Marla Rose, a Jewish feminist activist, has sparked debate following an alleged altercation with far-right commentator Nick Fuentes at his Illinois residence.
Over the weekend, Rose reportedly approached Fuentes’ home, rang the doorbell, and was allegedly met with pepper spray and a physical confrontation. She claims Fuentes pepper-sprayed her, kicked her down a flight of stairs, and took her phone, which was later returned by the police. Emergency services, including the police and an ambulance, arrived following the incident.
In a Facebook post, Rose elaborated on her motivations, citing Fuentes’ controversial reputation. “What would you do if a neo-Naz*, white supremacist who called on a holy war against J*ws and is a loud, proud misogynist lives in your town?” she wrote. Encouraged by a friend, Rose explained, “So I rang the doorbell, he immediately swung the door open like he was at damn Waco, sprayed me with a burning liquid…and pushed me down the stairs onto his sidewalk.”
Rose noted that a passerby called the police, after which EMTs checked her for injuries. “The nice EMTs took my vitals in the ambulance,” she added, sharing, “I am a little sore on my right side, where I fell, but I’m fine.” She also described the police response as dismissive, allegedly asking, “‘For what?’ I said, dumbfounded, ‘For ASSAULT.’ And he was like, ‘Well, you went to his door.’”
Public reactions have been polarized. While some supporters see Rose’s actions as justified given Fuentes’ past incitements on social media, critics argue that her approach and alleged doxxing crossed legal and ethical boundaries. Some have called for legal repercussions against Rose.
Fuentes has not commented on the incident. In closing, Rose added a jab at Fuentes, writing, “PS – Fuentes is a VEWY fwightened widdew man. Don’t ring the doorbell. He’s a little on edge. Go figure!”
