Martin Shkreli, the attention-loving pharmaceutical executive who was recently banned from Twitter for harassing a journalist, chose to address a protest at the University of California-Davis. The problem? The protest was about his appearance in the first place.

And one protester, armed with dog poop, may have ensured he won’t do that again anytime soon.
Shkreli was on the college campus to join an event with fellow internet noisemaker and self-proclaimed “supervillian” Milo Yiannopolous. The pair are on another leg of Yiannopolous’ “Dangerous Faggot” tour, in which he collects speaking fees as his supporters try to arrange events on college campuses, offend students and provoke protests.
Their event was cancelled by the UC-Davis’ College Republicans chapter in the interest of safety for attendees, protesters and speakers, including Yiannopolous and Shkreli. But Martin Shkreli insisted on attending anyway, addressing protesters.
Video from TMZ shows the aftermath of that decision, as someone can be heard calling him a “piece of s**t” just before a brown blurry mass lands on his face.
