51. Well actually, if you want my opinion...
When it comes to incidents like this (Randi Rhodes assault, IVAW bus) there definitely is a heightened chance that the incident was politically motivated because the politics of the organization/person at issue tend to breed more contempt from the Right Wing fringe than the average person/bus. HOWEVER, just because the chances are slightly higher doesn't automatically make it a politically motivated crime without further evidence. Regardless of politics, normal people are assaulted, normal buses catch on fire.

The responsible, intelligent, thinking person would be wise to go ahead and wait for more information to come out before making such strong assumptions. Otherwise you'll end up looking like a moron, like that AAR personality who made a fool out of himself by blaming the other side for Randi's errr..."slip and fall."

I also found your other post interesting, Proud Dad, in which you complained to the Police about the bikers at your peace rally being too loud. Wasn't it you who has said "fuck the police" on many occasions? Didn't you say that you were so self sufficient and tough that you would never need the help of the police in another thread a couple months ago? You are an interesting poster indeed...
