“It couldnt have been some crack addict who is on welfare and loves liberal entitlements now could it?”

Well, it COULD have been, but only if he acted out of justifiable frustration at the ingrained, societal oppression emanating from the hateful, non-inclusive fascism of the Christian right.

3. It’s about 50-50 as far as I can tell

as to whether it was a junkie who was enraged that she didn’t have any cash or jewelry on her and punched her out, or if it was a Freeper.

Time and a police sketch will tell.

> “Is this an attempt by the right wing hate machine to silence one of our own?”

Are you freaking kidding me.
If a young woman jogs in the evening by herself, there will always be unsavory predators lurking about who will want to take advantage of an opportunity.
To imply that this is a right wing hate crime is nuts.

Another raging lunatic leftist mugged by reality.

Maybe not. Her substitute host blamed right wingers. If her muggers were White males with crewcuts, maybe. Sounds like a run-of-the-mill mugging otherwise.

She was in a jogging suit in a pretty expensive neighborhood but didn't have any "mugger money". Hard to know what to make of this. I'm sure she's antagonized a lot of people. Maybe someone lost a family member of dear friend in Iraq or in the WTC and got peeved at her.

I was feeling sorry for her situation until the author jumped the shark and suggested it was a right wing hate machine attacking "one of our own". Just plain stupid. Criminal assaults happen everyday. The criminals don't stop to interview the victim to see if political persuasion affects eligibility for the attack. A female in a jogging suit is an easy target. I hope she selects a safe place to jog in the future.

Didn't this just happen in Asia?

China, Singapore, Thailand, Burma, Indonesia, Vietnam?

Maybe not.

Filth is called filth there.

And dealt with accordingly.

Hear, hear- I agree JaxScuds!

Any comments referring to in a negative way to the victim's appearance, etc. are unseemly, and can be used to defame the whole Freeper community.

". . . wearing a jogging suit and had neither a purse nor jewelry, . . . does not appear to me to be a standard grab the money and run mugging."

Don't men get mugged? Surely they don't carry purses. My work-out pants have pockets. Are all neck chains visible from afar?
