If it was indeed politically motivated, then the nation is moving into dangerous territory as a pattern of violence is being set by the Obama left.
FYI.
Do you think the pres will have a TV statement that says the attackers acted “stupidly”?
Of course it’s politically motivated and the entire bloody and unconscionable beatings of the two young people needs to go ‘viral.’
Can this young woman and her boyfriend identify their attackers?
Why, when it's quite obvious it likely was?
Obama isn’t directly involved in this incident or any others, but the trend is disturbing. Do we want a country in which it’s all right to beat up some people because of their political views? That’s the antithesis of what the Bill of Rights was intended for. When are we going to hear some Democrat, in politics or in the news media, condemn violence directed against conservatives?
Prayers for the victims and that their attackers are brought to justice.
Thugs always resort to thuggery...

Yeah, maybe just a typical New Orleans Welcome Party. Too bad Katrina didn't wipe that place right off the map. Maybe next time we can only hope.
Old saying. Before they dare to kill you, they will beat you, and before they dare to beat you, they will damage your property. The key word is property damage. When your opposition dares to publicly damage your property like scratching your car, slash your car tires, throw a rock at your campaign office, then personal assault and murder is not far behind.
Sorry lady, but this is DEFINITELY "a Democrat problem."
Enough with the New Tone already.
Have you heard about the SRLC Welcoming Committee? We are a coalition of New Orleans individuals and groups (including the Committee to Save Charity Hospital) coming together to welcome the Southern Republican Leadership Committee to New Orleans by letting them and the world know what we think of Republican governor Bobby Jindal’s ruthless assaults on Louisiana healthcare and education.

SEIU connection:
The SRLC Welcoming Committee is a broad coalition of local educators, healthcare workers, students and other Louisianians, as well as members of the Committee to Reopen Charity Hospital, Save UNO, the Iron Rail Collective, Pax Christi, and many others.
***
“Overall, Jindal’s $24.2 billion budget proposal calls for eliminating nearly 3,000 state jobs in the 2010-11 fiscal year that begins July 1.”
***
” In Baton Rouge, an estimated 500 civil servants who now work at Earl K. Long doing everything from nursing to administration will be displaced when that facility closes. “
***
“Similarly, the civil servants who make up a significant chunk of the 2,300-person workforce at the Interim LSU Public Hospital in New Orleans will no longer be state employees…”
***
“…the administration is proposing what officials say are the biggest changes to the state’s mental-health system in generations. The Department of Health and Hospitals is planning to discharge 118 people from state-run psychiatric hospitals… while another 138 institutional beds would be transferred to a private operator…”
***
“Rep. Tom McVea, R-St. Francisville, said the downsizing at East Louisiana State Hospital — a state-run psychiatric hospital in his district — will have lasting effects on his rural community as up to 300 state jobs are lost.”

Part of the pattern.
Which 'gatekeepers'?

Part of the community was “organized”.

Brutal attack on Republican fundraiser and boyfriend may have been politically motivated
I don’t understand the cloak of silence about this story. Gov. Jindal has been silent. If you were an employer of someone who was attacked or even if the person was just volunteering on your behalf, wouldn’t you be out front and insist that the truth be told? Silence about this incident (and now it appears there was more than one) will only make it likely that more attacks will occur.
The only reason for silence that comes to mind is fear for the safety of victims or witnesses or Jindal himself. It’s tough, but courage is necessary to prevent future occurrences. People deserve to know the truth for their own safety.
The people that did this know that it was reported and is being investigated. Keeping it quiet has no investigative benefit, in fact, it inhibits the investigation as potential witnesses may not know what they witnessed and might not know they need to come forward.
I also believe that they even have a hit squad. Remember Lietenant Quarles Harris Jr was whacked for his knowledge of what was in the Obama Dept of state files, and he was a witness in an investigation. No leads in his murder either.
These acts of violence against Republican conservatives will increase, especially against fund raisers and infrastructure, knowing that we will defend ourselves.
This is serious business. The FBI needs to get on it but they likely will not.
The plan is to beat on more and more Republican fund raisers, and supporters, until conservatives defend themselves and martial law will be declared and elections postponed.
