A Democratic Candidate Was Beaten and Knocked Unconscious at His Home

https://www.vice.com/en/article/93a8qp/pennsylvania-richard-ringer-assault

On Monday morning, Ringer says, he woke up around 5 a.m., heard someone attempting to open his garage door, and saw a flashlight in his yard.

“I said, ‘I’m tired of this crap,’” Ringer, 69, told VICE News.

Ringer said a man was in his driveway with his back turned to him, so Ringer tackled him, and “as a result, we end up on the ground.” The man was larger, however, and Ringer said he was hit in the head “about 10 times.”

“He knocked me out, so I have no idea who the hell he was,” Ringer told VICE News.

No camera, no nothing... 69 year old decides to tackle dude in his driveway... dude in driveway didn't leave when garage door opened?


This has the "Jussie PR style" all over it, IMHO

2. Serious. He needs to think twice before tackling someone. He is 69 yrs old. Maybe he was

half sleeping. IMHO

Wait... No "MAGA has invaded Canada" or "Reichwing Attack" or "It was an assassination attempt!!!"

DUmp. Im truly disappointed. Not that I expect to not be disappointed.

So he saw a guy standing in his driveway and was able to get to him and tackle him without alerting him to the unprovoked attack?  Ringer must have some ninja skills.
