Last year, the Midwest Furry Furrie Fandom said no to the fur-right when they banned alt-right controversialist and all-round douchebag Milo Yiannopoulos from attending FurFest in Chicago. Now, in a trippy turn of events, a group of furries attending a convention in California rescued a woman from an alleged assault, pinning down the suspect in full furry attire until the police arrived. The alleged assault took place last week outside the FurCon convention in San Jose, California, where a number of furries intervened upon spotting the incident. One attendee, who was having a smoke outside when the victim’s car pulled up in front of them, caught the incident on camera. In the footage, taken outside the Marriott Hotel, the group stepping in can be seen wearing shades of furry pink, reportedly dressed as a dinosaur, tiger and cowboy, with FurCon lanyards. The furry heroes prise open the car door, where the assailant and victim were in the front seats, and pull the man from the vehicle. “We heard a woman’s screams coming from inside and saw the passenger throwing full fists at whoever was driving. We got up and ran towards the car, my friend pulled open the door and we both held onto the attacker,” Robbie Ryans, 26, told NBC. “Even though we’re wearing animal costumes, we’ve got some humanity as well,” fellow convention attendee who went by the name Khord Kitty added. “It’s just a natural thing to want to help someone in need.” Four or five furries followed suit by jumping on the suspect, Demetri Hardnett, 22, who was then arrested at the scene on suspicion domestic violence charges, as police reports show. The release from authorities mentions the act of bravery from bystanders (although their furry attire is not). Not all superheroes wear capes, clearly.
