The president sets the tone for the nation...like a tribal leader sets the tone for the village. Soon the whole country will speak and act just like Trump. Sad.

I have been trying to tell folks the same thing but they just seem brain dead & won't accept the obvious ............

Does it strike anyone as strange that we look about for some individual stories that fit a certain narrative? Left or right, this or that, we single out what fits.
This is a heartbreaking story, and it should never have happened. Just like the four people beating a tied-up mentally disabled teenager.

I suspect her attack had nothing to do with Trump.

According to witnesses she had run up to a bunch of guys and claimed that the old man attempted to kidnap her child. Laughable scenario for an old man to attempt a daylight kidnapping with the mom right next to the child. In any case, this still doesn't fit the narrative that so many in this thread have that this has to do with Trump. So they're ignoring it. This is evidenced by the fact that this account was even relayed in the very first post's linked article.

Yea, at 91, the fact that Rodolfo, is still walking is impressive, I hope he can recover.
I hope they catch the woman, crimes against the elderly cannot be tolerated.

Psst...Trump has nothing to do with this attack. Such attacks have been happening long before Trump came along.

Trump has to be the only explanation. He must also be skilled at time travelling because that must explain why I've been hearing that for decades and even saw someone 25 years ago get their ass kicked while getting called a spic and being told to go back to Mexico. It must have been Trump all along, that devious man!

You are right, everyone needs to be punished for their crimes.

Unfortunately, the focus of these events is often not the human suffering factor, its the "how can I spin this for my own political expediency" factor....the person gets lost in the constant back and forth of ideology battles unless that person/persons can be used as an effective human interest political prop.


"Oh, look what that mean 'ol XYZ party did to this poor defenseless ( insert victim of choice)...see how much that party hates America/human values,( pick virtue of choice). "

Assault is a real crime, but when someone assaults a child or an elderly person incapable of defending themselves,
I think that should be taken into consideration.

How many elderly in some areas of the country are too afraid to even leave their homes? Why don't we post threads about that every day? Why single our certain incidents? After a few minutes...why didn't we discuss these?

I suspect, because some truths, we would rather just not talk about.
predators prey on the weak!
We have a very small number sociopaths in out society, but they cause a very disproportionate amount of harm and fear.
I am not sure how to fix that other than removing those who refuse to play by the rules.

For the same reason people post threads about some illegal committing a crime, even though citizens commit the same crimes, to report the story for information, opinion, and discussion.

That is absolutely horrific.

Something that bugs me about the article however is the "concrete block" part. This just doesn't seem possible. Someone simply dropping a concrete block on someone's head would be enough to cave in their skull, let alone someone forcefully attacking someone with one.

I think they must be referring to a brick sized landscape block, Not a concrete 8 inch or 12 inch block. The concrete blocks are hard to throw at 60 pounds per each.

Interesting that CNN chose this story to put out. Certainly, there are many people assaulted everyday. But they chose this one. The poor Mexican coming to visit family, attacked by awful Americans with their hate, caused by Trump, no doubt. Must. Get. Rid. Of. Trump! Desired effect achieved.
