UC Berkeley police are investigating the theft of names and emails of people interested in joining the Berkeley College Republicans, the student group whose invitation to Milo Yiannopoulos of Breitbart News prompted a night of student protests and anarchist mayhem last week.
The Republicans had their usual table set up on Sproul Plaza at noon on Feb. 2, the day after the forced cancellation of the Yiannopoulos talk, when someone approached and took the signup sheet, said Sgt. Sabrina Reich, spokeswoman for the campus police, who received a formal complaint about it on Saturday.
Although members of the Republican group recovered the signup sheet, “the individual took a photo of the list and fled the area,” Reich said.
Later, people on the list received “harassing emails” asking about their attendance at the Yiannopoulos event and warning of “negative repercussions,” such as making their names and addresses public, Reich said.
Meanwhile, a blogger who opposes Yiannopoulos and the student Republicans has posted the list on the Web. The Chronicle is not linking to the blog post because the students identified on the list haven’t agreed to make their names and emails public.

Next time, do not even have a physical sign up sheet, unless it remains in one person’s custody at all times.
They should already know that you can never trust a Socialist.
Old skool Ruskie Comrades hacking attempt???
Well the person or persons who obtained that list and are sending the threatening messages needs to be discovered, criminally charged for terroristic threatening, theft, etc. and sued civilly for harassing communications, intentional infliction of emotional distress, etc.
Now the Brown Shirts will attack the republicans in their homes. How quickly the LW Fascism is spreading

They better make sure the police get involved and stay involved on this one...whoever stole that data will probably start stalking those people, IMO!
They’re going to get the war they say they want.
It will end badly for them.

Frickin terrorist tactics.
This is straight-up Brownshirt stuff.

It really sounds like the Feds need to go there, a-la-Ferguson, etc.
Trump needs to act.
PING!
The Stasi would be so proud.
That is what happened in 2008 and 2013 when California voters
decided against Gay Marriage. Somehow, many voters were identified and harrassed at work or at home. I never heard of anyone being charged with data theft and going to jail over it. Not one person to my knowledge.
Our most recent Atty. General simply made the personal decision not to defend or assist anyone who disagreed with that proposal. These Atty.s General never ,missed getting one paycheck. In fact, one of them is now a Senator’ Kamala Harris. Ms. Harris, by the way, was not born in the United States. Not required for that office, I guess.
Now we have a new Attorney General who might do his job properly.
These people were ready to do just that - now they are pissed and going to try to start a rebellion in the face of a growing conservative revolution. Apparently this is what happens when you mix pot, anti-depressants, liberalism and start believing in delusional BS - violent self-indulgent narcissistic rage follows - good times
