@Grlyflynn I said witnesses told me a cop got punched. The cops knows he got punched. There's no big secret reveal here that adds jeopardy

@DaveId I'm not arguing with you about this on Twitter -
@DaveId@hyphy_republic Makes you wonder about all the other provocateurs out there. -
@sbailey85@DaveId no. i have been watchin uc's at protests for years. they surveil. these got caught in a small march and flipped out -
Noah Berger's account differs from what witnesses told me: pointing pistol AFTER he & his partner attacked http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/12/11/us-usa-new-york-chokehold-oakland-idUSKBN0JP1YX20141211 …

Kind of makes more sense, but witness detail about sideways gun right, so not sure. This piece doesn't clarify when baton came out.
-
@DaveId I was right there, infact I demasked the taller cop -
@DaveId the black man who was arrested was not the aggressor, he knocked the As hat off of the shorter black "undercover" cop -
@DaveId the two men NEVER identified themselves as police, and the protestor who was arrested struck AFTER being tackled#berkeleyprotests -
@DaveId FWIW, KTVU ran a Bay City News story which had yet another variation of witness account of incident: http://www.ktvu.com/story/27606016/undercover-cop-pulls-gun-on-demonstrators … -
@davidcolburn I just spoke with another witness who told me about protesters yelling "leave," the mask pulling, and the cops pushing people -
@davidcolburn ...and later gun waving, but witness didn't see arrest. Witness said Reuters' characterization of "attack" on cops off base. -
@davidcolburn Berger's account is most plausible, everyone else, including@DaveId, is anti"snitch", will omit all misdeeds by protesters. -
@DylanLP you should prob. delete this tweet for yr own protection. <3 -
@davidcolburn If that's the way it happened, it's messed up. Person with mask (undercover) pushes someone, someone pushes back & is arrested -
@davidcolburn Radical witnesses, all sworn to cover each other's asses. Trust them or the riot-veteran photo journalist? Easy choice@DaveId -
@davidcolburn Haven't exactly nailed it yet, but I think all of the variations, incl my retweets last hour or so, overlap and don't conflict -
@DaveId I see a fair amount of consistency, but the specifics of what happened before gun was drawn will effect how a lot of people see it. -
@davidcolburn When you have Reuters oversimplifying that protesters attack then gun, not helpful, but that's how corp media tends to roll
