It angers me to watch that video, they have a suspect. What a pig headed blankety-blank to pull this on someone. I hope they prosecute him on something big.

Here is the other thread from about last week some time.

Turning Point USA, and this guy, Benny is one of the tops in TPUSA (our side), he is a fairly good "conservative" account to follow, I don't know, I don't think he tweets much.

Just caught this Greenberg fellow.... they identified him pretty quick but it may have taken some time to bring him in.

Well Zach, now that we all know your name and what we can expect from you I doubt the next incident will come off in quite the same way.

[EdJames]

It is great that he has been arrested....  will he actually serve time out in that hellhole?

Since the UC Berkeley faculty member who showed up at Antifa rallies swinging a bike lock, connecting with skulls on several occasions, was slapped on the wrist I doubt it.

[EdJames]

Oh, thanks for the update on that....  I tried to follow that for a while, but lost track....  a wrist slap is likely in order for this thug as well then...  too bad.

As much as most of us would like it to be different, a simple battery is not much of crime. It happens in bars across.America nightly.

The victim is lucky it was filmed, and they caught the perp.

Maybe when they have their 2020 Convention, Kamela's warriors can have brawls with Beto's warriors, and Cory's warriors. Etc.

Film at 1968.

This is so. So, there seems to be misdemeanor assault and battery and then, maybe felony assault and battery?? I knew of a case and was surprised to see it was only treated as a misdemeanor but there should be more serious applications of the law and this looks pretty serious, it's kind of a mugging at that.

What's the point of posting this here? Were these people from Berkeley? It seems like some of them must have been.

This guy arrested, yes, probably a radical of sorts.

Heavy article, 5 things to know about Zachary Greenberg, he once worked for the university which isn't all that significant, that can be anything from working in a cafeteria, groundskeeper and so on. He was there long.  How hateful but... to be fair,  the looneys are on both sides. If it wasn't said, the charges do look like felonies, attacking with a weapon (I only saw fists thrown) and seeking to cause bodily harm. Sound like felonies which is proper, this is more a mugging.

Add On: Yes, Greenberg sucker punched a guy who looks to be a lot lighter and Greenberg actually looks pretty beefy. He sure was handy with his fists there.... one would have to be prepared for something like this......I wonder if he has experience somehow?

1968.  I wonder if such charges would even be brought in 2019?  (Seems to me that such charges could have been brought numerous times for Antifa and BLM rioting.  Yet they weren't.)

Tried in California, the guy will walk with a 'warning' or some such nonsense.
So many Judges/Prosecutors/Defenders there are either Antifa themselves or at least Antifa supporters. It goes all the way up from the Chief of Police to Mayor to the Governor. They won't allow any punishment. After all, from their point of view the guy was right.

Comments from self-identified leftists in the comments sections below the story in different media outlets reveals a lot of pro-thug mindsets.
 "he got what he deserved"  "what, a bunch of wimpy right-wingers can't defend themselves?" and so on.
In short, the libs/leftists were gloating. These are  the same people who celebrated when 9/11 happened or going back further when Nazi thugs beat up Jews before WWII.

The point is portrayal of political violence, in our history. My intent is merely to give perspective.

We were in the midst of Vietnam, where over 58000 would eventually give their lives in service to their nation.

No surprise. American Leftists are the most violent, hateful, intolerant people in the country.
They love violence and celebrate it. Except when it is directed at them. Only then, is violence unacceptable and 'racist'.

It's probably in their DNA.... since they are probably spawned by the same big labor leftie thugs that we used to see beating folks up and causing mayhem.

If they let this guy walk, after a blatant unprovoked attack on a person with whom he disagrees, then it will officially be 'open season' on Conservatives in California. The Left will know from this, that attacking Conservatives is not illegal in California.

This time it was a punch. Next time it will be a baseball bat. And the time after that it will be a gun. California is legitimizing lawlessness. Historically this has always turned on the people in authority. If they make attacking Conservatives defacto 'legal', then it is only a matter of time until the Leftist thugs start attacking anybody and everybody who says or does anything that they do not like.

And pity the fool who believes they can arm themselves for self defense. This is CA.
