Female McCain Supporter Attacked in New York
by James Buchanan
Just a few days ago, a news article reported a little White girl was called “racist” for wearing a Palin T-shirt to school. There was no word as to whether Blacks were being banned from wearing Obama T-shirts. Most likely a riot would result if a public school attempted to do that.
Now a story has emerged about a woman being assaulted for wearing a McCain button. A news article reports “Politico’s Ben Smith got confirmation from the Manhattan DA’s office about an incident last month where a female McCain supporter was assaulted at Lexington Avenue and 51st Street. According to conservative blog The Silent Majority, a man–without provocation–grabbed the woman’s McCain sign, ripped it up, and hit her with it, bruising her face. The victim followed him into the 6 train subway station and found police officers on the platform; she added that he was only arrested after she showed the cops her bruised face. The assailant allegedly said, ‘I don’t know why I did this. It’s just those signs, and this election, it has me so upset.’ Smith reports that the man, Bernard Feuerman, was charged with second degree assault and has a January 23 court date.” (more…)
