FBI investigating identities of black-clad UC Berkeley rioters

Here's an article that makes a big attempt to cast blame on "The Right" for the recent rioting in California against Milo Yiannopoulos.

The claim is saying the FBI will be investigating the identities of the violent protestors mostly dressed in masks.

Some big names supporting this idea of a "Right Wing" conspiracy.

Professor Robert Reich even suggests "Breitbart" is involved !!

Flipping out crazy !!

FBI investigating identities of black-clad UC Berkeley rioters

In the six days since rioters hijacked a raucous, but peaceful protest against the right-wing speaker Milo Yiannopoulos, many have wondered who those masked marauders actually were. The 100 to 150 people who stormed Sproul Plaza and who UC officials said hurled fireworks, rocks, and Molotov cocktails at police were mostly dressed in black with ski masks or bandanas hiding their faces.

Were the troublemakers from the left? Or from the right?

Now the Federal Bureau of Investigation has been called in to help figure it out.

UC Berkeley Professor Robert Reich speculated on his website that right-wing agitators might have been behind the rioting. He wrote of the “possibility that Yiannopoulos and Breitbart were in cahoots with the agitators, in order to lay the groundwork for a Trump crackdown on universities and their federal funding.”

SMH. Does it matter what side of the political spectrum they were? Does that change their actions at all?

Kind of hard to pin it on right wingers after this interview don't ya think?

I hope they do investigate and get down to the truth. The majority of the time the acts of violence are perpetrated by the left themselves to make them look like victims.

Robert REICH sounds about right.

Cops just need to start instantly rounding up people they see with their face covered and that will keep peoples protests from getting disrupted.

They were from the LEFT.

How anyone can deny after watching the last eight years of Occupy Wall Street,Ferguson,Black Lives Matter, protesting of a presidential candidate including Berkeley.

It doesn't take the FBI to figure this out, and I wouldn't count on the FBI to get to the truth of it.

They'd prolly say those guys dressed in black and their faces covered didn't 'intend' to dress like that, and do what they did.

Berkeley,Califonia is not known for their large populations of ALT RIGHT Wingers.

I have a suggestion that may help idenitify some of these masked rioters next time.

This is far out there, but stick with me.

When they start rioting and breaking the law, the police should arrest them on the spot.

I know, I know, its crazy. But not only might we then be able to identify them, it may even stop innocent people from being beaten and their property from being destroyed!

In most stats it is illegal to cover you face unless it's Halloween. I know this in not normal law in a lot of colder climate states but CA should have some sort of similar law.

Next they'll be claiming SHE is a right wing plant.

That might go against the thinking of the Baltimore Mayor that said "give them some space".

Now this I agree with because between agent provocateur and Soro's reach, who the hell knows what is true anymore. I would hope genuine peaceful protesters would spread memo amongst themselves to do the same thing with masked people, and if someone gets destructive, make it a priority to stop them or at least back away and report them.

Now I feel that every protest will be inflamed by some type of saboteur, totally nullifying effect of and right to protest, which is one of our greatest rights(duties) as US citizens.

ETA: Maybe we need some new Guardian Angel chapters to fend for peaceful protestors at these events

My husband and I were debating about the black cats with mask.

They look very well organized and uniformed.

It kind of bring memories of art thieves movies stealing in the middle of the night.

I bet they were professionals on what they did.

a reply to: waftist

I'm actually weary about such a thing as the time will eventually come when The People will need to rise up. But for now they're rioting over MSM driven personal/partisan reasons, and its clear no cause will likely ever manage to keep just and on proper course when all that anyone against such cause just needs to send out some Paid Riot Squads to make them look bad.



I had considered perhaps the agitators were false flag operators, but we have a clear pattern of their movement being all about this sort of behavior, and then there's that whole BAMN interview as posted above to puts to rest that theory.

This SJWFRONT is the Nu-Nazism, and these Black Shirts scum are there to lead by example.

Isn't there a law against covering one's face in public? Seems I recall that, but I may be wrong.

a reply to: queenofswords

That's what I recall from the Dubya era, but I havent felt like looking it up.

Seems no laws that inconvenienced liberal terrorists were to be enforced under Obama. We'll see about now...

While wearing masks or disguises is not usually illegal, if someone wears a mask or disguise to avoid being detected by the police he or she could be charged with a criminal offense. Under California Penal Code Section 185 PC, it is unlawful to wear a mask or disguise in order to evade the police

In addition, I think beating innocent people and fire bombing buildings is also illegal.

But whatever crime they arrest them for is fine by me.

They are already trying that. It is not working.

Brilliant. Now why did the po-po at berkley not think of that. (could it be their mayors stand down order because they sure were acting like that)

a reply to: Grambler

Yeah. They use of fireworks was a new one to me when I saw BLM doing it last year.

Next the gov is going to be making their use in a "protest" a felony, I imagine.

I'd expect in a lot of states using them as weapons already would be. Hell, half the states they're already banned outright to begin with (if they 'shoot' or 'report').
