Marine Corps Recruiting Center in Berkeley vandalized… again
Posted on March 21, 2009
Did you think that the moonbats in Berkeley would leave the Marines alone now that Code Pink has packed up and left?
Please. This is the city that took their protesting of the center to near riot levels. It’s the city where the mayor said that the Marines weren’t welcome and should leave. So we should hardly be surprised that the scum that occupies Berkeley has attacked the center yet again.
The United States Marine Corps Officer Selection Office in downtown Berkeley came under attack once again Wednesday night when a group of vandals broke the building’s windows with sledgehammers and splashed them with red paint.
Officers at the recruiting center at 64 Shattuck Square were not able to say whether the incident was related to protests taking place throughout the rest of the country on the eve of the sixth anniversary of the Iraq war.
Berkeley Police Department spokesperson Officer Andrew Frankel said the police received a call at 8:54 p.m. Wednesday from an eyewitness who reported that three suspects were breaking the Marine Corps office’s plate-glass windows and splashing them with red paint.
Eyewitnesses saw the suspects leave the scene immediately after the crime, Frankel said. Berkeley police officers combed the neighborhood for suspects and talked to eyewitnesses but were unable to find the culprits.
However, an hour later, police officers arrested a man on an unrelated warrant who they consider a “person of interest” in the incident.
… Deboard said that, according to eyewitness accounts, a group of vandals attacked the recruiting station around 8 p.m., hitting its windows with sledgehammers and “slopping gooey thick red paint on them.”
He said police arrived immediately after they were called.
“We boarded up the windows as best as we could to prevent further damage,” he said. “The landlord is in the process of cleaning them up. He is paying for it.”
Deboard said nobody was present at the office when it was vandalized.
Of course they didn’t vandalize it when the Marines were inside. They’d get their asses kicked and they know it.
Here’s a picture of the damage:
Of course, liberals support the troops. Remember that.
Quick update: it turns out that liberals in Berkeley are, indeed, gloating about the attack (HT Michelle Malkin):
At 9PM on March 18th, the eve of the 6th anniversary of the war in Iraq, a group of persons wearing masks smashed the windows and splattered red paint at the U.S. Marine Corps Recruiting Center in Berkeley, California.
The center has been the target of protests for the last 18 months, and stands as a symbol of U.S. militarism and imperialist wars. The act of property distruction stands alone as the embodyment of frustration of a people whos government does not listen to or care about them.
Police have not made any arrests but are reviewing the tape, said Sgt. Mary Kusmiss. A sledgehammer and a crowbar were found in a nearby garbage can nearby, and are being reviewing as evidence. After breaking windows and improving the Marine Corps logo at the center, the group wearing masks and dark clothing scattered in three different directions, police said.
As of the time of this posting, no one involved has been arrested. The act was easy. You and a few friends could have pulled it off any day.
NO MORE IMPERIALIST WARS!!!
NO MORE GOVERNMENT!!!
SMASH THE STATE!!!
I’m somehow not surprised.

When Comrade Obama forces the civil crisis he seems to desperate to create, I dearly hope that the troops will have the option of firing upon the citizens who love and respect them, or the Code Pinkos, Soros-funded traitors, and their Obama-Pelosi-Reid masters. I have a feeling there will be millions of dead hippies and a glorious new world can begin from that day. Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty we shall be free at last!
Civil War 2 is coming soon. Obama wants it, we cannot stop it. Choose your side and get ready, people.
A group of vets needs to be waiting in waiting and kick the ever loving snot out of every last bastard who pulls this crap. As an army vet who served ‘67 to ‘69, this totally pisses me off. As was stated above, Civil War 2.0 is coming and the other side’s not going to like the outcome.
Just a bunch of stupid kids, they will get caught sooner or later and be luckey if jail time is all they get. Nam era protesters put razors in their shoe toes and slashed police,
people were killed, no civil war then, why now? because we have a black president?
Dont get too carried away.
because we have a black president?
No. Because we have an anti-American, Communist, Stalinist, Alien President. He wants a Civil War, but he still thinks the troops would be on his side. They won’t. Can’t wait.
Hampton said: no civil war then, why now?
Because back then the socialist marxist didn’t have the financial backing, organization, or own and operate all aspects of entertainment and information (Hollywood & leftwing media) and couldn’t infiltrate and corrupted all branches of government and academia as they have today.
And with the financial support of Lewis & Soros (OSI) and his 92 socialist marxist organizations buying the power of the White House and slowly dismantling Our Constitution, Religious Freedoms and Democracy as we know it, it’s not hard to understand “why not then”, unless you’re a socialist.
It’s sad that a majority of the American people, our countrymen, have decided to embrace socialism as though it were some kind of blessing and that they’re willing to surrender their freedoms and personal sovereignty for it. (ó¿ò)
I think that if the perps did not find a Marine center they would just throw stones at their neighbor’s windows.
Some people take longer than others to grow up and find a purpose in life.
May they find peace (or arrest).
When FBI Profiling, and the right to bear, and own Arms is out of controll, or looks like 2nd am. right will be veto, Then I will give you my Attention. People say we are here already, I cannot tell if that is true.
No one will ever take my guns. Things have been so [edited] lately, I dont give a f**k
2nd Cival war?? I will kill anyone who fu8ks with me or my family I dont give a sh*t what side you are on. Would you rather have Bush another term?
Call me a scoialist to my face Mack,
The era of Democrats and Republicans is comming to an end, If you can’t see a better picture in the future, (maybe far future), then start imagining, we can’t
continue the way we are going. Why does it always have to be war to solve things? cant we just grow up??????????????
