I'm sure it's because the knife wouldn't open but that doesn't change the FACT that he was there to kill him. :grumble

So the libs will give an incompetent hitman a second chance because it's not fair that his knife malfunctioned. :shock:

Plus he was only attacking a Republican, they are not a protected, class, in Commiefornia. But if he had attacked, a heroin addict, defecating in the street while shooting up with a government supplied needle, they would have thrown the book at him. :banghead:

You know, after reflection this probably qualifies as a hate crime, with mandatory sentence enhancements.

It isn't a hate crime if the person being attacked isn't a disadvantaged minority or a "protected" class.

That is just the way the law is applied: Inconsistently.

Because the victim is a white, male, heterosexual, conservative. If he had been a gay, female, liberal, person of color, it would have been attempted murder.
