She is accused of committing a subway commuter’s worst nightmare,"Queens DA Richard Brown said. "(He was) suddenly and senselessly pushed into the path of an oncoming train, shoved from behind with no chance to defend himself.

More important note to self: stay out of NYC.

All of us need to thank give a heartfelt thanks to the ACLU for making it nearly impossible to have people like this committed. Their tireless work for the extremely mentally disturbed, like themselves, shouldn´t go unnoticed.

The fruits of diversity.
Just think, if he had pushed her it would also have been classified as a ´hate crime´. If you want to get out of being charged with a hate crime in NYC be careful to push only white folk to their deaths.

It´s supposedly a hate crime because this crazy woman thought the guy was a Muslim. Why isn´t it just plain old murder? Intent, with malice aforethought, guilty.

We should ask Feinstein to add subways to the list of banned weapons. People have wantonly used this tool twice now to murder innocent victims. By all means, protect us from the wrenches, not the nuts.

Feinstein is probably mulling over whether to ban subway trains, just platforms or what else. So much to ban, so little time.

Watch for oil to double.
Just more chaos for Obama to use ...

Her lawyer, "Your Honor, this is a case of an mistaken identity. My client was going toss a Muslim, but she was mislead by her turban tying reorganization abilities. In addition, she was simply mimicking some comedy business she had seen on Seinfeld, when Elaine pushes another actor. I move for dismissal."

Isn´t murder, by definition, even more hatey than hate?
It´s like charging a corpse with having the sniffles.

People!- It´s not trains. And it´s not guns or bullets. It´s STEEL! We must outlaw steel! Even Conan the Barbarian understood this! Ah yes, the riddle of steel. And outlaw mental illness. There´s just too much of it - especially in New York. "Steel is strong. But the mind is stronger". And let´s set a limitation on the size of IQ´s and biceps. Bloomie - get right on this.
And remember the perp who did this is one of the people that every democrat wants to make sure that they vote.

There appears to be little or no outrage over this horrific crime.
Mayor Blooming-idiot´s response was to ´keep the crime in perspective´.
Are NYers that indifferent to such depravity?

Well-put, #11.
By singling-out some murders as hate crimes, Political Correctness twists perspective in a way that suggests some murders might be love crimes.
What scares me most is the murders that happen for no particular reason, because such a killer needs no excuse to kill again. Apathy crimes like that might be the ones that deserve enhanced sentencing.

The train´s mother said "he´s always been a good train. He always did well in school and even volunteered at the old train´s yard." Even his neighbors said that they always liked the train. He was always friendly and the never saw this coming. What could make such a nice train turn bad?

This story proves what the rest of us know. It´s only a hate crime when it involves blacks or muslims. But when those very same blacks or muslims kill whitey, no such hate crime exists. When a muslim demands Ramadon meals, the SC agrees; when a christian business objects to mandated abortion payments, the SC disagrees. See the hyprocacy here?

Susan Patton, the Princeton alumna who became famous for her letter urging Ivy League women to use their college years to find a mate, has been denounced as a traitor to feminism, to coeducation, to the university ideal. But really she’s something much more interesting: a traitor to her class. Her betrayal consists of being gauche enough to acknowledge publicly a truth that everyone who’s come up through Ivy League culture knows intuitively —

A New York hedge fund manager allegedly swindles $12 million from a prominent Baltimore family. An Indiana couple is accused of bilking hundreds of customers by charging for free trials of cosmetic products. A financial manager in Texas promises 23-percent returns but absconds with $33.5 million of his investors’ money in a classic Ponzi scheme.All three cases have one thing in common: money that ended up in offshore accounts and trusts set up in tax havens around the world.

It is not clear whether that transaction is still being contemplated.

After lengthy investigations, the Pentagon has determined that three Army generals committed misconduct in separate incidents, adding to an unusually long list of senior military commanders who have been censured over the past year.On Friday, defense officials confirmed that Army Maj. Gen. Ralph O. Baker, the commander of a strategic counterterrorism force on the Horn of Africa, was fired March 28 on charges of sexual misconduct. Two officials familiar with the case said Baker was investigated for allegedly groping a female civilian employee after he had been drinking.

The Obama administration appeared eager Thursday to downplay the North Korean military’s latest threat that it has the final authority to carry out “cutting-edge, smaller, lighter and diversified” nuclear strikes on the United States.“This is just the latest in a long line of aggressive statements,” (Snip)the recent tension between Washington and Pyongyang “does not need to get hotter.”The remarks were the first public reaction from the Obama administration since Wednesday’s claim by the North Korean military that the “moment of explosion is approaching fast” with the possibility of war breaking out “today or tomorrow.”

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter. But I´ve long felt we lack a solid theoretical underpinning for easily discussing these issues, and why precisely it is that

Political scientist Charles Murray has never backed away from controversy, but usually his opponents have been liberals. Friday, however, he managed to upset conservatives at the annual conference known as CPAC, where thousands of bewildered Republicans gathered to figure out the way forward after their party’s 2012 electoral defeat. Murray ditched his prepared remarks on “America Coming Apart” in favor of an impromptu admonition to fellow conservatives to accept the legalization of both gay marriage and abortion.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

Fox News chief Roger Ailes has sent a memo to his subordinates at the leading cable news network. He sent this memo to his staff today in connection with the federal investigation into an alleged leak to Fox News reporter James Rosen, a story that the Washington Post’s Ann E. Marimow broke earlier this week. The memo’s a masterpiece, too. For all those who wonder what it is about Ailes that endears his people to him — and that makes him such a good interviewee for any media reporter lucky enough to get an audience

WASHINGTON —In a dramatic departure from existing White House procedures, President Obama requested today that his staff start cc’ing him on stuff. “Look, I know a lot of you think I’m really busy and you don’t want to bother me,” the President reportedly told his staff in an Oval Office meeting. “But cc me anyway. It’s good for me to keep up on what’s going on around here.” “It’s not good when I turn on the news and they’re talking about something at the White House and I’m like, whoa, when did that happen?”
