wow..looking at the pics its even more confusing. the attacker does not look like a thug(though she is one).

I would say she was on drugs and or has an anger problem( uh, kind of obvious.)

Could be random jealousy. The victim was seen as attractive, well-dressed, stylish and the attacker just the opposite.

Looks like an Occupy Wall Street type if you aks me.

I’ll make this observation...but you have to realize...I spent sixteen years living in Germany and only returned to the US in 2010. I currently live and work in the DC region.

I’ve come back to find myself a stranger in a strange land. In the Arlington area where I live....it’s fair to say it’s safe. If I cross the river into DC? You run into crime and nuts.

Last year, I spent an entire Saturday walking around DC. There are probably 3k homeless folks that you might notice on any given day. I’d say a hundred of them are dangerous. I had some nut down by a museum who started yelling and screaming at me when I came within six feet of her. Down by the Navy memorial....I stood and watched some other homeless person yelling at passers-by. Cops? They do nothing.

I spent a day in New York City last year....and noted the same problems. Nuts everywhere, and on the verge of physical aggression. The cops do nothing, until it’s too late.

There’s probably several hundred thousand Americans who ought to be locked up....for the safety of everyone else. The authorities? They do nothing....until it’s too late.

I noticed a week ago that New York City is talking of cleaning up the subway areas of the nuts. They say they apprehend, and force a mental test onto the people. I’m waiting to see if they really have the guts.

There’s a problem here, but no one cares much.

I would say she is psychotic and off her meds.......happens all the time. They start to feel normal and decide they don't need their medication any more so they stop taking it.

Have a friend whose brother was schizophrenic and the same thing would happen to him. He even drove 280 miles and showed up at my door once claiming he had an appointment with the French embassy in downtown detroit the next morning and needed to stay at my apartment that night. That was weird......

I feel sorry for the girl and especially for her family.......

Crazy person, sometimes they do stuff like that.

I have yet to run into a “lib” that didn’t have an anger problem. No drugs required.
