A gun-free zone. Another good reminder how awful this state is for those with targets on their back.

Are you surprised he was stabbed in a place called "the institute". This place has the wealthiest people visiting. Including the clintons. I wouldn't go in there without a flamethrower.

Who was the perp?
The suspect was identified as Hadi Matar, 24.
Huge supporter of the Iranian regime.
I think it is funny that so many, especailly the elected, are making such a huge deal of this stabbing. Each and every day Americans are stabbed and shot and beaten to death,.
This one is NOT special.

Did a little work there over the winter. Interesting place. Looked like a nightmare from a firefighting standpoint. Bunch of close houses on tiny streets. It may or may not have been a gun free zone when I was there. I didn’t see any signs.

Basically a large gated community with private owned residences and rentals. Gate security in summer but you can drive in/out unchecked in the off season.
It's supposed to be a place of thinking, philosophy and enlightenment, however from a reality based perspective its a very narrow view of the universe. Utopia on Prozac.
I've done business as well down there over the years. Public infrastructure is crumbling beneath their feet. Overpriced real-estate.

We drove right in and met the contractor we were doing work for. Did a couple waterline taps in there. Water lines were shallow, had brick lined access pits. Surprised they don’t have more issues with freezing lines. There was a bunch of contractors working all over. I was told that nobody is permitted to do construction work in there during their busy season so everyone works to be done before they fully open up. Was tight with the 450 work truck.
An interesting place. I was underwhelmed considering the money that flows through there.
The only thing thing overwhelming to me is that a piece of land the size of a car goes for around 400k.

Not everyone has a 33-year-old fatwa and bounty from the Supreme Leader of Iran calling for their death for writing a book, that has led to 37 dead in a fire targeting his Turkish translator, his Japanese translator stabbed to death, his Italian translator stabbed within an inch of his life, and his Norwegian publisher shot three times in the back.
Yes, it is more newsworthy than a run-of-the-mill street fight. Doesn't make his life more valuable, but it underlines that everyone should have the means to protect himself.
Cool. For real, awesome.
But as I stated in my earlier response....
He ain't special and good people are attacked all of the time. The elected and the MSM act like this is the most important crime of the month.
It is not, just a dude that was stabbed by an out out control Moslem Supremacist.
So, he was hated by people in Iran, good for him. Still no more important that the woman walking her baby that was attacked.
Society seems to think these stories are more important than others, I just pointed out that they are not.
