I don’t think that Mrs. Paul is a doctor.

[Brooklyn Attitude]

“It was a deliberate, blindside attack. The impact left Rand with six broken ribs, three displaced, pleural effusion and now pneumonia.”

How do these severe injuries results in just a misdemenor assault charge? Its outrageous.

[polymuser]

“I’m sure the hate-Paul wing of FR is yukking it up though.”

Wow. No. Political battle is one thing. Physical harm is totally another. Hate? No. Strong disagreement? Yes. Again, wow.

"Correct. It’s not an uncommon injury for QBs who have been tackled from behind while looking down field for an open receiver."

Yes, this is why QB's wear rib protectors.

Have you noticed that all the calls for "gun control" are from democrats?

And yet, they call us the 'violent ones' !!

Liberals want to take away your guns because they want to do things to you that they can't do if you are armed.

[Sopater]

Now it seems you need a rib protector if you’re a Republican Senator who wishes to cut his grass.

[Kickass Conservative]

Seriously? I tripped over my Dog and hit the floor like a sack of potatoes.

I ended up with two bruised Ribs and had a hairline Fracture in another. I also broke a Finger for good measure.

Senator Paul is not a big guy by a longshot, he is 5’8” and probably weighs 150 while I am 6’3” and weigh 245.

He was blindsided, just like the Victims of the Feral Animal Knockout Game. Some of those Victims die from their injuries.

I hope Senator Paul Sues that Moron into Bankruptcy.

[MayflowerMadam]

Agree 100%. An admirable principled person.

Why is his attacker not doing time. If he had attacked someone who’s not a conservative politician, he wouldn’t be getting off so easy. The attack was brutal. I’ve had one broken rib and it was beyond miserable.

[snooter55]

Your sensible, well thought out, adult statement will cause Mariners head to explode should he read it ! LOL !! Oh, and I agree with you.

Snoot ;o)

[entropy12]

I don’t think we have seen the final outcome of that attack on Rand Paul. There will be a very large civil suit & possibly criminal charges.

[Deplorable American1776]

The neighbor attacked the wrong Kentucky Senator. The moron should have attacked Mitch...

[bert]

But first there will be jail for assault on a US Senator.
