Good God.

What has the United States become.

A woman robbed at knifepoint at a Pittsburgh ATM told police her attacker knocked her down and carved a “B” in her face after noticing a John McCain sticker on her car.

Police say the victim refused medical attention for the wound. An officer saw the injury, but a police report does not describe its size or severity.

Authorities say the woman is from Texas, but aren’t identifying her.

Pittsburgh police spokeswoman Diane Richards says the woman was withdrawing money at 9 p.m. Wednesday when a man approached her from behind, put a knife to her neck and demanded money. She says she gave him $60.

The woman told police the robber then noticed the bumper sticker, punched her in the back of the head, knocked her down and carved a “B” on her face.


Video here.

The victim has been identified as Ashley Todd, a College Republican field representative.

Stay tuned……

Update:

Flap has to say he is skeptical too.

The smoking gun?: She declined medical treatment and the “B” looks very superficial.

    I find it awfully strange that the “B” is carved backwards. It’s almost as if the attacker had a mirror.

    Or the perp had the victim lying on the ground and was on top.

    Who knows, maybe the photo was flipped?

    The police will tell the story.

    this could be just a “normal” criminal and has nothing to do with politics. the murderer did that “B” so people think that it’s about politics.

    Obama Supporter Assaults Female McCain Volunteer in New York

    Yesterday we asked why the media was reporting a McCain supporter calling Barack Obama an “Arab” and completely ignoring Obama supporters calling Sarah Palin a c*nt, even wearing T-shirts with the phrase “Sarah Palin is a c*nt” on them.

    lying c*** (edited by Flap)… and in PA too?

    Watch the language

    what type of knife did the perp use .
    must have been a plastic one by the looks of the wound.

    Personally, I’m doubting that the attack ever happened. There are plenty of cameras at that intersection. If something happened, or didn’t, we should know very soon.

    We Libertarians have been victims of Democrat thuggery for years. They’ve blocked our petitioners, stalked us, all over the country: Montana, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, most recently brutal incidents in Arizona.

    So, I’m not at all surprised by this story. We’ve been screaming at our Republican friends that the Democrats/ACORN are complete thugs, for years. But they just pooh-poohed our assertions.

    I feel sorry for the girl, but maybe this will finally wake Republicans up, that Democrats are completely violent Thugs, and will do anything to stop the supporters of liberty.

    Bush screwing up EVERYTHING he touched for eight LONG years hadn’t given Democrat voters quite the level of intensity to come out voting in MASSIVE numbers, so McCain campaign gave us that little kicker of a PHONEY racist scare story.
    NOW we have just the correct amount of INTENSITY to stand in line 12 hours (if need be) to get you all OUT of our government.
    I suggest Democrats go to the polls with a backwards Mc drawn on their cheeks, it will be great psy-ops for Republicans, and make that tedious exit polling UNNECESARY
