A suspended Orange Coast College student who was also the subject of a restraining order obtained by the Coast Community College District was arrested Monday for allegedly slashing the tires of two Campus Safety vehicles and carving a swastika and “fuck the nigger” into the hood of one the units.
Robert McDougal, 21, of Costa Mesa, was booked into the Costa Mesa jail on vandalism and hate crime charges on Monday but later released on $20,000 bail.
Clayton Spivey, editor-in-chief of OCC’s Coast Report, got the scoop on the arrest and McDougal’s release from custody. Spivey’s reporting indicates the arrestee was previously suspended for repeatedly disrupting a chemistry class in late February. The restraining order applied to the Orange Coast, Golden West and Coastline campuses.
Spivey quotes John Farmer, OCC’s chief of Campus Safety, saying the vandalism happened around midnight outside the Campus Safety office, where a staff member said he saw McDougal, who was obviously familiar to security by then. He was previously arrested after he disrupted a class in the Chemistry building and was later subdued by Campus Safety with pepper spray on Feb. 27, reports Spivey, who adds McDougal subsequently served a 10-day suspension but returned to campus two more times on Feb. 28 and March 3.
Costa Mesa Police got the call around 1:30 a.m. Monday from Campus Safety about the vandalized vehicles, according to Roxi Fyad, the department’s Public Affairs manager. Responding officers then contacted McDougal, who was arrested at his home on suspicion of felony vandalism and a hate crime due to the scratchings.
He bailed out Tuesday.
Fyad noted it will be up to the Orange County District Attorney’s office on what exactly McDougal will be charged with—if anything.
“McDougal, in the past few weeks, had been arrested twice for battery on a peace officer and battery on a school employee,” Fyad says.
In his follow-up, Spivey quotes OCC President Dennis Harkins saying campus public safety officers have increased patrolling efforts and ask anyone who spots suspicious activity to call Campus Safety at 714.432.5555 or to call 9-1-1.
As you can see above and below, McDougal is quite active on social media promoting white nationalism, the alt right movement, anti-Semitism and retribution against anyone who disagrees with his world view.
Breitbart last June posted video McDougal shot of a UC Irvine student protest against invited speaker (and since shamed) Milo Yiannopoulos.
To get a fix on how McDougal came out the way he has, check out what he wrote under another of his handles, “The McDougle Bugle,” in a Discus post a year ago titled, “Luminous Beings Are We:”
I have severe ulcerative colitis, I park in handicap, have lost half my blood at one point, go to the bathroom 15-25 times a day, have gone through a dozen drugs, still have to take immune suppressing drugs for the rest of my life, have sh*t my pants on tons of occasions at public places; college campuses, the gym, a freaking airport in between connecting flights and I had to get on the plane like that.

… You realize like 99% of guys don’t have girlfriends and getting sex is like impossible from personal experience. How the heck do you get sex in Finland with a stay-at-home job. Who do you have sex with up there? I live in SoCal. I usually just ask random girls everywhere I go everyday if they want to be friends or hang out or something and Iv’e blown 15,000 dollars or so at strip clubs this year cuz the thirst is real and trynna to expland female connections. No luck. I’m a teenager so unfortunately, I got braces for 13 more months and acne. Not permanent, but torture in that none of my pussy outages are working.
Perhaps dude just needs to get laid?
