    I was "attacked" the other day when a fellow motorist gave me the evil eye for taking her preferred parking spot in a mostly vacant lot. Sticks and stones may break my bones but names deflate my fragile ego. Rand Paul is a twerp.


    After she looked at you like that, I bet you were thanking god you were still alive.


    you could have been turned to stone

    Her eyes were rivers of ice which froze the vehicle solid, it fragmented as soon as the parking attendant inspected the reg a second time. I can embellish the story further once the cameras are rolling, we need more studs like Ayn Peter to bravely confront the tyranny of others having a different opinion. The only real "liberty" is that which I can manipulate to my advantage.

    I probably judge you more for browsing the Sun than Rand Paul being upset about a mob.

    except I am not a reader of that rag, and found the link to emphasize how ridiculous it all is.


    I think that must have went over your head and the people who liked your post,that obviously did not get my point either.

    I was using the sun and its ridiculous things like "crazed mob" to only enforce my point of how stupid rand is, and the media are.
    I hope that clarifies things.

    A proper paper or news site would be ridiculing Rand for his over the top comments

    Undecided, swing and Republican voters give a flying f, anything to sway them towards the elephant.

    If the roles were reversed would the same posters here be as forgiving?

    Imagine kamala Harris having to wade through a mob of angry Trump supporters in MAGA hats. The photos would be front page news for days, all the outcry at the racism and white supremacy blah blah blah.....

    Given the previous incident of political violence he was sujected to left him hospitalised, suffering six broken ribs as described more fully in his book "Socialism", the fear of such violence to him and his familiy is perfectly understandable in light of the current progressive mobs running amok.

    Not to mention him being shot at during a republican baseball practise game. People have selective memories

    except he was not shot here, nor assaulted, he was shouted at.
    Then he called this horrific, and said the police saved his life.

    Thankfully US Senator Rand Paul is recovering today, after some people shouted at him.

    He needed the police as people shouted at him, and he thanked the police for "saving his life" as he was nearly shouted to death.

    This is very serious, even the sun has decided this is hugely important

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/12521614/mob-donald-trump-protesters-attack-republican-senator-rand-paul/

    What? if the police werent there he would have been beaten to a pulp or killed by the mob, the police had to physically block someone trying to get to him

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    I'm not sure if you've ever had something bad happen to you like an assault, but it makes future aggression from people quite a bit more frightening.

    Are you saying that harassing and yelling at people in the street is fine?

    I am saying it was not horrific.The crowd did not tear gas him, assault him, shoot him, torture him....they shouted.

    The notion of the cops saved his life is beyond over exaggeration.


    What was horrific was in his state breonna being shot in her own home.
    The cops did not save her life....they took her life.

    having seen the videos and the level of hate in the mob, i think the OP is being disingenuous , it was more than mere shouting.
    the police surrounding Rand Paul were struck and they attempted to pull on of them into the crowd.



    One can see the absolute morons in this mob - say her name they screamed at the senator who actually wrote the bill to end "no knock raids" called the "Justice for Breonna Taylor Act" . her actual fcukin name.



    If only more politicians were like Rand Paul and his dad the world would be a better place.



    Does the OP agree with the actions of these clowns?

    Nobody should be screaming in anyones face, but ramping up the shock value doesn't do anyone any favours either. I'm not a fan of being shouted at either, so I empathise. I'm sure I'd be frightened too.

    Boiling point has been reached though, and it's de-escalation that's needed, not hyperbole.

    Wait until they shout at a woman or a member of an ethnic minority.

    The proverbial will hit the fan then.

    We'll all have to kneel and knock down a few statues when that happens.

    spot on....and Rand making claims like horrific, and acting like he survived hell etc wont endear him to people already unhappy and will inflame the situation more, due to him playing up the victim part in to overdrive



    he comes across as a clown
