Gibson wasn't arrested, officials say. He's considered a "rescue." No further details. #berkeley https://t.co/eVtz5hyjJv — Lizzie Johnson (@lizziejohnsonnn) August 27, 2017
Via the SF Chronicle:
3:03 p.m. Joey Gibson “rescued”: Police officials said the detaining of Patriot Prayer leader Joey Gibson was actually a “rescue.” Gibson was placed in handcuffs after being chased, hit and pepper-sprayed by a mob of black-clad demonstrators. He was not arrested or charged.

Yup it’s the SF Bay Area, my home. Wear a MAGA hate, put your life at risk.
And the reason the cops didn’t arrest the rioting mob that was assaulting him?
Our side needs to quit sending in Ann Coulter, Milo, and Ben Shapiro into these places and start sending in heavily armed men with domestic authority to either arrest or eliminate Antifa. In fact our side to needs to quit going to Berkeley, Portland, Seattle, etc all together. Why give them tax money? The time for talking and dumb-ass debates like “Is Antifa communist or fascist?” are over. Let them think “Oh, we won they quit coming to our town, it’s nice and quiet”. “Yeah, a little too quiet, ya think.”
Wow! Soon, all Trump supporters will be “rescued”, eh?
I’ve had my Trump car signs defaced and torn down. As a final coup-de-grace, a church mate of mine “pulled me into the principal’s office” (my pastor’s office), and cried racism against me. In the end, the Bay Area will find a way to get you to shut and sit down.
Right..... they ‘rescued’ him. Since when does conducting a rescue give time for handcuffing the vic?
So Gibson gets assaulted and then gets arrested.
Am I reading this correctly?
Oh, it’s Berkeley, never mind.

Somebody’s going to go ‘Inglorious Basterds’ on these ANTIFA Nazis at some point. Enough is enough...
You Nazis must remember that everything the PoPo do is for your own good. Besides, it wasn’t an arrest. The Nazi organizer was only detained. Of course, no one can detain the perps because they were only fighting your Nazism./s
