One of the arrested “antifascist” agitators shouted a racial slur as he was taken into custody by Berkeley police near a free speech rally on Thursday.
The police presence was very different than nearly two weeks ago, when communist and anarchist agitators took pot shots at Donald Trump supporters, leaving many bloodied and injured.
This man reportedly “challenged people to a fight,” Tim Pool reported, and yelled, “F*ck these honkies!” as two officers, one black and the other white, led him away in handcuffs.

“F*ck you! I’m willing to go to jail for what I believe in,” he yelled.
Another agitator was arrested after he refused to remove a surgical mask from his face, despite repeated requests from officers. He did not have an ID on his person.

A man driving by reportedly received a ticket for not wearing a seat belt after he yelled “F*ck Trump!” at Trump supporters.
According to San Francisco Chronicle reporter Michael Bodley, five individuals were arrested, including a 52-year-old male who was “carrying a concealed dirk/dagger.”
