Berkeley Students Fight Back Police

[embalmerist]

STUDENTS are criminals IF they break the law.

[embalmerist]

Berkeley students are assholes trust me ive been watching these videos its like listen, if you dont listen then they will respond

[Zerroed]

Call me crazy, but I think we should have just mowed down all those fuckers with machine gun fire. Fuck the law, fuck the government, fuck your rights. Eat lead.

[ElGatoLoco698]

I thought everyone knew by now. Students are criminals nowadays. Cops think everyone lies.

[trollbane2]

in this video i saw several students attacking the police with sticks in their hands...they are lucky the police used restraint when dealing with this moronic violent attack on them..they would have been within their rights to defend themselves with lethal force.

[freeingthemedia]

Keep up the great work. Thanks for providing the video that we don't see on mainstream media. Citizens now need to provide the media since our mainstream media is controlled by the very few. Protecting the internet and freedom of speech is more crucial now then ever and the movement needs others to provide a real outlet for media and accountablility. The cameras are our weapons and all of us together is our power. Together we can spread the message of economic justice. CheckVidsfromOWC

[soulscan1]

TO ALL SOLDIERS,YOUR FIGHT WAS IN VAIN YOUR FELLOW COMRADS DEATHS WERE IN VAIN,HENCE THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE.So we that said we the people declare that we have the immemorial right to defend by force the inalienable rights which occupy could not protect by peaceful means. It is not a rebellion, ratgher it is self-defense against unjustifiable tyranny.THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS THE ILLEGALITY OF THE POLITICAL OPPRESSIONS,ENFORCED BY THE POLICE ONTO OCCUPY AND SIMILAR ABROAD.

[peerlesslondin]

today students..tommorow soldiers in the fight for freedom!!!!!

[jorgetellezperez]

...land of the free my ass!!! you gringos have the goverment you deserve after 200+ years of abusing weaker countries and cultures.... expect more of your police state

[PanteraFistPrint]

yeah who can fuckin obey when there changing the constitution, its turning dictator and no one is realizing. Shits gunna get worse and were gunna have no choice but to fight back

[Philip02K]

Officers must obey and respect constituitional laws. The law is created for everyone.

[PaulyZuko]

if the student attacked the officer first then the officer can defend himself, if the officer assaulted the student then the student can defend himself. I am biased to logical justice

[naziscontrolme]

i think the cops should shoot them point blank in the face YES WE CAN!! ty satan

[ziggyboi1995]

Swinging stuff at police? not a good idea.

[Lolzkun0]

so the police should use giant books to stop riots? lol, the things people say without properly thinking =w=;

[lamborger]

Why do people leap to defend the pigs. I see it happen on youtube very often. Pigs have no right to exist and they try to oppress the people. People can not "attack" the police, that implies aggression, violence against police can only be in self defense because their presence in itself is aggressive. If they show up to a protest, do you think they are there to bring cupcakes and cookies? No, they are there to suppress the people's rights. For god's sake...

[DonkeyPunchFTW]

@lamborger People can't just running around being jackasses, which is what happens at these riots/protests. Large groups of people following/yelling/harassing you is intimidating as shit, and obviously the people being protested can't stand up to it on their own. People have no fucking reason to even get close enough to cops to begin with. If cops are there it means turn the herp derp down because you are obviously doing something that is stupid.

[lamborger]

@DonkeyPunchFTW The cops have no right to exist, and if the people being protested against don't want to be "intimidated" then they can stop oppressing and exploiting the people. In truth, the people have every right to overthrow the rich by any means necessary, if the cops are willing to protect the oppressors, then they should be removed as an obstacle to liberation. People who march are not as threatening to me as people who will stop a life saving surgery for profit.

[lvcappuccino]

It is sad that Cal campus and UC Davis campus turned to a playground for armed cops where they can show their weapons.

[classickruzer1]

You FUCKHEAD protestors, you've had your 15 minutes, so go the fuck on !!! The REAL 99 % HAVE HAD A BELLY FULL OF YOU AND YOUR ANTI-AMERICAN BULLSHIT !!! If you think the cops are bad, you haven't seen anything yet !!! Wait till the public starts coming at you !!!! Then you'll have something to BITCH about !!! The public (REAL 99% ) have had enough of your stinking asses disrupting our daily lives !!! SO GO THE FUCK AWAY..NO ONE IS BEHIND YOU ANYMORE EXCEPT THE COMMIES, THUGS, AND LOSERS !

[YELLOWFIRE2]

@classickruzer1 ur an idiot your countrys being flushed down the drain ....wake up your being slaughterted like sheep!

[classickruzer1]

@YELLOWFIRE2 LOL...You are a FOOL !!! America is STRONG AND FREE and always will be...----- Other countries would love to see the USA fall, but will NEVER see it happen !!!! Protestors are very small percentage---maybe .0000000099% or less!!!! They have no purpose !!!! No change has come because of them and NEVER will !! Their SMALL numbers keep dwindling !!!! AMERICA---STRONG, FREE and BEAUTIFUL forever and ever and always !!! GO USA !!!

[butanerios]

@classickruzer1 You have no idea what you're talking about. if you think the public is benefiting from the current system then you are clearly ignorant. The reason the occupy movement has spread to every major city in the US and across the globe is because it is the PUBLIC WHO SUPPORTS IT.

[classickruzer1]

@butanerios LOL at your ignorance !! There are a few thousand protestors across the country !!!! About .00000000000000000000000000000­0000000000000099% of the population !!!! So go back to school and take another math class !!!! THE PUBLIC ARE THE ONES WHO HAD YOUR STINKY ASSES RUN OUT OF OUR PARKS AND STREETS !!!!! WAKE UP AND COME BACK DOWN TO REALITY !!! FOOL !!!

[butanerios]

@classickruzer1 .............there are hundreds who went to the occupy protest here in Eugene, OR where I am, and probably 600-1000 who went to the Portland one. Thats two cities, and you think that there are only a few thousand protesters across the country? Let alone the world? Have you seen the videos?

[classickruzer1]

@butanerios LOL Just like I said ...a few thousand ' scattered throughout the country here and there !!!! FYI There are 300 MILLION IN THE USA ALONE...So you think a few thousand equals 99% of 300 million ??? GET REAL !!! And add to that the fact that they run like little GIRLS when the cops come in to move them out shows that 99% or more aren't willing to STAND UP for what they believe .LOL. Very seldom are they on the t v news anymore !!! THEY'RE HISTORY !!! IT'S OVER !

[matty0234]

He hit the cop with a pole!! The kid got up and ran but the cop looked hurt. You people are pathetic, go to a city without law enforcement, like a bad part of St Louis or Detroit. Youd be dead. Cops keep crime from your peaceful suburban neighborhoods so you dont have to live in fear and you show no appreciation. Go to Mogadishu and live where there is no law enforcement trying to maintain order.

[CaptainsQuarters07]

@matty0234 I agree, but these kids are not in St. Louis or Detroit. They are at a school where the cops are not protecting them, but the university.

[cinderella1976]

i have been looking at alot of UC videos, is this the same university from last week?

if so

um, the pattern has to stop...i mean, leave, why do you have to be in the U anyways?

[Wesley53719]

These cop's have no clue of who they are protecting dont they realize there childrens future,education,their Jobs & pensions are at high risk,thousands of police officers are loosing their jobs due to cutbacks 50.000 in California alone the numbers are staggering THE PROTESTERS ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR JOBS & PENSIONS but they just don't get it In 2012 more then 100.000 Police Jobs will be LOST nationally due to cut backs, what will they do when they can't feed their children & loose their homes

[cantinflaz0420]

wow

[jaonti1795]

Yeah shame the cop's didn't shoot the guy that obviously attacked the officer.

[matty0234]

@jaonti1795 Im with you, man. Fuck these anti-cop hippies.

[butanerios]

@jaonti1795 go move to north korea buddy. You'd like it better over there.

[viero789]

@jaonti1795 They all deserve to get attacked. They are defending such bullshit changes.

[zzman305]

@jaonti1795 A beating doesn't deserve a bullet, it deserves and arrest

[WolfenFoust]

I want to see someone doing the DeMamp chant.

"SUCK OUR DICKS, SUCK OUR DICKS, SUCK OUR DICKS"

[guitarfreek1]

shame on the fucking camera man

[jonnyracerx]

"not their job..." Actually if if helps keep the peace, then yes it is. No competent cop does his job well without talking to citizens and neighbors.

Blocking access by itself is NOT A RIOT. nor is leaning on a fence.

Government derives it's power from the CONSENT of the governed.

You won't win this argument.

[guitarfreek1]

@jonnyracerx

you are completely right. finally. thank you.

[FoxeoGames]

@jonnyracerx Actually, riot laws are very open-ended. In my state, a riot is a group of 3 or more individuals who are together participating in a crime. Since blocking a public passageway is a crime, 3 or more people doing it together become a "riot." That is in my state; CA may be different.

Laws are actual, specific things, not fairy concepts argued by personal opinion on YouTube. Look up your state's statutes and become informed so you know the real facts.

[shrimpinpat]

love the guy saying bat"a"ns 00:38

[kylorhele]

Can't see what happened cause of when the video cuts in, but clearly that guy getting beat had a huge stick with him.

And I highly doubt the police enjoy hitting people. They simply have a job to do, and if people get intrusive enough they WILL get physical

[TammyFlores1]

Buddy grabbed the police baton that the police officer used against him after dragging him down the hill and the protester didn't even try to hit the police officer back... look again at :10 they are clearly dragging this protester down the hill and then at :12 you see he got the baton and at :14 just ran away.

Shame on you Berkly Police!

[oldmac1]

It's not "fighting back." It's called rioting and it's illegal. I hope you all get tasered in the balls.

[jonnyracerx]

@oldmac1

I hope a cop beats the piss out of you for no reason, with no witnesses, SOB

[oldmac1]

@jonnyracerx LOL. Really? You think that's what cops do? Go around beating people for no reason? There are bad cops, certainly. And in the end, they get what's coming to them. But don't break the law and then bitch about the cops that I EXPECT AND PAY to put you in cuffs when you do. If you resist, by GOD I'll be pissed off if they don't use force to take your ass down. Cheers, numbnuts

[jonnyracerx]

@oldmac1 LOL

Do I think? Sometimes. Usually only after they've psyched each other up over what they consider a surly mob. However, I know of at least 1 Sno Co Deputy that has written tickets for broken tail light - after BREAKING it himself.

I know an officer's wife that got beat by cops just trying to get home NEAR a protest, NOT involved!

Do you think I base my opinion simply by what I see on YouTube?? LOL

I've partied with cops, gone to BBQ, seen them cheat on wife at bachelor party, etc...

[oldmac1]

@jonnyracerx Like I said. There are bad cops. You seem to hang with them. I've had lots of interaction with police over the years -- as a reporter, as a citizen, as someone who called them for help. They're like anybody else. Some are good, some are bad, and some just belong in jail. The cops in this video are doing their job under really bad circumstances. To criticize them for doing their job of upholding order is absurd. One can't riot and claim the police aren't supposed to shut that down

[jonnyracerx]

@oldmac1 Some cops Are better than others, but Most aren't quite like everyone else. They often start out normal, but being a cop changes people. The arrogance, and "I'm right, no matter what" attitude even leads them to fight each other.

RIOTING? I don't see any riots, except for possibly scuffles the police are causing themselves. U.S. Constitution says we have a right to protest the gov't. Denial, or infringement of it is criminal and anti-American. "just doing my job" is NO excuse

[jonnyracerx]

@oldmac1 If they were 'Just trying to keep order' or stop crime, They'd join in the crowd walk around and Talk to them like a NORMAL PERSON. Not THREATEN them.

Many of these police agencies are actually causing, and trying to cause TERROR to citizens who are not committing any crime! - That's my problem with it/ them.

1 cop at a time will usually act like a decent person, But these Gestapo squads take on an evil personality.

A crowd of cops can be worse, because they have a sense of power over

[oldmac1]

@jonnyracerx Just FYI, it's not their job to "join in the crowd and walk around and talk to them like a normal person." Their job is keep/RESTORE order. Don't belittle cops by trying to pretend that they're threatening or causing terror to citizens "who are not committing a crime." These people -- here, in this video -- WERE CREATING A CRIME. The constitution says we have a right "peacably to assemble." That doesn't mean rioting. It doesn't mean blocking access. Period. Get over yourself

[guitarfreek1]

@jonnyracerx

just because someone is a cop doesnt mean they are bad. think of it this way-- hypothetically, if everyone in the world was a cop, do you think they would be perfect? Hell no. They would break "laws" too. Not everyone has great morals. Cops just stick out because they are authority.

[jonnyracerx]

@guitarfreek1 @guitarfreek1 LOL.. ing

If everyone was a cop there would be near anarchy, fight over who's jurisdiction or authority. Ever seen 2 cops argue?, try a dozen at a time, or more.

Yeah cops can be good, bad - mostly in between, but in 'crowd-control' gangs, they turn into - Gangs! Empowered by their numbers, and sense of 'we are right because we're Cops' will even attack citizens who aren't doing anything wrong. - In Seattle they even beat another Cop's pregnant wife !

[Metal8Lover]

i would have loved to see a pig get beaten in this but people are just too soft nowadays.

[streetseli]

That little piggy looks SCARED AS FUCK!!! PUT US IN HANDCUFFS BEFORE FEELING SAFE ENOUGH TO HIT US!!!! Hold onto your belt of weapons you pussyholes!!!!!!

[7000ironman]

so, you like seeing hippie fucks being beat by cops do you? hummm. let me give you a definition of being a cop. they are brave fuckers when they pack together but catch them alone and they wont even look you in the eye. cowards to say the least! when people start fighting back and that time is coming..then lets seee how brave they are. when the police calls in the national guard that shows you one thing..THEY ARE SCARED TO DEATH!! coward fuckers!

[mrmootheirrev]

FUCK THE POLICE

[cheeseonfire2]

lol fuckin hippies

[joechien0218]

I went to Berkeley and I feel sad for these kids so brain washed up by their leftist professors, that they aren't even aware of this.

remember this, berkeley kids: A gov too big to give you whatever you want is too big to take everything you have......and *that includes "free education"

[agent4051]

Go Berkeley PD, fuck those tree hugging communist libtards up! Hooah!

[raoulthompson]

@agent4051 Hooah? Using a US military cry to rally around free speech being crushed. Not a reader.

[agent4051]

@raoulthompson I love seeing those hippie fucks getting the crap beaten out of them, especially after they protested the Marine Corps, spit on the marines, and called them child killers. So as a vet. and a current law enforcement officer, I have no sympathy for these waste of functioning human organs.

[jonnyracerx]

@agent4051 So... you a cop, huh? Oh I mean Piece of shit...

I bet you like to beat people, then arrest them for it. I hope you go to literal HELL, and I hope it's real soon! (and painful).

[agent4051]

@jonnyracerx Awww... your sweet sir. So I'm guessing your a hippie? Oh I mean a filthy fucking pinko.

[jonnyracerx]

@agent4051

HA! is that a joke? - I saw your page ... You are way pinker than I ever thought of.

You are a fool and a pseudo-NAZI that seems to respect the Soviet tyrant state

[vicrattlehead07]

so typical of a socialist bunnybrain grasping onto the losers doctrine and he doesn't even know it. (college kids) these babies are just pawns in their lefty professor's little red army. everytime I see numb-nuts in the city with che t-shirts I have an urge to smash their faces in... but these days you can't be sure because it may be considered mean trollish behavior and even a hate crime ...fuck sakes!! the main problem in this country IS self-loathing moral relativism bush derangement syndrome

[cynicsfaith]

I'm not going to pretend I care enough about politics and economics to know the progression of the national debts's increase, though I will assert that the national debt was ridiculously large to begin with. As for the president's seeming impotence, I blame the congressional democrats for being pussies, and of course a republican congress would vote against his stuff by default.

but this isn't a debate I'm willing to continue, I've already said my piece.

[vicrattlehead07]

@cynicsfaith Awww shucks... lib-tard at his best, wha... no explanations of the great keynesian spending and the alinsky methods are failing big time? too bad little man.. continue with your laundry washy washy

[cynicsfaith]

I bet that guy, who I guess is a student, tried to hit the cop with that stick. Assaulting a police officer is a felony, and I assure you, felons are criminals.

How now, protesters?

How do the police put up with this shit?

[JLE102191]

Berkeley police put up with a lot more shit and a lot more assholes with videocameras screaming "POLICE BRUTALITY" every 5 seconds then they should have to. Props to Berkeley Police for the professionalism.

[BrokenSp00n]

UC berkly has a bad rep wish they only brought the army national guard like in 1969 to make all of em shut the fuck up already

[AssHoleThunder]

these guys are idiots, what is going on in the police's mind right now? "shut the fuck up, i'm just doing my job"

[Marykriz]

sick bastards burn the fuck in hell.

[samten10a]

It looks like the cops are being assaulted for protecting some ones property.

[1111Davo1]

u didnt fight back police. fail title

[cobus556]

I hope you colleagues get beheaded in Iran !

[gotgank]

Gee, a tuition hike in Berkeley, the home of Socialism in America. I'm sure it was the Cops, and not the College, that raised the tuition. So, u break the Law and fight with the Police. Yeah, makes sense to me.

[thiefofpeace]

morons

[vicrattlehead07]

Berzerkeley...these dimwits will never get it! fight back my ass, they deserve to get their heads caved in! and this is a response to budget cuts HAHAhaHAhAhAHAha you dipshits deserve what you get when you vote for a commie like chairman Maobama fucking priceless! morons of the lowest order, you go to berkeley you might as well have a I.Q. of a turnip fucking retro-wanna-be hippies! I hate these douche-bags go home to your rich parents in yer gay Volvos stinky petully oil prius driving faggots!

[cynicsfaith]

@vicrattlehead07 HA! you wish that was the case. This may be exaggerated, but UCB has got be like 50% asian and I can almost guarantee you that they aren't involved in this crap. Also, Berkeley is pretty much the hardest university to get into out of all the UC's so those people are smart. The vast majority of students at UCB are definitely NOT hippies.

Only non-Berkeleyans call it "Berzerkley"; it's like calling SF "Frisco". : /

and to call the president a communist? classy...and ignorant...

[vicrattlehead07]

@cynicsfaith - what the fuck are you babblin' about you moron?? oh excuse me... I meant to say trendy hipsters acting like they're dissenting to be "cool" while most of these useful idiots voted for the socialist elitist jerk-face - your idol obama - btw - how's it workin' out for you? hahahahahahahaha 14.3 TRILLION this administration racked up for his banker buddies and GM, general electric who pays NO TAXES zero, zilch, nada and lets not forget gitmo and the war that we're not in right now!

[vicrattlehead07]

@cynicsfaith - WOW you're so smart "non-berkeleyan call it berzerkley it's like calling sf frisco" HAHAHAHAHA jesus fucking christ.. further proof liberalism IS a mental disorder! let me break it down for you fuck-nut! you're to moronic to have figured out the scam of PC-ism, Lib-tardism is all part of group think like your buddies in that stinky shit hole of a city who takes hard earned tax-payers money for city employees who want sex re-assaignment... lovely! YES we can... well maybe not

[cynicsfaith]

@vicrattlehead07 Dude, I can barely understand what you're trying to say through you're abusive phrasing. I think it's something like: "I disagree with your stance on the situation, therefore you're stupid." It kinda falls apart after that...something about liberalism being some kinda of 'group'? and sexual reassignment surgery using tax money? I'm kinda lost, try working on your grammar.

What I said wasn't really liberal, it was mostly factual. Actually, Asians are 42% of the population.

[vicrattlehead07]

@cynicsfaith - Fail you ewok... num-ne-nummy HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA there you understand that?

[cynicsfaith]

@vicrattlehead07 ok, I'm done with this. it's stupid and honestly don't care about your opinion anymore; it gets lost among your retarded-ass troll insults anyway.

Also, don't shit on Ewoks. They helped take down the Empire.

[vicrattlehead07]

@cynicsfaith - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHA but you cared enough to respond ewok . THANK YOU you proved my point HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA num-ne-num num-ne-num guuun-daa HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA fucking dork

[urasmore]

with the ever privatization of public education, this can only be seen as self defense

[mesaoneCCK]

oh, you have freedom of speech. But apparently you also have the freedom to get your teeth kicked in by a cop

[tafeykey]

our intention is for a peaceful protest, however, violent stats not by students or faculties, but by the polices. we talk, they act. since when was freedom of speech not allowed in the US? or was there ever really a freedom of speech?

[Conektid]

Since when did protest change from peaceful to "overtaking Wheeler Hall"...not in the street, but overtaking buildings!!! Come on!! That's just criminal.

[KrackedKranium]

This is why you fucks get shot in the head by average people

[asdkfjahew]

video is innappropriately named... that kid got his ass kicked. When are people gonna learn not to piss off the police. If you spit in a cops face while claiming not to be a criminal, you're gettin the stick just the same. Hopefully someday Berkeley will learn this.

[ruhideen]

whether you spit or not makes no difference,,,,mass killings of police is the solution according to some ,,,,and ummm the rbg movement has been raised up to mett police brutality ,,GONE are the days of restraint,,,,and rbg is building,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[xghostazsnx]

Provoking the police with violence is a stupid idea but as a UC student myself I understand the impact budget cuts/tuition increases have had on them. Students are paying more for their education yet due to lack of funding, many can't take the classes they need to graduate on time....very frustrating

[RandallFlaggNY]

Do Berkeley students understand that nobody takes them seriously? That Berkeley is a bad joke?

[cracktroop75]

Good job!

[nealx]

idiot students.

[Tearjerker88]

this is some serious shit.

[kardiomyozyt]

shame on the police!

[TomVeeTV]

Berkeley should be very proud right now.

...except for the police....
