I hope this is a hoax.
« on: October 23, 2008, 12:28:11 PM »
I have posted about violence and vandalism being done to McCain supporters, but this has gotten way out of control.  

Since I don\'t know the specifics yet I won\'t make any accusations towards the Obama crowd.  

SHOCK: MCCAIN VOLUNTEER ATTACKED AND MUTILATED IN PITTSBURGH

\'B\' CARVED INTO 20-YEAR OLD WOMAN\'S FACE... DEVELOPING..

See post below for link.


Like I said, I don\'t know the specifics, but if this was a crime based on someones political preference it is chilling.

More info...

Woman Attacked At ATM, Assailant Carves Letter Into Her Face
Woman Robbed, Attacked With Knife At Bloomfield ATM

POSTED: 4:03 pm EDT October 23, 2008
UPDATED: 4:10 pm EDT October 23, 2008

PITTSBURGH -- A 20-year-old woman who was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield was also maimed by her attacker, police said.

Pittsburgh police spokeswoman Diane Richard tells Channel 4 Action News that the victim was robbed at knifepoint on Wednesday night outside of a Citizens Bank near Liberty Avenue and Pearl Street just before 9 p.m.

Richard said the robber took $60 from the woman, then became angry when he saw a McCain bumper sticker on the victim\'s car. The attacker then punched and kicked the victim, before using the knife to scratch the letter "B" into her face, Richard said.

Richard said the woman refused medical treatment after the assault, which happened outside the view of the bank\'s surveillance cameras.

The robber is described as a dark-skinned black man, 6 feet 4 inches tall, 200 pounds with a medium build, short black hair and brown eyes. The man was wearing dark colored jeans, a black undershirt and black shoes.

Hey Giga, would you mind posting the link to the actual story?  Drudge stories are updated constantly and it may get bumped in a little while.

Already did... this is nuts if it is true.  Drudge does back off of stuff if he is wrong.  See the post below it.  Drudge doesn\'t have a link yet, but I did link a local Pittsburgh news station.

At least your better than Giga. When he\'s wrong he just takes a leave of absence from the forum and comes back with new garbage.

I can see the future.

I just hope this story gets out there and forces the Media and Obama to talk about it.

If the shoe were on the other foot it would be breaking news.

Yeah any kind of violence is sick, but if people are so impassioned about their support of Obama, he should probably put out a message to those people.

It\'s a scary handful of idiots, that\'s for sure.

Wonder if anyone has taken it to Obama supporters in the red states.

I think both candidates need to make statements denouncing this violence.

I agree, violence is not the answer.

I haven\'t looked at this story since I posted it when I first saw it.  Now looking at the pictures of the woman and her actions right after the attack - something isn\'t right.  

She refused medical treatment and said she "would go the hospital in the morning" and the way the B looks on her face... something just doesn\'t add up.  I will be the first on here to say - I think she is lying.  I think she did get mugged, but I have my doubts that the guy became "enraged" over a McCain sticker and carved a B into her face.  Wouldn\'t an O be easier and quicker?  I think she made it up for her 15 minutes of fame.  Just my opinion.

are you bipolar or something?

you\'re screaming racist stuff from the rooftop one second, apologetic the next. you\'re posting your usual 1 in a million stories as if trying to pin it on obama somehow, and then your calling out your own link
