The I am Cait star visited Chicago, Illinois last Thursday, who gave a speech to a group of about 1000 people at the 7th Annual Speaker Series that provides social services to those who are impacted with AIDS/HIV and other LGBT issues.

But the 66-year-old former Olympian, according to Entertainment Tonight was stopped to address one protester who gave an insulting remark towards Cait saying, "You are an insult to trans people, you are an insult to women."

B96 Chicago radio personality Showbiz Shelly, who witnessed the confrontation tells ET, "The chaos outside was a great contrast to the uplifting atmosphere inside where Caitlyn had just given her speech." She also further stated that, "I thought she handled the situation with poise. By confronting the protesters in the way she did, she emphasized the themes she talked about in her speech. To be respectful, be brave and stand up for what you believe in."

Meanwhile, ET wrote that a production source confirms, I Am Cait cameras were rolling at the event for the show's second season. Caitlyn's cast mates, Candis Cayne, Jenny Boylan, Kate Bornstein, were also in attendance, and Caitlyn sat next to trans MMA fighter Fallon Fox, whom she met for the first time.

"The group was outside when we showed up with Caitlyn," the source says. "They weren't as aggressive when we got there like they were when we left. We've been rolling all day. We were rolling when we arrived, inside the luncheon while she spoke to the group and when we left to follow Caitlyn to her car."

 "We didn't know Caitlyn was going to talk back to the protesters," the source continues. None of it was staged."

Apparently, the protest does not stop there the group posted on their facebook page "I Ain't Cait" and stated their issues concerning Caitlyn's economic inequality. As they also continue on claiming that the transgender reality star is sometimes accused of not doing enough to support the transgender community given her financial status. On season one of the docuseries, the show often acknowledged Caitlyn's "1 percent" experience being starkly different from that of the transgender community at large.

"Who, you may ask, did they select to speak on the issues facing trans people and especially trans women in our city?" the group writes on their Facebook event page. "Caitlyn Jenner, who lives in a mansion and has a net worth of millions of dollars, while the average trans person has a 41 percent chance of experiencing homelessness and a nearly 50 percent chance of living off less than $10k per year."

"Caitlyn Jenner, who said in a segment on her hit new reality TV series I Am Cait, in regards to people who rely on social services to get by: 'You don't want people to get totally dependent on it. That's when they get into trouble. 'Why should I work? You know, I've got a few bucks, I've got my room paid for,'" the event page concludes.
