I'm sure you've all seen the video of the man spraying Ilhan Omar with an unknown (but "foul smelling" ) substance yesterday.
First, not funny. Assault. It could very well have been acid and that stuff is scary.
Once confirmed not acid, still not funny. And gross. "Foul smelling" yellow liquid could be week-old nasty urine.
I would immediately burn my cloths, and disinfect in a tub of Scottish gin. Inside and out.
What I find amazing is watching some accounts / people on the right behave exactly like Blue Anon nut-bags on the left. Immediately and without any hesitation calling it "fake". A "set-up".
In order for it to be fake, or a set-up, everyone would have to be in on it. Including the assailant.
If the guy disappears and never gets caught / doesn't get identified, I would easily conclude Smollett set-up as well.
But the guy was arrested on the spot and identified.
Apparently he has a social media footprint that is pro-Trump.
Now, it could be a set-up in a "LIHOP" - Ilhan / Minnesota Dems had operatives who entrapped / instigated the guy to do what he did, and let it happen. Ok. Maybe. But that would be one heck of a LIHOP / operation for some pee-pee on Ilhan.
If the guy gets no punishment (or no meaningful punishment), then we could possibly conclude "set-up" in that Ilhan got the optics she wanted, the guy (who apparently has been heavily medicated due to a back injury from a car accident), get paid or whatever, never punished, and fades into oblivion.
What I find amazing is watching a world descend into "nothing is real", "everything is an OP".
"Trump was never shot. It was fake blood".
But Corey was murdered, two others shot.
"Yeah, they were sacrificed, but the blood on Trump's war was fake".
It's a form of social / political psychosis. Delusions. Set aside dialogue - it's full detachment from reality. It's people walking among us in alternative universes.
The reality is that the guys probably was a disgruntled Trump supporter. Injured. Angry. Watching Somalis steal money while he suffers and probably can't pay his own medical bills.
The suspect's name is James Kazmierczak. Seems to be Polish descent. I thought it would be greatly ironic if he was of Ukrainian descent, angry that monies were being fraudulently stolen by Minnesota Somalis instead of going to the Ukraine effort.
Unlikely. Most likely he is just a disgruntles while American male, pissed off that he is being sidelined and robbed by Somali and government corruption.
The only difference being that Lefties get angry, they shoot you.
Conservatives get angry, and they spray you with nasty liquid.
Still not cool and needs to be prosecuted. If you have ever seen the consequences of an acid attack, it is not something that can be taken lightly. Nor is it something that can be laughed off.
Nor is it something that can be written off as "staged" in the absence of any meaningful evidence to support the claim.
Peace!
