SR raves :"FFS! What on earth are you talking about? So the policeman who died of his injuries after being struck in the head by a fire extinguisher doesn't count?"

Well as usual SR falls for the story that he most wants to be true and doesn't bother to check its validity. After all, if you want it to be true, then it is.

Here are the facts (here's a link to a definition of fact to help SR... http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fact )...

The initial claim was that Sicknick had died from blunt force trauma from a fire extinguisher. This has been discounted because 1) the corner found no evidence of blunt force trauma
2) Sicknick had spoken to his brother after the events and said he was fine.

Sorry SR but what you want to be true, isn't. Not that that'll worry you.

At the moment it is believed he died from " exposure to a chemical agent, possibly pepper spray or bear spray" but evidence for that is also lacking. There are stories that the man had pre-existing medical conditions.

Since the authorities are 'mum' on all these issues, you can assume you're being played. But then, if you want to be played.....

Dear mhaze,

The full autopsy results are still to be delivered in the
Sicknick case it seems and more than happy to acknowledge there might not have been a fire extinguisher involved in his death.

But you conveniently have failed to address the other injuries to officers I posted.

Hopefully you aren't about to claim a police officer wasn't hit in the head with a fire extinguisher because there is clear evidence of it as well as a prone officer being beaten with a flag pole.

The only way anybody could claim there were no injuries was for them to be able to consider law enforcement less than human.

You made an idiotic claim which has become a bit of a norm for you young fella hasn't it.

Dear mhaze,

In the animal kingdom, mhaze, it is the smartest and the strongest that get to the top of the heap. Donald the dictator is one of them. Otherwise, he would never have become president of the United States.

Donald the dictator is as smart as a monkey, as cunning as a fox and as deceptive as a praying mantis. Ruse and guile are his principal arms . By employing carefully coded pseudo-military signs and language he assembled his gullible troops and sent them to accomplish his wanton criminal misdeeds.

There is nothing particularly original about that. No doubt you are aware of Sun Tsu, the ancient Chinese military strategist (544- 496 BC) and his book “The Art of War” in which he explains how to win a war without fighting. It is a strategy that has been employed on various occasions, not only by military leaders, but also by political leaders as well as leaders of industry, commerce and many other major organisations and professions down the ages.

Charles Manson employed it when he incited his followers to commit a series of murders in 1969. The Los Angeles County district attorney believed that Manson intended to start a race war. He convicted him of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder for the deaths of seven people, including the film actress Sharon Tate. The prosecution contended that, while Manson never directly ordered the murders, his ideology constituted an overt act of conspiracy.

It seems to me that a parallel could be drawn between the responsibility of Charles Manson and that of Donald the dictator in respect of the grave criminal accusations brought against them. Both were instigators of crimes in which they did not participate directly themselves.

I saw a video of that attack on the policeman.
It certainly looked like a fire extinguisher.
It was red and round, not good video but good enough.

Thanks for the article Graham Y.

It seems Sicknick being a Trump supporter was also against a Trump impeachment- but was honored after his death by Democrats and was friendly with Pelosi Communications Advisor- Caroline Behringer.

These are interesting...

CM,

So ....... Democrats tend to be more compassionate than Republicans, even for stricken Republicans - is that's what you're suggesting ?

Have you seen the light ?
