A Tragic Irony
[guest post by Dana]
It’s always been about the Jews:
One of the eight people injured in an attack against a group of people gathered Sunday on Boulder’s Pearl Street Mall was a Holocaust survivor. . .
A friend, Chany Scheiner, told 9NEWS that one of the victims was a Holocaust survivor.
“She is an amazing person. Not because she is hurt. She always is an amazing person,” Scheiner said. “She speaks – she has spoken at our synagogues, as well as other synagogues and schools just about her background and the Holocaust and from her own perspective. She is passionate about standing up for good things, and she is an extremely exceptional person. Always a smile on her face. Her life wasn’t easy, but she is just a bright light. And anybody who is her friend is a friend for life.”
It’s heartbreaking that an individual who survived a living hell in her earlier years also had to survive a living hell in her later years. And in the same nation that had earlier rescued so many like her.
If you’re keeping score:
So in a period of less than 2 months, individuals openly claiming to be motivated by the “free Palestine” movement have:
– Tried to burn down the home of the Jewish Pennsylvania Governor with his family inside.
– Executed a couple leaving a Jewish museum in DC
– Thrown Molotov cocktails at elderly Jewish people advocating to free hostages in Colorado.
The intifada is already here. The people who tried to downplay this threat should be ashamed.
About the cold-blooded suspect:
“When he was interviewed about the attack, he said he wanted them all to die, he had no regrets and he would go back and do it again,” Acting U.S. Attorney J. Bishop Grewell for the District of Colorado said during a press conference Monday.

Anti-illegal Alien sentiments.
Conversations on not just whether we should have immigration polices, but also the kinds of people we want to immigrate.
These are topics are part of the reasons why Trump and nationalism is a thing.

Man accused of killing Jewish protester in Thousand Oaks pleads not guilty
lloyd (7c8e13) — 6/3/2025 @ 6:37 pmHow many palestinian women and children week killed so far this? We care for all or we care for none. Hamas can be destroyed without killing starving women and children in a food line. On a lighter note communist chinese agent was caught at detroit airport bringing in a known pathogen to kill people and destroy crops. That used to be an act of war. We will see what the draft dodger does.

The actual agent was sent home by Customs before they found out what the substance was. They have charged him, but he remains in China. They also charged a woman at U of Michigan who seems to have been forced to collaborate with him. The Chicoms are assh0les that way.
Kevin M (04ae02) — 6/3/2025 @ 9:34 pmAsset, what I’ve noted were crimes against Jews in the U.S., not where a war is taking place. That’s sort of the point: this was a peaceful group protesting quietly and were viciously attacked by a lunatic who made clear his motivation and loyalties.
But to your other point T, yes, I care what happens to the poor Palestinians caught up in the crossfire, while just wanting to live a quiet life. They’re in a no-win situation, hungry, targeted, and without resources. It’s shameful. I am encouraged to see more and more Palestinians pushing back against Hamas and bravely marching in the streets and saying No More! to their oppressors.

It absolutely is shocking.
Dana (a4db1c) — 6/4/2025 @ 7:41 amIt is abhorrent, but shocking?
In a free society, the government cannot prevent most evil acts, it can only respond to them. All these recent attacks – including the attempted assassinations of Trump, the Bourbon St. vehicle attack and every school shooting too – have been acts of lone evil/crazy people. The Boulder guy (thankfully) couldn’t even find a sympathetic accomplice to buy him a gun.
If any of us were so inclined, we could take a knife, or a car, or go buy a firearm – right now – and go harm somebody, maybe quite a few somebodies. We would almost certainly be caught or killed, but not before the harm was done.
It would be (more) shocking if an organized group were able to bring off multiple attacks and get away with them – groups of people working together are something the government has a better chance to stop. And they do stop some organized plots.
