More violent imagery depicting an ICE agent being shot was photographed on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus late last week.
The hand-drawn image, which was photographed hanging on a post, said, “The only good fascist is a dead one.” The drawing depicts a man wearing sunglasses with a mask over his face and a hat on his head. The man’s shirt says “ICE,” and red blood streams out of his head.
The photograph was first shared with The Madison Federalist, an independent school newspaper.
Fox News Digital spoke with the student who photographed the image, who asked not to be named but is a board member of the school’s Turning Point USA chapter.
WISCONSIN PROFESSOR SLAMS ‘ISOLATING ENVIRONMENT’ FOR CONSERVATIVES ON CAMPUSES
“It was in this area called Memorial Library, and my first reaction was, well, I’m in a university, so I wasn’t too surprised,” the student said. “I kind of felt disgusted, and I felt that it was a very harmful message to be sending to college kids, especially in a very, I guess, politically biased or politically charged university.”
The student said he took a photo of the image before he ripped it off the post.
“I just felt really disgusted, and I felt almost threatened because it kind of shows how, you know, violence against people who are considered right-wingers are kind of normalized in this campus,” the student said.

The student told Fox News Digital that the political bias extends to the classroom.
“I feel like a lot of the professors—not all of the professors, but a lot of the professors—they paint right-wingers or conservative Christians or nationalists in a very, very bad light,” he said. “And because of that, these types of rhetorics have almost become normalized even in my university classes.”
He said he has experienced professors “justifying what Stalin and Mao did,” and that violent rhetoric has become more normalized after Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s September assassination.

“People celebrating [Kirk] dying wasn’t, like, an anomaly in this campus,” the student said. “So, I just think it’s an amalgamation of years and years of, I guess, normalization of this type of violence against the right.“
A similar image was discovered and photographed on campus earlier last week.
The image, which was spotted by a student and subsequently posted on X by the Wisconsin College Republicans, shows a figure wearing a vest that says “ICE” being shot in the head. Blood pours out behind the agent’s head, creating a thought bubble.

“Speak their language,” the wording on the image says.
Below that, it says, “You can’t vote away fascism.”
Nick Jacobs, the chairman of the Wisconsin College Republicans and a student at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, also described an uptick in violent rhetoric since Kirk’s murder at Utah Valley University.

“I mean, it’s really bad,” he told Fox News Digital after the first graphic image was photographed last week. “It’s almost celebrated among students to write threatening things about college Republicans, about ICE agents, about Republicans.”
“At my school recently, we did a chalk memorial for Charlie Kirk, and leftists wrote what was on the bullet casing an hour after we did it,” he said.
Bullet casings recovered from alleged Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson were riddled with left-wing messaging, including the title of a popular Antifa song.
