Arreguin is looking ahead to the end of next month when Berkeley holds “Free Speech Week” and he sees utter disaster on the horizon. Having unleashed these demons back in February, he now hopes to reign them in before they burn down his city and maim a bunch of Trump supporters. Good luck with that, you fool. Anybody gets hurt, it’s all on you.

Sorry for my harsh tone, and I’m not being sarcastic. I see so many just slamming Sessions as though he’s not doing his job. I read here on FR someone recounting a murder investigation - one criminal, one crime, the victim ID’ed the muderer before he succumbed, cops found murderer washing his clothes trying to hide evidence, etc.

It still took nine months before the trial.

[little jeremiah]

Do you read Thomas Wictor?

[Bonemaker]

Cool.

I’m old school curmudgeon. Don’t suffer fools gladly. Antifa should be taken out yesterday. Get going Jeff I’m on your side.

[easternsky]

No do not read much except Free Republic and links from here and the Bible. Should I check him out?

[Impy]

Berkeley has a police department?

LOL

[piasa]

Then this would be a good time to agitate Antifa by putting up statues offensive to them...

[catnipman]

“Then this would be a good time to agitate Antifa by putting up statues offensive to them...”

like maybe some Trump statues?

[fieldmarshaldj]

How else to enforce their parking laws and harass any Republicans that might venture into their fine city.

“street gangs don’t have one “crime boss” either but different leaders in each city.”

Then bust each one.

“Berkeley has a police department?”

And here they are: https://youtu.be/dz4HEEiJuGo

I love that movie.

That’s peak Sandra Bullock.

[GOPsterinMA]

Yes and yes.

And it turned out to be very prophetic.

[Impy]

We better start hoarding toilet paper like Kirsten Dunst.

I still don’t get the “3 sea shells” thing either.

They never did explain the TP hoarding on “Fargo”. They like to use misdirection on that show:

[Impy]

The shells thing was just a nonsensical joke I’m sure. But now it’s like the briefcase in “Pulp Fiction”, forever wondered about.

[Jim Noble]

It's not a "crime gang".

It's a seditious conspiracy to overthrow the government of the United States. I don't say so. THEY say so.

Even advocating such things is a crime.

For heaven's sake. If the Hutaree Militia can be put away for this, Antifa should be a slam dunk.

[Jim Noble]

They are in open violation of 18 USC §2384-2385.

You make a good point that, if the alt-right guys (for example) had this level of organization and had committed hundreds of violent acts of this nature, they would all be in a prison in the mountains of Colorado by now.

The fact that Antifa operates openly, and with the tacit or explicit support of Terry McAuliffe (and even Paul f***ing Ryan, for heaven’s sake) means that they are attached to the Deep State.

I hadn’t seen it that way until I read your excellent post, but, in retrospect, it’s obvious.

Why the sudden change of heart? He was perfectly o.k. with them beating the hell out of peaceful Trump supporters, people who went to hear Ann Coulter and others speak at the University of California, Berkley, them beating the hell out of peaceful people praying, pepper spraying women while his police force stood by cheering them on. Somewhere along the line, his ox must have gotten gored. The entire Berkley Police Department should have been decertified and disbanded, along with the other Police Departments that stood by and did nothing as law abiding citizens were assaulted and beaten with weapons and fists. In spite of what the police apologist said defending them each Officer on these Police Forces swore an oath to Defend and Protect the Constitution and enforce the laws of their respective States. This oath they violated.

[GOPsterinMA]

Great analogy - YES!!!!!!
