1. I want to know what the guy who slammed her to the ground
is going to get. That's where the concussion came from. Her head hit the ground pretty hard.

4. Raw Story fails again..
"Such a charge carries a maximum penalty of 12 months in jail, a $500 fine, or a combination of both, the newspaper reported."

And/Or - not "or"

5. BIG difference. My, oh my, which will I pick?
How about a $50K fine or 12 months?

Oooooh, that's gotta sting. A whole $500, eh?

8. Our nation's laws in a nutshell


Beat up on a woman? Meh....no big deal. It's not like she's HUMAN or anything.


Now, if he'd only had some pot on him at the time. THEN we could put him away for sure, because of the evil weed destroying our communities....


But beat up on a woman? So what?

Gotta love America's legislatures and their priorities!


:sarcasm:

13. It'd be the same reaction if he stomped a Gay...
...oh wait, no it wouldn't. There'd be the ususal suspects show up to comment on the victim's masculinity and state in their ever-so-clever fashion that he or she probably had it coming.

Shameful either fucking way. Shameful.

16. $500 for a brain-injury?!!!
Edited on Tue Nov-02-10 02:31 AM by avaistheone1
Lauren Valle suffered a concussion after that stomping!!!

The penalty $500 or 1 year in jail? WTF this is an insult to Lauren Valle, and just a slap on the hand to Timothy Profitt the stomper.

9. Now about that CCW he holds
who can not hold one in Kentucky

Has been convicted of a misdemeanor crime of assault in the 4th degree or terroristic threatening within the previous three (3) years. The commissioner of the Department of State Police may waive this requirement upon good cause shown and a determination that the applicant is not a danger and that a waiver would not violate federal law.


That beats a $500 fine. He'll have to walk around neck'd.
