All tactics, hate and racism is fair game for one party, and just the assumption of racism is enought to convict the other!
I don't believe you. I think this didn't happen at all the way you describe it. Further, your reputation here is such that I doubt very many others will believe it either.

What's so trolling about a lady getting beat up? This is serious and not something to laugh at by saying this thread is trolling.

What happened to that women was definitely wrong, but I'm still not seeing where the man claims to be an Obama supporter or even a Democrat. As far as we know, the man's a part of the large percentage of Americans who don't vote/don't care and are disgruntled by the amount of politics being shoved down everyone's throat this year.

Ok, Not trolling? How about stupid?

Is that a little more precise?

Each side has incidents like this ...it means absolutely nothing.


It most assuredly does NOT mean ALL Democrats are this or ALL Republicans are that!



Personally these vague unsubstantiated (or substantiated) "individual incident" posts from EITHER side are stupid and should be deleted immediately.


I personally know a Republican who is racist and I DO NOT think ALL Republicans are racist!

By the way, how did this woman's story grow from being hit on the head and having a pink mark, to having her glasses "almost" broken and her wrist cut in addition?

I'd bet dollars to donuts the entire thing is a sham and never happened, period. I mean it's just getting silly now. What next? She also has a hip fracture, is suffering post traumatic stress syndrome and may have a concussion? Does this woman even exist? All I've seen so far is a supposed complaint...well, not the actual complaint, but page 1 of a complaint, with identifying information blacked out. And a bunch of hearsay about how "some" woman "said" someone assaulted her in New York.

I mean imagine that.

You're dramatizing a situation that was proven false, secondly you are starting a second thread when one already existed (yours with ridiculous claims attached).

Read the sticky. Vote for whoever you want but don't be a part of the blatant lies from either side. Smear-mongering is pretty pathetic.
