    Man Runs Over 80-Year-Old Planting Trump Sign In Yard, Then Kills Himself | ZeroHedge

    "An 80-year-old man who was placing a Trump sign in a residential yard has life-threatening injuries after being run over by a 22-year-old on an anti-Trump rampage in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The assailant later confessed to the crime via a phone call with police, only to kill himself before officers arrived to arrest him.

    This latest display of ugly leftist political violence took place at 5:45pm Sunday in Hancock, Michigan, a town of 4,500 located on the Keweenaw Peninsula. Police say the victim was placing Trump campaign signs in his yard when a man riding an ATV accosted him with obscenities and yanked the signs out of the ground. When the resolute octogenarian attempted to re-set the signs, the attacker drove back into the yard, and accelerated before running him over from behind and fleeing the scene..."

    Typical behavior by dims. You people disgust me with your ever-present violence to solve your own issues. At least this one had the decency to admit he was a coward, and took the cowards way out.

    Typical Democrat? Really?

    Political violence seems to be strong with the party of inclusion and tolerance.

    Typical? "You people"? Give me a break...

    There's no justification for this, I don't care what side you're on. But your attitude is only marginally better when painting with such a wide brush.

    If Trump is asked about this incident, do you reckon he'll say that there were good people on both sides, like when James Alex Fields Jr., a Republican white supremacist, ran over a whole crowd in Virginia?

    The last time righties on here immediately blamed Democrats for violence, the perpetrator turned out to be a registered Republican. They wouldn’t make the same mistake twice now with this story, would they?

    Good point, but was this an act of political violence?

    Was this done by a registered Republican like most political crimes in the USA seem to be? (J6, assassination attempt)

    Also, what's a "dim blast"?

    Not sure why some suicidal people can’t just leave without trying to take someone with them.

    Everyone knows this is a false flag. The assailant is obviously a part of MAGA

    Something similar happened in my neighborhood.

    A democrat, a typical dem mind you, was just berating an 80 year old man in critical condition.

    Of course the reason the man was in critical condition is that he was shot by their Republican neighbor. Typical pub.

    The libertarian neighbor could have stopped the whole thing but realized that the pub was standing on his own property when he raised the gun, so he typically thought it wasn’t his right to interfere.

    The Green Party woman across the street of course celebrated the shooting, as a killing would help to keep down neighborhood emissions but became despondent when she realized the body fell onto a milkweed, a critical host plant for the monarch butterfly. Typical, right?

    Anyway, her neighbor, a typical Tory, was simply baffled by the whole thing, as he’d never seen a gun before.

    His next door neighbor is a typical Whig and had plenty of experience with guns for hunting, but he did keep asking how the gun could fire so many shots without needing to be refilled with gun powder.


    Of course this happens almost everyday on my street. The whole thing is so typical it doesn’t even make the papers, because the headline would sound like, “Area man gets the paper.”
