The same people who pay for the fatties that overeat (me) and don’t exercise, and the those that go out seeking unprotected sex that transmits STDs like aids and monkeypox, and the drug and alcohol abusers that damage their livers and such.
No, this thread is about Paul Pelosi being attacked in his home by a lunatic with a hammer. Charges that the lunatic has confessed to and has further admitted the attack was politically motivated.
I envy your naïveté if that's your only question about this high profile political violence incident.
My stupid brain is still trying to understand who answered the door. Any chance you can lower yourself down to my level and give me an update?
Read the court document: Read the document that reveals new details about the Pelosi attack Pelosi answered the door before the guy hit him in the head with the hammer.
Not a NYT subscriber, can’t read. So I’ll ask, if he answered the door, why did he walk back to the guy with a hammer? Was he already beaten up and incoherent?
You could have done what I did and googled your question for the answer. I found this ~ NBC News PULLS bombshell report that claimed Paul Pelosi did NOT tell cops he was in danger | Daily Mail Online "When Officers Kolby Wilmes and Kyle Cagney responded to the residence and rang the doorbell, DePape reportedly told Pelosi not to open the door, but Pelosi did anyway using his left hand. "Pelosi and DePape stood in the dimly lit foyer and faced the officers as Pelosi calmly greeted them, according to the police report. "When one of the officers asked the men what was going on, DePape said, 'everything's good' and pulled his hands toward his body. When an officer turned on his flashlight, DePape could be seen holding the bottom handle of the hammer with one hand and Pelosi's right arm with the other. Pelosi's right hand was also on the handle of the hammer. "When an officer ordered for the men to 'drop the hammer,' DePape raised the hammer and said, 'um, nope' as he tried to pull it away from Pelosi who exclaimed 'hey, hey!'"
Sigh...yes, he did as outlined in the court documents. At least try to pretend that any of this isn't in bad faith... I'll try to explain again. Pelosi was fighting with the guy over his hammer near the door. While he was fighting over the hammer with his right hand, the police came to the door. He managed to use his left hand to open the door. At this point, the intruder turned to the police while still holding the hammer (while Pelosi's right hand remained on the hammer as well). The police turned on their flashlight, noticed the hammer, told both of them to drop the hammer, the intruder answered "Um, nope," lifted the hammer over his head and lunged at Pelosi, striking him in the head with the hammer.
Walk back to the guy. And no, he wasn't beaten up and incoherent at this point. Again, read the court documents...
Also all these “theories” could be put to bed with the footage from the cops body cams. That’s too easy I guess.
I doubt that will happen. According to the police report linked earlier up thread, Paul Pelosi was wearing boxers and a pajama top. I doubt the authorities in charge of the investigation will subject Mr Pelosi to the indignity of having that recording released. The Statement of Fact from the report reveals what the responding officers from SFPD observed when they came to the front door of the Pelosi's home. ________________ "Shortly after the initial call, Officers Kolby Wilmes and Kyle Cagney responded to the residence. When Off. Wilmes rang the doorbell, Defendant directed Mr.Pelosi not to open the door. But Mr.Pelosi opened the door with his left hand. As the door opened, the two men stood in the dimly lit foyer facing the officers. Mr.Pelosi nervously but calmly greeted them. When the officer asked what was going on, Defendant smiled and said, everything's good and pulled his hands toward his body. When an officer turned on his flashlight, Defendant could be seen holding the bottom handle of the hammer with one hand and Mr. Pelosi's right arm with the other. Mr.Pelosi had his hand on the top of the handle near the hammer itself. One officer ordered, Drop the hammer! At the same time, Defendant raised the hammer and said, um, nope." Defendant tried to pull the hammer away from Mr.Pelosi, which twisted Mr.Pelosi's arm back. Simultaneously, Mr.Pelosi pleaded, hey, hey, hey. The officer asked again, "what is going on here?" But Mr.Pelosi could not maintain his grip on the hammer . A second later, Defendant wrenched the hammer away from Mr.Pelosi, immediately stepped back, and lunged at Mr. Pelosi, striking Mr. Pelosi in the head at full force with the hammer, which knocked Mr. Pelosi unconscious The officers rushed into the house, tackled Defendant, and disarmed him. Mr. Pelosi remained unresponsive for about three minutes, waking up in a pool of his own blood." _________________ The full report goes into much more detail.
