Soldier beat up

Postby heyjt » Fri Sep 01, 2006 11:26 am

My wife and I saw the same news report on TV after it happened, and we both thought psy-ops.<br> The "baby killer" statement gave it away, like they were told to say it.<br> WE had better keep our eyes peeled to see if this starts happening elsewhere in the nation as part of a coordinated plan leading up to the November election...<br><br> --By the way, there appeared to be no witnesses... <p></p><i></i>

Who benefits most?<br><br>The companies that would be selling beefed-up but neccessary gear to Law Enforcement so they can deal with these rabid anti-war, treehugging, soldier-beating dissidents..<br><br>Two points though to obfuscate things further:<br><br>Point 1: I know plenty of people angry enough about the wat they just might take a shot at someone in the right(more like wrong) time and place. <br><br>Some people are just plain PISSED.<br><br>Point 2: Unless the group of attackers are experienced specifically with working together to overpower individuals, it's a well-known fact that a properly trained fighter has a better chance of dealing with a larger group of attackers than a small one. So 3-4 attackers are easier to mitigat/neutralize than 2-3, etc.<br><br>No witnesses, eh?<br><br>hmm.<br> <p>____________________<br>Some are born to sweet delight, some are born to endless night.</p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=etinarcadiaego@rigorousintuition>et in Arcadia ego</A>  <IMG HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=10 SRC="http://www.sickle666.com/images/Arcadia.jpg" BORDER=0> at: 9/1/06 9:37 am<br></i>

what if

Postby steve vegas » Sun Sep 03, 2006 10:03 am

the soldier got beat up by a girl, or was shaken down for a gambling debt, or maybe got roughed up by a pimp for failing to pay for services rendered, I'm guessing it's likely that the whole "baby killer" thing could just be a b.s. dog ate my homework type thing. I do like Hugh's analysis though... <p></p><i></i>

Steve Vegas -- BING BING BING

Postby maggrwaggr » Sun Sep 03, 2006 10:05 pm

Exactly. The guy probably got beat up by his girlfriend because he stole her dope or something, but he's gotta go to the ER because he's all beat up, so he makes up a story.<br><br>There were no witnesses after all. Why believe his story? There's really no reason to, especially since the idea of beating up someone "for peace" is pretty fucking stupid and just doesn't happen in the real world. <p></p><i></i>

Well, I gotta say, that's a good possibility. <p></p><i></i>
