Sounds like he and I should have crossed paths at some point.

He looks a lot like a guy I saw rummaging through the trash for returnables while muttering to himself that the Jews were the reason he had to rummage through the trash.

I'd be dead or injured now.

My heart goes out to the families of those killed or injured. Their loved ones died doing the right thing.

I'm struggling to cope with my horror and outrage. It was this comment that put me over the edge:

"When the train stopped moving, the guy who stabbed them was cursing and he said, 'This is free America, I can do whatever I want."

That and the fact that a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives who assaulted a journalist for doing his job still won his election.
