Doh. Forgot Faux. What is their narrative so far? Or repeating Kari Lake and this is a Jessie Smollet incident. Yup Paul beat himself with the hammer

Nothing stolen, no crazy rambling, no drugs found.

Just a MAGAt doing MAGAt stuff.

Well...he's kind of right. At this time, there's no confirmed motive...and crime is rampant in SF. It was bad 20 years ago when I worked in the Bay area...from what I read and hear, it's gotten MUCH worse.

(however, like most here, I suspect it this was a politically motivated attack, not some random thing)

Exactly. I don't have any idea of the motivation. Jumping to the conclusion that it was politically motivated is just stupid.

I do hope Paul fully recovers without much pain and discomfort. He must be a tough old bird to survive a beating with a hammer at his age.

Glad your crystal ball is working. Maybe you should call the San Francisco Police and fill them in with the details of your vast knowledge.


Define MAGAt.
I’m keeping quiet like I do on all these attacks.
This one does appear mighty suspicious and likely a right wing media follower. However I could be wrong.

The Rubio "canvasser" story still has something to it. He is a known white supremacist and didn't tell police the beating was politically related until after the initial tweets from Rubio indicated it was. I'm guessing someone objected to his actions and that's why he caught the beat down.

Hard to compare that to what happened in the home of a super high profile politician with a hammer.
The police report was done the day prior to Rubio's tweet -- the details are in the report and you can visit Rubio's tweet feed to verify the timeline. He got reamed by animals and then actual, real animals simply for being Republican. Read the report, it's all there in that link I shared.

EDIT: You are correct, I got the dates wrong. I'm leaving the above since I'm human and can be wrong, it's all good. Still, that's a document done under penalty of perjury and likely to be accurate (IMO.)

I would think anyone attacking for political reasons would attack the politician instead of her husband.

They could be a right winger, but I wouldn't assume that based on the scant facts we have so far. Even if he were a conservative or Republican, that doesn't mean that is the reason behind the attack.

I guess we will find out hopefully the facts soon enough.

Who knows, this is my last post until more facts.

This part is true. If he were anyone else they would have released it the same day.

The only reason there were any repercussions (as minor as they were) at all is because Fox News didn't allow it to be swept under the rug.
Hmmm, just a couple of minutes ago you claimed you don’t watch Fox.

No I didn't. I said I didn't see anything about Trumps Rally that you brought up.

You said this:


Gee, that’s similar to what trump said at his rally in Texas, did you get it there or from the Fox parrots?

And in response I said this:


I didn't watch any rally in Texas nor did I see anything about it on Fox...

Swing and a miss...


I quoted the conversation because I am Evil and not to be trusted.

Why is it the assumption that this POS was politically motivated at all?

Maybe they (politicians) need to fix the crime problem, mental illness problem, drug problem and the homeless problem in San Francisco.

World hunger and world peace too.

So you’re sticking with pure coincidence...okay :rolleyes:


The facts are the facts. What can I say? I have no reason to lie about it.

Take it or leave it as you want.


So you won't acknowledge that you were wrong about saying that I stated I don't watch Fox?

Yes, I do. And I still believe it wasn’t a coincidence. You are aware that trump stole MAGA from Reagan right?

Looking like this was politically motivated. Fuck me man, people need to stop being stupid. Authorities are to release more details momentarily.
