They break up a plot and Biden is too weak...???? This does not equate. So Reagan was weak because he got shot.

Wacka Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 (edited) Since there is basically a blackout on this(nothing on cable or local TV) I am led to believe that the attacker is a Muslim. Remember Rushdie had a fatwa put on him about 30 years ago. If it was a white christian his name would have been plastered all over the place. Notice how the story on the Muslim men murdered in NM ( by a Muslim) has been shut down. Edited August 12, 2022 by Wacka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy1 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I believe they are legal. I’m not sure if the drive to succeed would be different if you risked your life to get here illegally through Mexico. Most just want to keep their head down and work. Although, I'm sure there are some bad apples as there are in most any group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 SALMAN RUSHDIE ON A VENTILATOR, LIKELY TO LOSE AN EYE AFTER ON-STAGE ATTACK: “The news is not good,” the 75-year-old writer’s agent, Andrew Wylie, told The New York Times. “Salman will likely lose one eye; the nerves in his arm were severed; and his liver was stabbed and damaged,” said Wylie. Rushdie, who is still unable to speak, was attacked by a lone man while speaking at an event at the Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua, NY, about 75 miles south of Buffalo.

B-Man Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 There’s been a potentially interesting development in the Salman Rushdie stabbing attack. Rushdie is in the hospital in serious condition and his attacker, Hadi Matar, was due to be arraigned this morning. But it turns out that the New York Post and the Associated Press (at a minimum) were told by officials that they could not be present at the arraignment to cover the news. From the statements being given by authorities in Chautauqua County, no press was to be allowed inside. After the fact, we learned that Matar was being charged with attempted murder in the second degree and assault in the second degree. That doesn’t sound like an unfair set of charges to bring considering the nature of the attack, but the lack of press coverage would cast a shadow of suspicion on the entire affair. Officials did provide an explanation for the decision, but it seems unusual to say the least.

My God is better than your God stuff. sometimes based on small differences. my god is exactly the same but says you shouldn't eat fish on tuesdays. i hate you heathens!! we are advanced enough to understand that thinking is ingrained in human nature. to be tribalistic. yet people in today's society think they can exterminate it by EMPHASIZING our differences. as if there isn't a long history where that thinking is the ideology where hatred has always thrived and the pretenses to the worst things ever committed in humanity. sad to watch it quickly taking over ours under the camouflage of empathy in real time. i don't think unity and understanding will be the end result but i also don't have a sociology degree and need a reason to justify a paycheck either. anti bullying and respecting each other as equals aren't new exciting concepts that require advanced degrees to teach.
