not profiling at all. Merely describing the attacker, just as one would estimate height/weight.

Be selfish is the creed of the day. We are close to a depression economically and with ACTUAL unemployment around 20%, no wonder some people with opposite opinions clash. The fabric of society is torn and will stay that way until a vaccine or prevention for CV is found!

"There may be somebody with tomatoes in the audience. So if you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously. Okay? Just knock the hell— I promise you, I will pay for the legal fees. I promise, I promise. It won’t be so much ’cause the courts agree with us too."

He will be a rich man soon. Hopefully his assailant will spend some time in jail.

Or how about "if you see them in a restaurant or at the movies get in their face and tell them your not welcome here"

Someone once said, punch him in the face, I'll pay the legal fees

Wow...just wow.

As far as "not passing any judgment on anybody," methinks most of the post belies the fact...that is exactly what is occurring.



Gee, let's everyone start using our real names and while we're at it...let's add our addresses and phone #'s.

I prefer being Mr. Anonomous because when all the animosity stops in 2020. I don't want to have old scars from this tumultuous time. I want to return to the "good life", the spirit, the good times, the friends, and the Village activities that I remember from about 3 or 4 years ago.
Those were the days my friend

You're not "saying he did", you're just implying it. It would be funny if it wasn't pathetic.

And...it might not have been an attack at all. It has been proven that some people will put up signs and allow people to think they are vandalized or a victim of a terrorist group by putting the hated Swastica on their own doors and sidewalks. Some people even hire people to appear to beat them up. This happened to a very well known Television personality in Chicago. Hate is a very strong emotion. We cannot always trust what people say, sadly. Even those who post a lot on TOTV, like me.

Of course they wouldn't lie, but sometimes it is very difficult to get to the very heart of the matter and find an unbiased source.

And if Iran nuked Ed it would have been bad too

He could of kept driving.
