A star California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo wrestling recruit had his scholarship rescinded after being caught on video yelling an anti-gay slur at a rally in Modesto, California.

Bronson Harmon, 18, was with his father at a Families Belong Together march on June 30, which was protesting the Trump administration policy of separating families at the border. As a counter-demonstrator, Harmon, holding a "Donald Trump 2016" sign, was filmed yelling "F— you, f—t" at a camera videotaping him.

The video, which is NSFW, was recorded and posted on Facebook by Abdul Lasaing of the Modesto area. On the post, Lasaing wrote, "I and a group of people were already walking back to our vehicles after the #KeepingTheFamilesTogether march; when I heard a group of men shouting and trying to scare us ... I was so in chocked [sic]."

Lasaing went on to say, "I was flipped off and called a [f—t] ... for either my dark skin color or my #WorldPeaceSign?? Not sure."

On Tuesday, Harmon, a former star wrestler at Oakdale High, told the San Luis Obispo Tribune, "Saying what I said is definitely not the right thing. I am supposed to be there to help the community, be the best person I can be and represent the college the best way I can. But I still feel like my freedom of speech was taken away and I don't think my scholarship should have been revoked over something like that."

While Cal Poly declined to say why Harmon's scholarship was rescinded, it did say that it had viewed the video from the march before a decision had been made, according to the Tribune.

The university, located in San Luis Obispo, made headlines in recent months after a fraternity member was photographed posing in blackface.
