1. That would be ASSAULT......

Asshat wearer should be arrested for ASSAULT. Plain and simple.

3. Pretty sure that he was

A man seen in video wearing a red "Make America Great Again" baseball cap as he doused demonstrators with bear spray at the Santa Monica Pier on Saturday remained jailed without bail Sunday in connection with the alleged attack, authorities said.

David Nicholas Dempsey, 32, who was also accused of violating his parole stemming from a prior weapons violation conviction, was being held without bail pending his initial court appearance, according to Santa Monica Police officials and Los Angeles County booking records. He was described as an Orange County resident.

He was booked on suspicion of prohibited use of a tear gas weapon, assault with a caustic chemical and violating parole, police said.

He was seen in witness video arguing with protestors opposed to President Trump when he began spraying the crowd with a large canister of pepper spray intended for deterring bear attacks. At one point, he's seen walking up to a man who was lying on the ground and spraying him directly in the face at close range.

16. Felonies, we hope, which would forfeit him the right to own a gun forever. . . . nt

2. 'flag burning commies'???? Seriously? Is this guy Archie Bunker reincarnate??

It's never their fault - never their responsibility. Even when it's caught on video. Bet that came as a surprise, for him.

4. More trump instigated violence.

5. Deranged motherfucker

6. Pepper spray for now

As they see their God sent profit getting closer to justice, it will be guns. Pro life, family values, Liberty, freedom, party of Franklin Graham and Evilgelical hypochristians. There will be blood, and Fox will praise it as they are the Kurd slaughter. The society Billionairs are fine with living in, with off shore criminal cash, and full power. Today's Supreme Court ruling on gerrymandering is another nail in the coffin of democracy, the final nails, will be slaughtering our very on citizens by brain deads. MAGA.

7. putin's gotta

be loving this stuff.
I wonder if the guy smokes weed as he was wearing a shirt with cannabis leaf pattern. If he does, maybe
he need s to switch strains. Mellow out a tad.

8. Of course these cowards always take no responsibility, lie that it was the other side that attacked

Seen this too many times to count. Fascist supporters disrupt, cause violence, assault, and then when the police show up its all pointing fingers back and forth, and the police just charge everyone or no one. Good thing there was a camera.

9. Imagine what it will be like if Trump should make it to the General

when he loses...I'm afraid it will be more than pepper spray.

We are living the 1930's all over again.

10. Lock him up

[RKP5637]

11. Typical tRump supporter - raging stupid asshole! n/t

[LakeArenal]

12. "I was attacked". Then " I didn't do anything"

Must have been the helpless person’s (on the ground) fault.

Then his buddy there to claim witness.
Burn in Hell you fuckers.

PS love how Putin’s step children claim we are the Commies

18. They need to use war language to justify committing atrocities

if they can make themselves believe they are being attacked by a person lying on the ground, they can justify violence and spraying chemical weapons in "self defense".

Trump has encouraged violence against peaceful protestors at his rallies, and even acknowledged it's illegal by promising to pay the legal fees.

They consider speech to be dangerous enough to justify a violent response.

[real Cannabis calm]

14. K&R Was the neo-Nazi arrested?

[IronLionZion]

15. Charge him with terrorism

and treat him like he sprayed harmful chemicals to intimidate a crowd of civilians to promote a political agenda...

[SCantiGOP]

17. Pepper spray is really nasty stuff

As I found out several times in May of 1970.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

20. Notice two things:

1) That was NOT a personal protection spray; it was the professional-sized can for use on dispersing a large crowd, as in police-issue size and

2) He had leather gloves on his hands so that his skin was protected from any absorption of the spray.

This was a planned, coordinated assault on a peaceful demonstration. Those people injured - and pepper spray CAN cause serious ophthalmalogic damage - should sue this punk bitch for every thing he ever hoped to earn in this life time. There was NO excuse for this behavior. More typical violence seen from the trump crowd. LEO need go put out the word that these kinds of attacks on innocent people SHALL NOT be tolerated.

It's only going to get worse from here on out. Stay alert, folks. Stay safe.

19. That was at least a 6 man crew that did that.

Go to 1:01 and pause, on the left guy in black hat and camo maga hat, to the right of him guy with flag and red and black shirt, this is the guy that starts the violence by pushing in at 1:29, back to 1:01 guy to the right and behind the guy in the black red shirt is the guy with sunglasses, black shirt black hat with flag on wooden pole and army backpack, down right guy with reg maga hat, black trump shirt and white earbuds. To his immediate right pepper sprayer with blue and black shirt with red maga hat. Watch from 1:01 at .25 play back speed. At 1:17 ponytail guy with black shirt moves in and communicates with pepper sprayer. At 1:18 guy with black shirt and braids center bottom. He moves in an protects their right flank after the attack at 1:39. At 1:18 I recognize the little girl in all pink (she is grown) and her father as the guy in the red hat, white earbuds and black shirt as John Turano (based spartan) and his daughter.They communicate and move into the front line, then at 1:29 guy with red/black shirt pushes in. The other guys rush in straight while the pepper sprayer flanks from the left. This is group and they are using military style tactics on us. We need to be aware of what is happening. Its not just one guy, its a movement.

21. Convicted felon. Typical trumper.

He can't help but attract the worst people. The flotsam and jetsam of America.

22. DO NOT TAKE CHILDREN TO RALLIES!

Every rally i’ve attended since Trump’s election always has children there. Many are even in strollers. I don’t get it. I show up with water bottles and wet bandanas in my backpack.

These are right-wing terrorists trying to incite violence and commit violence. They are answering Trump’s call for civil war. The closer Trump gets to impeachment, the more emboldened, the more irrational, and the more violent these radicalized terrorists will become with their crimes. Please keep children safe at home.

23. "DO NOT TAKE CHILDREN TO RALLIES!" Excellent advice.
