  • An enraged University of California, Riverside stole a classmate's "Make America Great Again" hat, proclaiming that it "represents genocide."

  • The thief even prevailed upon administrators to prohibit the victim from wearing the hat on campus, becoming even more apoplectic when the property was returned.

Images of a student who stole a peer's MAGA hat at the University of California, Riverside.

A Trump-supporting student at the University of California, Riverside had his MAGA hat stolen by a peer who demanded that administrators refuse to allow him to continue to wear it.

A video of the incident obtained by Campus Reform shows an enraged female student taking the hat to the school’s Student Life Department as Matthew Vitale fruitlessly attempts to explain to the young woman that the hat is his property.

"Your f***ing freedom of speech is genocide, homeboy."   

“So this guy thought it would be a good idea to go into a conference wearing this f***ing hat,” the student who stole the hat states. “Look at the kind of sh*t he’s wearing, You know what this represents? This represents genocide—genocide of a bunch of people.”

Vitale then tries to explain that “you do not get to take other people’s property that is legally theirs in this country,” to which the unidentified thief replies, “man, f*** your laws.”

“Do you have any f***ing conscience?” she goes on to ask, questioning why Vitale would dare to wear a MAGA hat on campus and telling him that his “f***ing freedom of speech is genocide, homeboy.”

“I swear to God I could burn this sh*t. I swear to God I could burn this sh*t,” she continues as several staffers look on.

“Are you people not going to do anything? She is stealing my property,” Vitale pleads, though the altercation went on for several more minutes.

“We will need to return his property to him, but we can talk about…” one university employee begins to explain before being abruptly cut off by the student thief.

“How about we talk about not letting him wear this sh*t on campus?” the thief retorts, while Vitale later tells a growing presence of administrators that “the fact that you people haven’t gotten this back for me is sad and wrong.”

[RELATED: Female student attacked for wearing Trump hat on campus]

“That’s full of sh*t, because you all are just going to, like, mediate this and make it so like we’re all ok here, freedom of speech, whatever. How about we think about what’s actually going on in this country?” the thief subsequently responds to requests from administrators to “calm down.”

The altercation continued for several minutes until the hat was relinquished to an administrator who then returned it to Vitale, though not before his fellow student got in the last word.

“F*** your f***ing freedom of speech, boy. F***it. F*** it because your freedom of speech is literally killing a lot of people out there. That’s what it is, because you’re out there wearing hats like these that promote laws and legislations that literally kill and murder in the masses people of color,” she stated, before the two eventually walked off with separate mediators.

Campus Reform reached out to the university and Vitale for comment on the matter, and is currently awaiting responses.

Life is filled with risks...

What makes you think that the person receiving the punch doesn't pull out a gun on you?

So you want it BOTH ways, eh Buck?

You have THREE choices in life:

Preemptively or actively avoid the confrontation.

Run away.

Defend yourself.

So now you've turned your cap-grabber into a vicious bull dyke so you can justify assaulting a woman?

Lol x2...

Buck: ("It wouldn't matter. Violence needs to be quelled so that solutions can be found.")

So, your solution to violence is to leap in (regardless of who may be right), and escalating MORE violence to end the violence. Aren't you then risking a melee??

Stone's hypothetical violence in a situation is pure reaction as though adrenaline is pumping in his body all the tyme. That is purely reactive and solves nothing in a situation like this.

Being in a publick venue is important to note that heightened awareness is required by all participants. Being ready for a physical fight is silly and denies the purpose of being out and about in publick, wouldn't you say?

I thought I did. Has it changed? I would say it means:

  1. a rescuer, typically of a damsel in distress
  2. an investor who comes to the aid of a distressed company with needed funds to maintain liquidity
  3. a man who promotes for gender equality but jumps in to rescue a woman as soon as equality isn't working

I suppose now you'll tell me that it can also involve strap-on objects and intimate electrical devices. If so, I probably prefer to remain ignorant.

I fully agree.

Being ready for a physical fight is silly and denies the purpose of being out and about in publick, wouldn't you say?

I would say, readiness in anticipation of a possible physical confrontation or violence -- in a public venue in which the usual suspects emit their hate-vibe -- is merely preemptive wisdom and an instinctive necessity. You more than most ought to understand that.

There is little purpose being in a publick venue prepared for a fist fight as Stone suggests. We should be pursuing more purposeful actions and in a college setting, such as in this case @UCR, it would be educational goals.

Stone doesn't get "it." He is totally out of the mainstream. He is out on the cusp of the moon.

IOW, you acted like ANTIFA and Black LIES Matters, once Trump was elected. Typical liberal behavior... acted like an asshole because your AGENDA was in danger.

Thanks for clarifying.

I was always a little disappointed at Goldi for not being smart enough to see through your bullshit. I'm equally as disappointed at Stone for allowing a filthy LIBERAL like you the venue for your intolerant trouble causing AGENDA... just because you have a few good Libertarian qualities.

sucking the teat off taxpayers.

My pension(s) are fully funded by employee contributions. It's only when the state STEALS from the pension fund to balance liberal budgets, is when tax funds are used to keep the retirees monthly payments solvent.

NYS retirement system has never been stolen from (even though Cuck Fuomo has tried several times to pay for his socialist AGENDA)... so NYS is able to payout retirees SOLEY on employee contributions and investments in Mutual funds.

Now, the state I live in now has stolen from the states retirement fund and it's currently IN THE RED paying out its retirees... but I'm not in the states retirement, I'm in a COUNTY retirement... and that has never been stolen from and as healthy as NYS (but smaller).

So shut your lips about the "government teet". I did not work in that shithole libtarded cesspool called KOOKIFONIA. My pension didn't need tax dollars to assure member payout.

#103. To: Tooconservative, A K A Stone (#59)

Of course, I could always point to one rather well-known case of recovering stolen property.

Wiki: O. J. Simpson, Las Vegas robbery

You could, but that would be dumb. That was armed robbery of property that did not belong to Simpson, and multiple other felonies. A more appropriate famous case would the that of Bernhard Goetz, the so-called subway vigilante. "The case was defended by Barry Slotnick and Mark M. Baker. Slotnick argued that Goetz's actions fell within the New York State's self-defense statute. Under Section 35.15, 'A person may not use deadly physical force upon another person ... unless ... He reasonably believes that such other person is committing or attempting to commit [one of certain enumerated predicate offenses, including robbery].'"

You seem to forget that, in the O.J. armed robbery case, collectibles dealer Thomas Riccio secretly audio recorded the pre-robbery (conspiracy) meeting, and the robbery itself. O.J.'s crew did not just take O.J. 's alleged property, but they scooped up everything, including numerous baseballs signed by Pete Rose and Duke Snider, about 50 lithographs of Joe Montana, and even Bruce Fromong's cell phone. It was armed robbery on audio tape, and the tape was admitted as evidence at trial. O.J. and crew were on hotel surveillance tape carrying the stuff down the hall.

From your source:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O._J._Simpson

Simpson was charged with multiple felony counts, including criminal conspiracy, kidnapping, assault, robbery, and using a deadly weapon.

[...]

Simpson and his co-defendant were found guilty of all charges on October 3, 2008.

Nobody involved removed Simpson's property from his person, or anywhere else. They were collectibles dealers who had purchased the stuff.

The Simpson armed robbery in no way resembles a case of defense of property. Your legal theory would lead to absurd results, something that is a usual indicator of an absurdly wrong legal theory.

Indistinguishable cases which would accord with your idea that if one removes something from your person without touching you, you cannot use force to regain your property.

ONE: A pickpocket removes your wallet from your pocket. He never touches your person but you detect the theft and.... you must watch him walk away.

TWO: Granny is walking down the street with her purse. A yute does not touch her person but grabs the purse strap and removes it from granny's possession, and proceeds to run away. Granny must just say goodbye to her purse?

Granny is too old to engage the yute in combat, but it just so happens that she has three grandson's right nearby. Two play linebacker and the other is a cornerback. They see what transpires and take off in pursuit of the yute. The cornerback looks like Darrell Green tracking down Tony Dorsett. He tackles the yute and brings him down face first onto the pavement. The two linebackers catch up. The yute resists and tries to escape. The cornerback stopped him. Now the linebacker bops him and drops him. It is all caught on videotape. They hold the yute and call the cops. Who do the cops arrest?

If you take property off Granny's person, even without touching Granny, if reasonable, Granny or others assisting Granny have the right to stop you, bop you, or drop you, depending upon what force you make necessary.

As for your ridiculous questions:

  • Is it reasonable for a man to punch a woman to retrieve his $5 MAGA cap?
  • Is it reasonable for a man to stab a woman to retrieve his $5 MAGA cap?
  • Is it reasonable for a man to shoot a woman to retrieve his $5 MAGA cap?

If in resisting the man's effort to retrieve his $5 MAGA cap, robbed from his person, the woman resists with force, all reasonable force may be used. If she pulls a knife, a threat of deadly force, it would be reasonable to use deadly force in reply.

What one may do in response to robbery is not related to the value of the stolen property. It could be a $5 cap or a $5M cap.

Or we could agree to disagree since I could care less to begin with and probably won't believe anything you say if you can't find specific cases where someone was charged for retrieving stolen property and acquitted after using violent force by 1) punching, 2) stabbing, 3) shooting.

There is no case of receiving stolen property anywhere in the discussion.

There is a case of theft or robbery.

The only such cases where you will find a conviction is where the thieving yute is the defendant. If not the defendant, he is the decedent. They do not charge the good citizen for resisting robbery, mugging or carjacking. Even the good citizen who assists somebody else subjected to unarmed carjacking, and intervenes by confronting the carjacker at gunpoint, and shooting and killing the carjacker when he charges at him, is found justified and not charged criminally.

Suspect dead after man with concealed carry permit intervenes in alleged carjacking in Orem

Posted 2:46 pm, May 2, 2015

Updated at 09:23PM, May 2, 2015

[excerpt]

"Subject gets out of the truck, goes over and pulls the lady out of the silver Mercedes, starts to get in the car, she's screaming for help,” said Captain Ned Jackson of the Orem Police Department.

The suspect attempted to carjack the woman in a Mercedes at about 11:18 a.m., and that's when a shopper, so far only identified as a 31-year-old male, confronted the suspect.

“Our citizen goes up at gun point, has him get out of the car, the guy gets out of the car,” Jackson said. "The suspect lunged and tried to get the gun from him, so at that point he's trying to protect himself and shoots the gentleman."

Police said the shopper, who had a concealed carry permit, was threatened and fired his weapon.

The suspect, who police have not yet identified, suffered a single gunshot wound and was transported to Utah Valley Hospital, where he died from his injuries.

Police say the man had several felony warrants. Officers are actively searching for the other two suspects involved in the original incident.

Officials with the Orem Police Department said the man who fired the gun is not facing charges at this point because it appears his use of deadly force was justified.

Yute, attempting to steal car left runnng, shot dead by owner.

Teen attempted carjacking suspect fatally shot by off-duty CFD lieutenant identified

Tuesday, August 22, 2017

CHICAGO (WLS) --

A 17-year-old boy who police said tried to steal the vehicle of an off-duty Chicago Fire Department lieutenant was shot and killed Monday morning on the city's West Side.

He was identified to the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office as Charles K. Macklin, authorities said.

A 45-year-old man, who fire officials confirmed is an off-duty CFD lieutenant, left his vehicle running in the 1400-block of north Lockwood Avenue in Chicago's North Austin neighborhood, police said.

Around 9:30 a.m., police said Macklin got into the vehicle. The lieutenant fired shots at the teen in an attempt to stop the suspect from running him over, police said.

Macklin sustained a gunshot wound to the chest and was transported to West Suburban Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 9:33 a.m. An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday.

The lieutenant has a valid concealed-carry license and firearm owners' identification card, police said.

Robber goes into store to commit robbery armed with BB gun. Owner shoots him four times inside store with a .38 and thief runs out of store, unarmed. Owner grabbed a second loaded gun, went outside, and shot thief in the back. County attorney: "Shortly after this incident I had the opportunity to review the video tape of the armed robbery, witness statements, and officer’s reports. Nothing in that evidence would support charges of any kind against Mr. Preble."

The right to self-defense: Lawyer says robbery victim ‘stepped over the line’

By Tim Potter
Wichita Eagle
July 13, 2013 3:42 PM

When the robber came into Uncle Ken’s coin shop, wearing a scarf over his face and pointing what looked like a handgun at Ken Preble, the shop owner had a right to defend himself.

Video cameras in Preble’s Independence shop that January day caught some of the bloody struggle that followed.

When Preble pulled out a .38-caliber handgun, the robber came at him, and the two went to the floor and scuffled. Shots rang out. A bullet shattered a bone in Preble’s forearm, and the man suspected of robbing him took four wounds, by his defense attorney’s count, to his temple, chest, abdomen, thigh. As the wounded robber left the shop – clutching about $2,800 but no longer armed with a BB gun that Preble thought was a 9mm handgun – the robber blurted out something: “You killed me, Ken.”

But what happened next turned Preble from victim to criminal, Wichita defense attorney Mark Schoenhofer argues. Schoenhofer is defending the man suspected of robbing the store, Adam J. Anderson.

The case illustrates how disputes can arise over claims of self-defense. Schoenhofer contends that Preble grabbed another loaded handgun, followed the robber out of the store and shot him in the back as he was fleeing. Schoenhofer said the investigation found that Preble fired again outside his business, and Schoenhofer said he deduced that the last shot is what left the robber with a fifth wound, to his back. Preble had no legal justification for firing that last shot because he was no longer threatened once the robber was fleeing, Schoenhofer said. Schoenhofer said Preble should face a charge himself, aggravated battery at the least. With that last shot, Schoenhofer said, Preble “stepped over the line.”

Schoenhofer said Montgomery County Attorney Larry Markle told him that Preble would not be charged and told him he thought Preble was in “imminent fear” when he continued to fire.

Preble declined to comment. Markle gave this statement by e-mail but otherwise declined to comment: “Shortly after this incident I had the opportunity to review the video tape of the armed robbery, witness statements, and officer’s reports. Nothing in that evidence would support charges of any kind against Mr. Preble. Since that initial review, additional evidence has been submitted by law enforcement, hearings have been held, and the defense has had time to submit any additional evidence they felt was relevant to my charging decision. At this time there remains no evidence that would support charges against Mr. Preble.”

Cops: Charges not expected against licensed gun holder who killed suspected robber

Dawn Rhodes and Rosemary Regina Sobol
Chicago Tribune
November 2, 2015

Police say charges are unlikely against a licensed concealed-carry gun owner who shot and killed a robbery suspect after he threatened a worker with what turned out to be a paint gun in Gage Park on the Southwest Side over the weekend.

"The Chicago Police Department is wrapping up its investigation and charges do not appear likely," the department said in a statement.

Police say Reginald Gildersleeve, 55, walked into the Agencia Mexicana at 2701 W. 51st St. around 7 p.m. Saturday. A customer was making a financial transaction with a worker at the store, which also serves as a currency exchange, when Gildersleeve, wearing a mask, announced a robbery and pulled out a gun, according to Anthony Guglielmi, a spokesman for Chicago police.

Gildersleeve and the customer "got into some kind of confrontation" and the customer pulled a gun and fired, hitting Gildersleeve several times, Guglielmi said. At least two workers were inside at the time, a 55-year-old woman and a 17-year-old girl, but no one else was hit.

Several law enforcement sources said Gildersleeve had been holding a toy gun, and one source said it was a paintball gun.

Gildersleeve had a lengthy arrest history, including at least one for robbery, and was out on bond from an unrelated incident from Oct. 23, according to police. He lived about three blocks from the store.

Police referred the case to the Cook County state's attorney's office to "determine if there's any reason to charge" the 44-year-old customer, who had a concealed carry permit and a firearm owner's identification card, Guglielmi said. Police also reviewed video surveillance.

You're comparing attempted armed robberies to a girl taking some nerd's cheap hat and refusing to return it.

Apparently you think that you're in the clear if you pull a gun and shoot some little kid who is trying to take even a Tic-Tac from you.

I would not agree.

You're comparing attempted armed robberies to a girl taking some nerd's cheap hat and refusing to return it.

No, you compared an armed robbery, the O.J. case in Las Vegas, to an unarmed robbery, a hat snatching.

I cited hypothetical examples of unarmed perps who did not touch their victim. A purse snatcher is grab and go. He grabs the strap and wrenches it away from a resisting Granny. A purse snatcher is indistinguishable from a hat snatcher.

A pickpocket tries to rob you without you even knowing it.

And robbery is robbery, whether you rob one dollar or a million. The value of the hat is immaterial to having committed the crime and opening up the perp to the use of reasonable force to reclaim the property, including deadly force.

One cited real carjacker pulled a shopper from her car. He was confronted by an armed good citizen. He was not armed and lunged to take his gun. He was shot dead.

Another cited carjacker entered an unoccupied running car. The owner, a Chicago Fire Department Lieutenant shot his ass dead. He threatened to use the car as a weapon, if you consider that armed.

In a store robbery case, the perp pointed what looked like a handgun at the owner. The owner pulled a real gun. They tussled in the store and the perp was shot multiple times. The unarmed perp ran out the door to escape. The owner grabbed another gun, went outside, and shot the fleeing perp in the back, ending his escape.

In the second store shooting, the perp was armed with a paint gun, and made believe it was a deadly weapon, threatenikng a worker. A customer pulled out a real gun and blew his shit away.

Only one perp was armed at all, and that was with a paintball gun.

In the Bernhard Goetz case, nobody touched Goetz or actually took any of his property. Goetz was the only one armed. He shot the four yutes in what was found to be justifiable self defense.

December 22, 1984, the Saturday before Christmas, about 1:00 P.M., Bernhard Goetz leaves his apartment at 55 West 14th Street and walks to the subway station at the corner of Seventh Avenue and 14th Street. He enters a car on the number 2 line, the IRT express running downtown, and sits down close to four black youths. The youths, seeming drifters on the landscape of the city, are noisy and boisterous, and the 15 to 20 other passengers have moved to the other end of the car. Goetz is white, 37 years old, slightly built, and dressed in dungarees and a windbreaker. Something about his appearance beckons. One of the four, Troy Canty, lying nearly prone on the long bench next to the door, asks Goetz as he enters, "How are ya?" Canty and possibly a second youth, Barry Allen, then approach Goetz, and Canty asks him for five dollars. Goetz asks him what he wants. Canty repeats: "Give me five dollars." Suddenly, the moving car resounds with gunshots, one aimed at each of the young blacks.

At this point the story becomes uncertain. According to Goetz's subsequent confession, he pauses, goes over to a youth sitting in the two-seater by the conductor's cab at the end of the car, looks at him, and says, "You seem to be [doing] all right; here's another... and fires a fifth shot that empties his five-shot Smith & Wesson .38 revolver. The bullet enters Darrell Cabey's body on his left side, traverses the back, and severs his spinal cord. There are other interpretations of these events, particularly an argument that Goetz hit Cabey on the fourth rather than the fifth shot, but in the early days after the shooting these alternative accounts are not widely disseminated.

Someone pulls the emergency brake and the train screeches to a halt. The passengers flee the car, but two women remain, immobilized by fear. Goetz says some soothing words to the fearful women, and then a conductor approaches and asks him whether he is a cop. The gunman replies, "They tried to rip me off." He refuses to hand over his gun and quietly walks to the front of the car, enters the platform between cars, patiently unfastens the safety chain, jumps to the tracks below, and disappears into the dark of the subway tunnel. Three young black kids lie bleeding on the floor of the train; Darrell Cabey sits wounded and paralyzed in the end seat.

A mythical figure is born—an unlikely avenger for the fear that both unites and levels all urban dwellers in the United States. If the four kids had mugged a passenger, newspaper reporters would have sighed in boredom. There are, on the average, 38 crimes a day on the New York subways. If a police officer had intervened and shot four kids who were hassling a rider for money, protests of racism and police brutality would have been the call of the day. This was different. A common man had emerged from the shadows of fear. He shot back when others only fantasize their responses to shakedowns on the New York subways.

George P. Fletcher, A Crime of Self Defense, Bernhard Goetz and the Law on Trial, University of Chicago Press, 1988, pp. 1-2.

Goetz was found guilty of criminal possession of a weapon, and not guilty on other charges such as attempted murder.

Apparently you think that you're in the clear if you pull a gun and shoot some little kid who is trying to take even a Tic-Tac from you.

When I say that, quote me.

When four yutes had neither touched Bernhard Goetz, nor had they taken anything, but he felt intimidated, he shot all four of them in justifiable self defense. In the Goetz case, the yutes had not taken anything of the value of a MAGA hat or a Tic Tac.

Explain that in your theory of self defense and reasonable force.

[Tooconservative #12] Well, good luck with the cops if you assault someone who has taken your MAGA cap.

When the wrongdoer assaults someone and takes their hat, taunts them with it, and will not return it, and goes to leave with it, the owner can use such reasonable force necessary to retrieve his hat.

Victims of hat snatching, purse snatching, mugging or carjacking can use whatever reasonable force is necessary to overcome the perp.

Good luck with your pressing charges against any user of reasonable force to thwart your attempted purse snatching from Granny who is protected by her three grandsons, one wide receiver and two linebackers.

They can stop you, bop you, or drop you, depending upon what force you choose to make reasonable.

Well, you can think that if you want.

I think it is bad advice to give out but I can't say I care deeply.
