Rand Paul gets assaulted by his neighbor

[Fanatical Meat]

Liberal hate rears its ugly head once again.

Any verifiable evidence of this claim?
I truely don't know the answer

He's the elected Senator, so you're lying, again.

so what you saying is in order to vote for a candidate you have to like them.

are you really that stupid?

people have been holding their noses and voting for as long as there have been elections.

 

[vi edit]

Still haven't got a statement from the attacker. Am very curious to know his motive. Right now it's just right leaning sites pushing the political aspect. Maybe Rand was making passes at the guys wife. Maybe Rand's dog shit too many times in the guys yard. At this point it's all conjecture. Anesthesiology is one of the *THE* hardest of the specialties. Curious what made this guy snap.

Educated guess that the neighbor wouldn't have assaulted Ryan had he loved him instead. Boucher is a registered Democrat, highly critical of President Trump, and a staunch advocate for gun control and healthcare reform. Yes, he's a liberal...full of hate.

"The man responsible for attacking Sen. Rand Paul Friday afternoon was an avowed liberal who frequently fought with his neighbors about politics, according to a report Sunday from The Washington Post.

Local citizens say Rene Boucher, the 59-year-old man who assaulted Paul, was a socialist who frequently fought with neighbors about health care policies and other liberal issues. Boucher and Paul, a Republican from Kentucky, are on the opposite end of the political spectrum, they told reporters.

Jeff Jones, a registered nurse who worked with Boucher at the Bowling Green Medical Center, described Paul’s attacker’s politics as “liberal.”

“He was active on social media and said some negative things about the Republican agenda,” Jones said of Boucher, a Bowling Green, Ky., citizen who lives in the same gated community as Paul. “I think it was unfortunate that they lived so close together.”

Boucher is a divorced socialist who is “pretty much the opposite of Rand Paul in every way,” Jim Bullington, a former member of the city commission who knows both men well, told reporters Sunday.

A Facebook account Boucher maintained before the attack contains numerous anti-Republican postings.

Boucher wrote “May Robert Mueller fry Trump’s gonads” in a May post referencing the former FBI director’s investigation into possible collusion between President Donald Trump’s campaign and Russian government.

Paul is an ophthalmologist who has practiced in Bowling Green since moving there with his wife in the early 1990s. Boucher, meanwhile, is an anesthesiologist and the inventor of the Therm-a-Vest, a vest designed to help with back pain.

Paul had staff privileges at the hospital where Boucher worked, so Paul and Boucher “must have worked together at some point,” David Ciochetty, a doctor with Interventional Pain Specialists in Bowling Green, told reporters.

Paul’s injuries were far worse than initially reported. He has lung contusions, or bruises, caused by the broken ribs, Doug Stafford, Paul’s chief of staff, said in a statement Sunday. The type of fractures the senator sustained can cause other significant medical problems, including internal bleeding and pneumonia.

“This type of injury is caused by high velocity severe force. It is not clear exactly how soon he will return to work, as the pain is considerable as is the difficulty in getting around, including flying,” Stafford said."

I'd suspect it's the healthcare votes?
But wait...Paul was instrumental in stopping Trump's ACA repeal... right? Be a bit odd for a "liberal" to attack him over that.

He was yard shamed because Jesus mows Boucher's lawn.

Or he could just be an asshole. And if he assaulted a reporter instead of Paul Rand, he too could still run and win a seat in congress.

I'll take that provided it's verified

I've seen a couple of sources stating this.

And if this were a Democrat legislator that got assaulted by a "patriotic" conservative, then this whole deal would somehow be about how mysterious are the ways of God in how He metes out his righteous justice on the unclean, the heathen unbelievers.

Really, I do hope this guy gets what's coming to him, but this knee jerk reaction toward politicizing the incident right off the bat without knowing any of the particulars is too much like deflating a football to one's liking.

Rand only voted "No" because it didn't go far enough in repealing.

Boucher's lawyer gave a statement that said, in part "The unfortunate occurrence of November 3rd has absolutely nothing to do with either’s politics or political agendas. It was a very regrettable dispute between two neighbors over a matter that most people would regard as a trivial."

I'm going with Rand's dog crapping in his yard and it never getting cleaned up.

That makes as much sense as any other reason.

I'm going with the heightened penalties for assaulting a sitting United States Senator and his lawyers hoping they can reduce it to a neighbor vs. neighbor thing instead of a political assault/intimidation thing.

Not that we shouldn't immediately believe what a defense attorney has to say or view it with just a tiny bit of suspicion.

you'd think the guy would just move...

So in this case, we should take the defense attorney with a grain of salt, but when it comes to Trump and Russia, we should buy into his defense wholeheartedly? Did I get that right?

Weirdly enough, that's not the crazy thing.

The crazy thing is that a self-proclaimed Libertarian is utilizing social services (aka the police), which is in opposition of his ideology for a small government. Guess he's not a real Libertarian then, ain't he?

Fuck off. Having police is not "big government:.

Everyone hates that guy.

You are a fucking moron. If everyone hated him, he would not be a senator. Fuck you, so many times. Yup, libertarians are bad, antifa is good. You stupid asswipe.

Liberal hate rears its ugly head once again.

🙂

While I'm happy Rand is alright, I do have to say he is Low T because

Wearing ear protection working in the yard
Having a 60+ year old beat the crap out of you

Paul deserves shame since he never does anything to prevent shame against his opponents

Another fucking moron. I'm so glad I rarely visit this site.

 

[K1052]

Its a vast Soros funded Antifa executed attack through the inter-dimensional portal controlled by the corpse of Lenin to complete the socialist takeover of Bowling Green.

Or it's two assholes in a long and immature fight over lawn care.

Must be that first one.
