The UCLA Police Department interviewed witnesses and victims in connection to the violence that erupted at the encampment, reviewed security camera footage of the masked man and later identified him as On. Pro-Israeli counterprotesters armed with fireworks, gas irritants, and blunt objects violently attacked students and faculty in the encampment for hours as private security guards and campus police watched from a distance.
But the DA is saying it just happened organically…
Gascón goes on to say that there is “no evidence to suggest that Mr. On was working in collaboration with any other individuals, and our investigation found no proof of conspiracy or any organized effort by Mr. On related to the incident.”
It was just a coincidence the attackers all dressed the same, and wore the same white masks totally a coincidence. /s
What, are you implying they somehow planned to all show up armed and uniformed? Ridiculous, the odds of such a thing.
Peaceful protesting only works for so long.
Instead, the Los Angeles district attorney’s office announced that after reviewing the evidence against 18-year-old Edan On, the case was referred to the city attorney’s office for a possible misdemeanor filing.
On was identified as a counterprotester at an April 30 pro-Palestinian demonstration at the UCLA campus. In widely shared videos, a masked man in a white hoodie can be seen repeatedly striking protesters with a pole. Law enforcement sources identified the man as On and video of his actions were first aired by CNN.
To determine the true rulers of any society, all you must do is ask yourself this question: Who is it that I am not permitted to criticize?
It’s best not to (mis)quote Neo Nazis in general, especially so when you’re discussing Jews.
It’s not helpful discourse, provides cover for and platforms conspiracies, and gives the Zionists free ammo to point at any criticism as ‘antisemitism’ when these phrases are parroted. “Jews rule the world” is about as tired as it comes, and doesn’t do anything to help Palestinians

If I wound up quoting hate speech from a convicted white supremacist, I’d backpedal SO HARD immediately. I’ve dropped multiple symbols and sayings that got co-opted by bigots, I’d advise you to not echo a super harmful anti-Semitic trope, regardless if it’s attributed or not.
Right now is a perfect time to delete that comment.

I’ll link it again, because you missed it the first time. It’s wrongly attributed to Voltaire. Republican Thomas Massie of Kentucky just made that shit up to spin a conspiracy.
Let’s not ruin a good narrative weaving with easily verifiable facts!
What the fuck is misdemeanor assault and battery?
12mo & $1,000 fine, depending. Check with a participating DA near you!
Can he be sued in civil court?
