Sergeant Melissa Ruch of the West Penn Township Police Department is recovering from her injuries this morning after she was reportedly attacked by a motorist after she stopped to assist a disabled vehicle.

Apparently, this thug first slashed Sergeant Ruch’s shirt and then threw her over a guardrail during the attack:

Sergeant Ruch was then airlifted to the hospital:

A PennSTAR helicopter landed on a field at the intersection of SR309 and SR895 to transport officer Ruch to Lehigh Valley at Cedar Crest.

More from WNEP:

“Her shirt is like sliced from–we don’t know what it’s sliced yet from,” said Trooper David Boehm. “The person that we’re looking for is a Hispanic male, 6’2″ to 6’4″, 240 to 260 pounds. He was wearing a black t-shirt and blue jeans, the kind that go way down below your knees and possibly in a dark colored Nissan Maxima.”

As of this morning, the manhunt continues:

“He’ll have a hard time standing up when they catch him.”

Not if they send another soccer mom to get him.

Oh come now. Blacks and whites can live in peace and harmony just fine.

It’s just that neither of us can live with those who have sold their souls to the devil.

When they catch this lowlife his ‘permanent record’ needs to be notated and any ‘benefits’ he receives needs to be cut by 5% ...forever.

That's food stamps, welfare, disability, SSI, whatever the lowlife ‘qualifies’ for. Next time he's caught committing a crime there's another 15% 'forever' cut...

Lowlifes lack honor but they understand money...

A woman cop alone without a male partner?

She could have easily died.

But political correctness rules police departments far more than a concern for the lives of their officers.

‘Nuff said.

There are times when the presence of a spiffy uniform doesn't protect you. This is one of them.

The result would have been the same if this female cop put on a snazzy football uniform and got into the line as a guard - even if her uniform was spiffier than the guy knuckled down across the line from her. He would crush her despite her "right" to be there.

The same is true of the military as well.

Most state benefits are curtailed or eliminated with a felony or certain misdemeanor conviction.

Cloward-Piven-Alinsky-Marx in action

As we piss and moan about every distraction they throw out CPAM University rolls on...

From https://www.barackobama.com/news/training-professional-fellowship-recap/

The Training Management track of the OFA Professional Fellowship just graduated 17 professional fellows ready to be leaders in empowering their communities.

With four weeks of online webinars under their belts, these professional fellows headed to OFA headquarters in Chicago to put it all into practice. Under the guidance of OFA's training staff, the fellows helped prepare for and execute the Train-the-Trainer workshop, an annual summit that gives OFA volunteer leaders the skills they need to develop their own trainings at the local level.

Sounds pretty benign. So click on the OFA Professional Fellowship link. The tempo gets a little upbeat from this point on.

...We live, breathe, and dream about organizing and we want to train people who share our passion. We are looking for experienced grassroots or digital organizers who are ready to take their skills to the next level to advance their career—and the progressive movement. Ideal applicants are excited about learning and eager to engage with a national community of organizers.

Selected applicants will be invited to participate in an interview and complete an assessment test. Accepted candidates will receive an offer letter and a welcome packet at least two weeks prior to the official start of the program.

We believe in creativity! If you wish to show your commitment, skills, and aptitude through visuals, or video, or another type of project, please complete this written application and share additional materials by e-mailing Fellows@BarackObama.com.

The left never sleeps. They don't even rest...

With any luck they will catch the guy and then release him in Kentucky and tell him to throw Judges off bridges.

Any felony committed by a minor should reduce government benefits - of all types - given to 'parents'... until the thug-in-making turns 18... When the thug's an adult his criminal activity cuts his benefits...permanently.

It's time to give up white guilt... it's a total waste of time, energy and resources. AND it's NOT do any good.

You’re right.

But the problem here is not the cop-chick.

The problem is the violent freak that attacked her.
