Zachary Greenberg, the man caught on video punching conservative activist Hayden Williams last month at the University of California at Berkeley, made his first court appearance Wednesday.
The 28-year-old was arrested on Friday.
Williams, who is a field representative for The Leadership Institute, was recruiting for the conservative group Turning Point USA at UC-Berkeley before he was attacked.
Williams was standing next to a table with a sign that read, “Hate Crimes Hoaxes Hurt Real Victims,” talking about the case of actor Jussie Smollett, who is accused of staging a hate crime against himself in Chicago in January, KPIX reported. Williams said he was approached by two men who were angered over the signs.
He was punched in the face by one of the men during the confrontation that followed.

Thankfully, justice is being served as Greenberg is being charged with assault, battery, and criminal threats.
Greenberg is also being charged with misdemeanor vandalism for damaging Williams’ phone.

And it’s extremely likely that Greenberg will be convicted because of the video evidence against him.
Even if Greenberg doesn’t do time in the case, justice will be served because his name will likely forever be connected to the video of the assault.
It wasn’t clear what exactly Greenberg was doing that day, on the campus of a college he hasn’t attended in years.
UC-Berkeley spokeswoman Diana Harvey said Greenberg briefly attended the college in 2010, whenhe worked as a lab assistant in the psychology department, according to Campus Reform.
After Greenberg’s first court appearance, where he pleaded not guilty, defense attorney Alanna Coopersmith also stated that Greenberg isn’t a student a UC-Berkeley.

While Greenberg’s future is probably ruined by this foolish and stupid attack, Williams had the opportunity to meet with President Donald Trump and speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Saturday.

“It’s great that I’m being recognized,” Williams said, “but there’s so many conservative students across the country who are facing discrimination, harassment and worse if they dare to speak up on campus.
“I’m glad we could bring this to the forefront. And I’d just like to say, if these socialists/progressives had their way, they would put our Constitution through the paper shredder in a heartbeat.”
There are many more people like Williams’ attacker out there lurking college campuses, as Williams’ is just the latest incident of many that have occurred in recent years.
As Williams wrote in a commentary piece published by USA Today on Wednesday:
“Conservative students across the country have suffered verbal and physical assault, social ostracism and even academic persecution for voicing their opinions on political topics. This is because young liberals believe that they are on the morally righteous side in a culture war and, in order to win, they must silence any form of dissent. Leftists and the progressives aspire to nothing less than to make it de facto impossible to be conservative in public.”
It’s sweet justice that the accused attacker had to go to court just days after the person he assaulted got to meet the president of the United States.
The DNC is waiting for his resume
Wanna bet?
Good to hear it.
Wonder whatever happened to the lunatic hairdresser guy who kicked the cellphone out of the pro-lifer woman’s hand some months back?
From what I have heard, the guy has mental issues (anger management), and probably could never hold a decent job any way. One of the things about political instability is that it allows the mentally unstables to take the forefront. I am not excusing his violent behavior; just calling it as I see it.
What exactly was he doing on campus if he didn’t go to school there?
Is he a hired thug?
He knows his future job prospects are just fine, assuming he will even need to work. That’s why he feels free to do this stuff. The system might actually punish him, which would be a surprise.
It’s Berkeley........................
He works in digital analysis and processing, primarily for the fields of medicine and security, tell your friends to round-file his rez.
The biggie is the UCB Police Chief who lied he wasn’’t a student:
The twist is he was a CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT student, which simply means his classes weren’t a part of a DEGREE program.
Greenberg has been a part to TEN lawsuits:
All the restraining orders requested against him have been granted and ALL those he sought against others have been refused:
The man is a walking, bubbling cauldron of antipathy.
How many lawsuits have you been involved in?
I’ll bet ZERO and I’ll bet you’re older than he is.
Oh, I forgot:
Some years ago the authorities confiscated all Greenberg’s firearms, that was after some legal problem he had.
I worked with a guy who had big time but selective anger management problems that were well known.
He was a protected person since he the department spy, busybody, informer, gossip, and wind up tin soldier.
It wouldn’t be a decent job but he could go to work in Illinois for Robert “Creamy Bob” Creamer, a local political activist thug who engineered enough fear that Trump never campaigned in Chicago.
Never been sued, never sued anyone.
Never had a restraining order either...............

Assault is a resume enhancer.
Being involved in Left-wing violence did not hurt the careers of Bill Ayers, Angela Davis, or many other violent 60’s radicals.
“All the restraining orders requested against him have been granted and ALL those he sought against others have been refused”
All the restraining orders??
I suspect most people have never filed nor had even one restraining order filed against them. I know I haven’t To have multiples.....wow
This guy was tall, lanky, balding a bit, and white.
Once or twice I thought he was going to take a swing at me.
If he had, I would have taken a few blows and after witnesses appeared, marched on the office of PHB protector while having a family attorney on the phone.
Not optimistic that this won’t be plead down to a misdemeanor with a suspended sentence and community service. Also, if he is an ANTIFA type, his job prospects will be just fine, maybe enhanced.
