Conservative attacked on UC Berkeley campus for protesting Jussie Smollett's hate crime hoax
Washington Examiner ^ | 2/21/2019 | Troy Worden

Posted on 02/21/2019 2:40:16 PM PST by grayboots

A campus conservative was assaulted by a student at the University of California, Berkeley, on Tuesday for protesting hate crime hoaxes.

According to video taken of the incident, the student threatened to shoot the victim, who was tabling with Berkeley Turning Point USA, before knocking his phone out of his hand and punching him in the face. The incident occurred during the course of an argument over Berkeley Turning Point USA’s posters, which referenced growing reports that "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett engineered a fake hate crime attack against himself.

Throughout the day, six to seven students harassed the campus conservative and the Turning Point members he was tabling with. A political economy student at the university and an acquaintance of the victim, Jacob Nikolau, was tabling with the club for part of the day.

This student is a brave young man just to do that on UC Berkeley grounds. It’s a known fact in that this school does not always protect the rights of conservatives while on campus.

It should be perfectly legal to blow the brains out of these communist idiots when they physically attack anyone who has a different opinion than theirs.

I'm sure it will be the norm one day.

People need to understand that people in general, but leftists in particular, are batshit crazy, and they can kill you in the blink of an eye over absolutely nothing.

Be unseen.

Easily identifiable perp. Wonder if he’ll be charged, but not holding my breath.

We need a very large group of patriots to clean this cesspool of liberalism out. This guy should have had his face broken for that.

Whoa, what?

Be unseen?

Do exactly what they want? Cede the battlefield to the enemy?

What are we, French? Hell, even the Frogs are standing up to the Derp State man (#YellowVest)

Stop now, Chris. You're embarrassing.

I don’t care if you’re embarrassed.

Yea, that's obvious.

I'm not embarrassed. I said YOU'RE embarrassing. YOU.

Weakness is embarrassing.

"It’s a known fact in that this school does not always protect the rights of conservatives while on campus."

Thanks for posting lee martell.

I wouldn’t be surprised if many conservatives are not aware of their 14th Amendment protections.

”14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

In fact, UC Berkeley lost a 14th Amendment challenge not too long ago.

UC Berkeley settles landmark free speech lawsuit, will pay $70,000 to conservative group

However, taxpayers probably paid the compensation. Correction welcome.

It’s like I said, I do not care if you are embarrassed, and I can travel in any circles that I want, because I do not advertise at all.

You can call it weakness.

I will call it a strategy.

I would say that was about as crazy as disparaging Allah while on an A380 to Mecca.
