You’re thinking of Pasquale Fazulli.

This is Maxine Walters’s fault. She is encouraging people to attack Trump supporters.

I was already attacked by someone. Fortunately, Starbux has turned “my” local Starbux into a giraffe reserve with tables and chairs that are 5 feet tall and a big dance floor, so I don’t think I’ll be going there anymore.

Because it would be so out-of-character for us. Be proud that we don’t do random, pointless attacks.

“A cheap made in Pakistan knife?”

I picked up a nice pig-sticker from a local Pakistani smitty, and the workmanship was impressive. The old fellow knew how to hammer, sand and quench steel.

Of less importance, but of interest to me.

Why does the headline say”switchblade” instead of knife?

If it had been another kind of knife would that have made the headline?

Kitchen knife attack
Pocket knife attack
Fish fillet knife attack
Swiss Army knife attack

Should we think that a switch blade makes a bigger hole?

He never had a chance.

That would be Castroville. Not enough fertile fields in Castro Valley.

Knife laws are state-by-state. In California, you have to carry knives openly, no concealed ones, and switchblades are illegal.

Solution: Move to Ohio.

Another solution: Follow the Constitution. It’s a very nice document.

Also Obama’s fault. He got in his face, after all.

“Another solution: Follow the Constitution. It’s a very nice document.”

The founders were flawed. As opposed to Booker, who’s perfect in every way. So let’s have Booker write a new constitution, and just nod our heads to whatever he says, so we won’t be racists like the founders.
