    Really? Not very good at Google, are you. I googled his name, plenty of reports, and it was very easy to find the 4Chan report identifying him and presenting all the evidence.

    You said the violence was an "individual" thing. It obviously was not what the independent reporters experienced.

    I am implying that it is at the discretion of the individual as to how they react in any given situation. How is committing an act of violence not an individual's choice?

    wow, really? If I were in your position, I would immediately go back to google and search again on "eric clanton san Francisco" or "eric clanton 4chan", but I'm conscientious.

    But let me extend a hand to lazy people in an effort to educate:

    "Progressive" is good, as opposed to regressive. "Liberal" is good as opposed to selfish. "Politically correct" is good, as opposed to politically blind to the good of the people - you know, good, protecting popular enfranchisement (as opposed to letting moneyed interests divert representatives' attention from honoring their vows to doing the bidding of the 1%, the financial backers. What's good is good, what's bad is bad.

    Of course not. I'm pretty sure that I have said who ever did this should end up in jail. No doubt about it. I don't condone violence of any type. I was merely responding to the specific post that since there is no perceived response from Democrats or liberals, that somehow, they condone this action. That is a falsehood.

    Except you're trying to tie a conservative hand behind their back when confronted with lefties who you don't have a thing to say about except a "tsk tsk".

    You do understand, I hope, that the ground rules have already been set by the aggressors. They aren't going to change their tactics, and you know this. So why do you expect the defenders to not adopt the same tactics?

    Perfectly understandable. However, that "tsk tsk" stuff has to be kept on the sidelines. You don't have to condone or condemn anything. Just stay on the sidelines and tsk tsk away to your hearts content. War is not an acceptable outcome ever, but when the right to free speech comes under attack, you can either join in the fight against, or stay silent.

    Some things are worth fighting for. Maybe not for you, but they are for some.

    Mob mentality. Although I will agree that joining the antifa mob is an individual choice.

    Antifa clearly, as a whole, behaved in a certain way collectively towards those reporters.

    10:1 dislikes to likes on youtube, :) they just keep losing and losing and losing... better get those dependent baby factories cranking overtime! Maybe they will come out with a "Democrat Vote Farm Drug" that reduces the human gestation period down to 3 months, then have Soros astroturfers demonstrate for it to be paid for by welfare. Bout the only hope they have.

    To the topic, I DO NOT want to EVER get on the bad side of 4chan.

    Its the lefty way. They believe they are making some abstract political point as they assault others.

    Its not hard to see how leftists murdered over 100 million people last century.

    It's such a crystal clear progression. The thing I can't figure is whether it's mass hysterical personality disorder or mass stupidity? The bizarreness of it tends towards hysteria, but the utter nadir of personal and historical awareness that it requires tends towards stupidity.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraordinary_Popular_Delusions_and_the_Madness_of_Crowds

    There have certainly been plenty of mass financial delusions throughout history, and the same questions arise there. Since a fool's money is limited and their emotional excess unlimited, the political ones end up doing so much more damage. It's funny how even Mackay, way back then, favors government subtly by concentrating on cultural, spiritual and financial more than political, where the true manias of history have been overwhelmingly political and caused by corrupt government. My favorite example is what Philip did to the Templars.

    Ah, so Trump is to blame for the violence of a gang of backwards lefties.

    I suppose the rape victim is to blame as well.

    Where did I say that Einstein? And yes, Trump has provoked violence. Kindly refrain from convoluting my remarks to suit your agenda

    Yes. The police inaction represents a large portion of the problem.

    But California does.

    I think it's fairly clear that California Penal Code Section 185 PC applies here.

    Exactly. This should not be taken lightly.

    Agreed.

    Someone should take the Berkeley police to court. I'd love to hear the defence for their inaction.

    Uh, right, it must be the fault of Trump/Russia. Amazing reasoning. Simply amazing.

    Yes. And instead of looking at these situations in terms of the principles involved, people continue to try to condone activities based on the politics involved. That's a very bad idea.

    Yes. But at some point, that is going to be seen as unacceptable. I believe we've reached that point.

    Typical reaction from the left. (1) We don't know who did this. (2) We can't blame the group for the actions taken by an individual. (3) Blame the president.

    What a wonderful contribution to the discussion. Oh, but you forgot to include the Russians. Otherwise, nice job.

    This is the typical obfuscation of the left-an attempt to externalize blame.

    You do realize that everyone knows its a lefty to blame, here and at countless other rallies where lefties dress in black, assault others, burn books, and pepper spray innocents who have a mainstream political view-all surreally under the guise of being ANTI-fascist.

    When I searched the issue last night, and when I just repeated that search, I found very, very little from Democrats/"progressives"/leftists. They seem to be very silent on the issue even though its getting a lot of attention from conservatives and Trump supporters. By their silence it seems that the "progressives" do support this type of violence.

    And since the "progressives" are behind almost all of the violent groups (antifa, black lives matter, the various "occupy" groups), and the "progressives" have a history of using intimidation and harassment against their political opponents, its logical to believe progs do support the "bike lock attacker".
