West Virginia State Senate Candidate Brutally Beaten At Cookout (Original Post)

(56,177 posts)1. This story has WTF all over it.
Why, especially since it was someone he knew.

The guy who beat him up wasn't a supporter and that was known. He sarcasticly asks for a bumper sticker. Later on he sees the candidate in stealth mode putting a sticker on his car. Beating ensues.
There is more to this one. Seems foolish no matter what I come up with.

if more than one person was involved.

(30,481 posts)4. Yeah. Could have been a number of things.
Hitting someone in the back of the head while they are kneeling down behind a car can do something to the memory.
Bet the "Champagne of Beer" was heavily flowing.
