A 43-year-old house painter so badly brain damaged that he can’t speak has been awarded $58 million by a jury after a beating at a bar left him with half his skull permanently bashed in.

Chaj was attacked at a mid-Wilshire bar after trying to intercede in an attack by a bartender and security guard on two relatives who were with him.

Lawyers said an unlicensed, untrained security guard beat Chaj with a baton, kicked him in the head eight times and smashed his skull against pavement four times.

“This guy was an illegal immigrant, the bouncer, who has disappeared (back to Mexico?), was probably illegal. The security company probably has zero money (one source on the net says 400k annual revenue, before paying employees and expenses). Will this guy pay for his medical expenses? (no). Will he pay for court costs? (no).”

From the sound of this article this was done to an immigrant by immigrants. If I read it correctly that is.

apparently you don’t need to defend yourself with a firearm until you actually look like that...according to prosecuting attorney de la Rionda.

An armed society is a polite society.

George Zimmerman does not look like this.

Because Zimmerman had a gun and was willing to use it.

That was the old American culture. This is the new culture, the culture of Barra Latina. You know, the one that the GOPe and the Democrats are eager to give amnesty to.

You haven't seen anything yet. Decapitation is the standard MO among the "paisanos" back home.
