To the media, politically motivated attacks are perfectly acceptable, as long as they are directed against conservatives.
I think it was politically motivated. However, it doesn’t matter. An attack from behind on a defenseless person is a crime. Throw the bum in jail.
It’s open season on any real conservative or real independent Maverick. And that includes violence. Don’t forget we’ve had a sniper shooting down conservative Republicans at a sporting event. They will do anything to flood this country with their precious illegal immigrants that’s the bottom line.
...and the media cannot figure out a motive. They are at a loss.
Thank you captain freaking obvious !
To crush a man from behind with enough force to virtually flay his chest is deadly intent
I cant believe that psycho is on the street
And we all know that if a Conservative neighbor did this to a Democrat legislator there would be no end to the coverage and the long insinuation that Trump is inciting his base and dividing America.
Moreover, the Left has been on a violent rampage, with simulated beheadings, standing over a dead body with a Trump toe tag, attempting to assassinate Republican legislators at a softball game. The Left is out. of. control. and the corrupt MSM are covering for them in tacit approval.
Was this guy drug tested at the time?
Let’s see...Steve Scalise, Rand Paul, the Trump supporters in San Jose, Berkeley and anywhere across the country where the Antifa scum appear, Mandalay Bay, Sutherland Springs....
I’d say there’s a violent terrorist war going on against Conservatives and especially Christian Conservatives.
Maybe Bob Mueller would like to look into that.
Nah, he’s too busy trying to frame somebody for something he dredged up outta the past so he can squeeze them into saying something bad about the Big Guy.
I don’t much care what the MSM is doing, I want to know why Federal agents have not arrested this guy for Federal crimes.
Considering the low bond and lightness of charges to Dr. Boucher, a pain management specialist, one has to wonder who, and how many of the courthouse crew, go to him for their meds.
Democrat dirty tricks 4 weeks before the election and stupid GOPe people like McCain are buying into it.
He should have been arrested on federal charges from the git-go and the burden of proof put on him to make a convincing argument that his attack was not politically motivated. And his medical license should be suspended yesterday.
He must be too old and too establishment to join Antifa.
Boucher should be charged with attempted murder.
Forget the press. They’re useless partisans for the Rats and the left. Has that charge been upgraded? “More concerned with Justice here.
Paul was wearing earplugs at the time.
This attack could have killed him.
Did Rand know the neighbors wife....and how well did he know her?
Any charge less than attempted murder when the victim gets 6 broken ribs and a plural effusion and is a senior citizen, regardless of position as a senator, is wrong.
Because the assailant knew the victim was a sitting senator the “special circumstances clause” such as a hate crime should come into play especially since we now know this was a politically motivated attack.
The charge should be attempted murder with hate crime attached.
