Man Shouting ‘Anti-Everything Slurs’ Kills 2 on Public Transportation in Portland, Police Say
KTLA ^ | 5/27/17

Posted on 05/27/2017 12:03:13 PM PDT by Timpanagos1

A man fatally stabbed two people and injured a third on a commuter train in Oregon’s largest city Friday as people confronted him for “yelling a gamut of anti-Muslim and anti-everything slurs,” a Portland police spokesman said.

Jeremy Joseph Christian, 35, was on a Metropolitan Area Express (MAX) light-rail train in Portland late Friday afternoon when he started yelling what “would best be characterized as hate speech toward a variety of ethnicities and religions,” police said in news release.

Christian may have directed slurs at two young women who witnesses described as Muslim, one of whom was wearing a hijab, Portland police Sgt. Pete Simpson told CNN.

As two men tried to calm him down, Christian stabbed them and one other man, police said.

“If he defended himself, would it be murder?”

That will be answered by a Portland jury.

It was a hypothetical question, not to a jury, but to you.☺

Why would you evade the question?

What I mean is, did these three liberals PLAN to meet JJC and do something to him only to realize they’d brought the wrong tools.

He is a lunatic who begged for chaos and conflict in his every written word.

Below is just a hypothetical question. In the hypothetical, these are the facts.☺

>>If a male Trump supporter was shouting anti Obama stuff at 2 female leftist/anarchist and 2 or 3 other male leftist decided to, “Intervene” and attempt to physically stop him or started assaulting the Trump supporter.<<

The question is: If he defended himself, would it be murder?

Go ahead, it's OK to answer.☺

NBC and BBC are already blaming Trump for the attack.

You know what I really think? This was an OFA ‘get in their faces’ move that zero demanded without preparing his acolytes.

REAL BAD recruiting results.

Now THAT is a story!

A Bernie-bot goes apeshit and kills two guys.

I stand by my original assessment. The guy was insane.

He supported Bernie.

QED

It also reminisces of The Stand’s Randall Flagg who could not see the mind and hearts of the insane - like Tom Cullen - and made decisions that destroyed him due to his blindness.

Oh there you are! Welcome back...Lemme clarify my hypothetical question you've been evading for hours now.

>>If a male Trump supporter was shouting anti Hillary at 2 female leftist/anarchist and 2 or 3 other male leftist decided to, “Intervene” and attempt to physically stop him by assaulting the Trump supporter.<<

The question is: If he defended himself, would it be murder?

Why are you having issues with this question?

They didn’t back out after the Muslim girls escaped.

Portland PD is Seth Riching this evidence, what we know now is all we’ll ever know.

Tell me, Mr. T, what physical position would the 3 males have to be in to not be able to avoid throat slashings? Relative to the Lunatic.

“The question is: If he defended himself, would it be murder?”

If it were self defense, there would unlikely be a murder conviction.

I have no idea.

However, at some point, we may see the train’s security video and we will have a clearer picture of the incident.

Oh, certainly you don’t mean a 5-man team descended on what they crazily thought was a Trump supporter to bait him with two ‘muslim’ women, with three sweet-looking Antifa boys without any sort of weapons? That would be absurd.

It would be like Crisis Actors or something.

If he killed muslims, it wouldn’t bother me at all. We re at war with them.

Btw, I mentioned that hours ago, only because of the wording in the first sentences on an earlier story, which stated 2 people, "Intervened". No one knows what "Intervened" means and leave it to the screw worms in the press to print that leftist spin.

Did the 3 males intervene by saying, "Please don't say those things, that's not who we are!"

Or did they intervene by jumping on the alleged suspect?

Btw, as I mentioned here or maybe another thread, this guy could very well have stabbed people who were innocently attempting to calm this guy. It certainly would not be the first time for that. Maybe there will be video...
