OSWEGO, N.Y. — Police were investigating Monday whether derogatory remarks about President-elect Barack Obama triggered a weekend fight outside a pizza shop that left a college student hospitalized and a Fort Drum soldier in jail.
Oswego police charged 23-year-old Pvt. Kevin Flanagan with assault.
A fire support specialist with the Army’s 10th Mountain Division, Flanagan got into an argument with Angel Moreno just after 3 a.m. Sunday outside the Pizza Pub in Oswego, police said. Flanagan then hit Moreno, leaving the Bronx man with a severe head injury. Police said it did not appear Flanagan used any weapons.
Police Capt. Michael Beckwith said police have heard reports the fight started over remarks about Obama, but that the incident was still under investigation. Friends told police that Moreno is an avid Obama supporter.
...
Moreno is a student at the State University of New York at Oswego. He was airlifted to University Hospital in Syracuse in critical condition but a hospital spokeswoman said his condition was upgraded to serious on Monday.

4. Agreed. Lock the bastard away in solitary for 20 years and see how he likes it.
This could very easily be a hate crime.
And that is how it starts. Pretty soon you won't be able to say anything about barry.

Really? The way I read that story...the soldier hit the civilian because of a remark the civilian made about Dear Leader.
Shouldn't they be lauding him?

OSWEGO, N.Y. – Kevin Flanagan, 23, faces an assault charge after police say he got into a fight outside Pizza Pub on Bridge Street. According to police, the Fort Drum soldier hit Angel Moreno, a 19-year-old SUNY Oswego student from the Bronx.
Moreno was part of a group that Flanagan got into an argument with inside the shop. An argument not about pizza, but politics.
One witness who was with Moreno told police, "The males began yelling about Obama and being derogatory toward him. We all said that he is our president now and he is our leader, so deal with it. Words were exchanged, but we got over it."
Things escalated when the two groups left the shop
A witness who was inside Pizza Pub told police, "I then saw a tall, skinny black male push Flanagan. I then headed outside. Just as I got outside, Flanagan swung one time and hit the kid in the face. The male then instantly fell down."
Court papers say Moreno hit his head against a truck before hitting the ground. Moreno was airlifted to University Hospital.

It looks like Moreno started it, and Flanagan finished it. I seriously hope they drop the charges against the soldier if the other kid pushed first.

At 3:00am I am sure that alcohol was probably involved.

Nope, Flanagan was apparently a McCain supporter, but as said above, the it was started by the moonbat and the mission completed by the soldier.
Isn't their an award for something like this? :evillaugh:
BTW, you gotta be pretty strong to send someone to the hospital on one punch. :cheersmate:
Yeah moonbats, **** with our soldiers some more. Moreno can be your spokesman.

If I had his info I'd type up the DA 638 for it myself.
Moonbats take note...think twice before you decide to tangle with a member of the Army...not only do we take Combatives these days...we are active in MMA.
Consider yourself warned if you decide to put your hands on us.

Michael Yon, noted internet Journalist and former Special Forces acidentally killed a guy in a bar with a single punch to the face when he was much younger.
You just don't **** with total strangers or you wind up getting the horns.

DU buried that story in the depths of the State forums.
Since the leftist started it, they swept the story away.
get used to that shit for the next four years.

Don't think so, sounds like the college student was the Obamite. However, it would seem most likely that the Soldier made some heretical crack about The One and the student initiated a fight and got the worst of it. Can't say for sure based on the limited info, but that sounds like the most likely scenario.

Sigh.
Things have changed pretty badly when you can't even have a simple fistfight without a whole bunch of words being expended.
Arrested the soldier? Put him in jail? For punching out a dumbass who started the altercation to begin with?
I guess the cops really didn't have anything else better to do that night.
Pathetic.

He's lucky the fight didn't take place in Watertown. The cops there would have locked the troop up anyway. Ft. Drum isn't looked to kindly on by alot of the townies there mosyly because of crap started way back when by the New York National Guard spending thier time at Drum and them going into town and starting all kinds of shit with the town folk.
Things might have changed since I was there back in 88-89 but I am not certain tha tit changed that much after reading the story. At least this time the Soldier wasn't at fault and the college dweeb got his just rewards.
