the British LGBT Awards incident.

Well, it being a pap isn't so much of a shock. They're all scum.

this upsets me because Caitlyn seems like such a lovely person, she's struggled so much for years and is now at peace with herself. I hate that whole family but Caitlyn just seems like the only genuine one

She's a knobhead

Doesn't deserve the abuse though. Absolutely disgusting.

This.

Doesn't deserve this kind of abuse, but just like the rest of the family a completely shallow, attention seeking, idiot.

Saying "get your dick out", isn't a crime. But if we add the word hate to it, we can make it one.

I had never heard of Caitlyn Jenner until this last week.
Having watched her doing a few interviews she comes across as very interesting,
The word Kardashian is not unknown to me, but other than they all or nearly all start with the letter K and have a reality show, one has a super sized backside and has unusually named kids then that is about it.
Some absolute morons out there, hopefully she will rise above it.

I don't see it as a hate crime more like a heckler, people say and do nasty stuff, its part of life im afraid.

Read the article. There was worse said (not that shouting that at a woman whos transitioned isn't disgusting enough tbh) and the police deemed it a hate crime.

Its just nasty names, a hate crime is what hitler did to Jews and gypsies.

Someone throwing a punch or object is a different story.

Society make these laws as a deterrent, murder is a crime but it don't stop it happening.
