  • OMG!!!! WTF?!?

  • In case you can't read the word puzzle I just accidentally posted, that says, "Shock McCain campaign volunteer attacked and mutilated in Pittsburgh"
  • WTF?? That's appalling.
    "We tend to be patronizing about the poor in a very specific sense, which is that we tend to think,
  • Can't read that, but that's awful. Do we have any details?

  • There's no link from drudge yet. It's a developing story I guess. I'll post one if it gets linked.
  • Wow, that is horrific. I wonder if drugs were involved. I can't imagine a sane person being able to do that.

  • Holy crap that's awful. Ditto jamie - could you hold a person down that long?

    I don't know why this face is labeled "indifferent". ?It looks shocked to me.?

  • What?? I need to see an article with more info. That's crazy.

    Yeah. Or a psychopath. Either way no sane person does something like that. 

  • I can not wait for this election to be over. People are sick and stupid.
    Slainte!

  • O.M.G.  Sickening, yet I can't wait to hear what the explanation is for this one.
  • Sick.  I hope she's okay.  I imagine plastic surgery should be able to help the scarring, but it's probably painful.

  • I hope this doesn't sound cold, but HOW the F does anyone even do that? Carve someone's face?! Holy crap. That's terrible.

    Also, I am a terrible person (but a typical lawyer) because my second thought was that I hope the attacker was rich so the victim can sue the pants off him/her.

  • Sick sick sick.  And not like reason applies here, but why a "B"?
  • imageBlackMamba*:
    Sick sick sick.  And not like reason applies here, but why a "B"?

    If it was politically motivated, I would guess "Barack" or, (less likely as he has fewer supporters) "Barr"?

    If not politically motivated... maybe 'B*tch'?  Or it could just be the person's tag.

    ?

    If it's related to her canvassing, I think it would be a B for Barack. ?If it's totally unrelated to her canvassing, maybe B for b!tch??

  • Maybe it stands for "bonkers" b/c that's what this mutilator is.

    I will tell you "CRAZY" , seriously people are sick.

    PITTSBURGH -- A 20-year-old woman who was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield was also maimed by her attacker, police said.

    Pittsburgh police spokeswoman Diane Richard tells Channel 4 Action News that the victim was robbed at knifepoint on Wednesday night outside of a Citizens Bank near Liberty Avenue and Pearl Street just before 9 p.m.Richard said the robber took $60 from the woman, then became angry when he saw a McCain bumper sticker on the victim's car. The attacker then punched and kicked the victim, before using the knife to scratch the letter "B" into her face, Richard said.Richard said the woman refused medical treatment after the assault, which happened outside the view of the bank's surveillance cameras.The robber is described as a dark-skinned black man, 6 feet 4 inches tall, 200 pounds with a medium build, short black hair and brown eyes. The man was wearing dark colored jeans, a black undershirt and black shoes.

     

  • And while it's still awful and disgusting and terrifying, sounds like 'mutilated' is too strong if she refused medical treatment.  At least she won't be physically scarred. Emotionally, is another matter...
  • That is horrifying!!!

  • This is disgusting.  That poor woman!
  • That is AWFUL.

    I wonder why she refused medical treatment?

  • Sorry but using a knife to carve a letter into someone's face = mutilation in my book.

    I was hoping this wasn't political. I'm sad that it was.

  • imagezoegirlTX:

    that is NUTS!!! that poor womann.

    and what's up withe B?? for barack? seems like O would have been better and easier....  that's just so ...random?

    UPDATE: Richard confirms the account to Politico, and says the victim was from Texas, and didn't know the area.

    UPDATE: The Pittsburgh press reports the victim was a McCain staffer.

    Maybe the guy likes Biden more?

    Why does crazy shit always happen outside the surveillance camera's view?

    Poor lady.
