According to FR, he was arrested yesterday. And has been arrested more than 5 times since.

You have a problem with 5 different articles on the same subject being posted? As if that doesn't happen all the time with other subjects?

“The investigators amassed a number of pictures and then used them to identify Eric Clanton”

Those pictures weren’t assembled by investigators, that’s the work of 4chan.

I look forward to Berkeley’s mayor being charged with conspiracy.

[caww]

The Mayor needs to have been fired long ago.......hopefully they can get him along the way and might be why he’s still mayor. I hear he’s involved with all these groups himself.

[caww]

There were many working on this from the start....4chan has their folks as well....and brought it finally together...

[caww]

Me neither...but his parents can well afford I understand.....he’s a thug creep and I just hope he serves time....he’ll be passed around in jail you can be sure if he ends up there...

[caww]

Clanton’s attorney told the judge he was being followed, and that he and his client had received threats.....also detectives recovered evidence associating Clanton with anti-Fascist and anarchist political groups.

The creep was charged with ‘four’ counts of felony assault with enhancements... alleging that he caused great bodily injury. He also was charged with wearing a mask during commission of a crime, a misdemeanor.

the courtroom was crowded ‘’’’with media and protesters’’’’. At the start, Judge Thomas Nixon announced that the court had learned someone was live-streaming the proceedings over the internet. Nixon warned the courtroom would be cleared if he could confirm that.

Soe one wrote....”Allow each person that was hit in the head by this liberal loon to take five swings at his head with the same lock and call it done.”

Federal charges should be brought too. Which Federal law did he break? Idk. I'm sure there is one among the gazillion the left always want shoved down our throats.

It was reported on another thread that the "professor" has already been charged with a felony and his bond is set at $100,000.

Maybe he could set up another crowdfunding page and not raise any money again.

It is hard for me to have any sympathy for him.

The Left is totally crazy. Like the Islamists, they hate more than life itself.

[Texas Fossil]

It is a hate crime.

[Pelham]

Fired isn’t enough... it’s been apparent since the Milo riot that he works with Antifa. The DOJ needs to make an example of him.

[snarkytart]

Mom and dad will sleep well knowing their Antifa son they raised will soon be cleaning up a California prison from nazis. I'm sure this "professor" will have no trouble taking on the Neo Nazi gang members in prison like the nice man below:

I find it amazing that he was arrested at all. By Berkley cops, no less.

Say what? "Use of a firearm during a felony?"

This guy was packing a firearm when he was out hitting people from behind with a chunk of steel? I hadn't heard that part.

Oh, is his future ever laid out for him or what?

Two different protests.

In articles posted back when the Clanton bike-lock attack was breaking news there was mention of a possible connection to an earlier protest where a firearm was used.

No, they do it because they really are anti-Semitic and porn addled.
