3. Is there a question whether this really happened or not?
If it really happened, it's horrific.

28. You're being a bit dramatic, not I. I just reported a story I heard
on tv. Sorry if it didn't meet with your approval.

31. It's on local Pittsburgh TV station sites as well. This story is legit,
contrary to the dipshits on DU who just don't like the story. I feel bad for this woman.

32. It was on the news, so her story is "legit" in all facets?
Umm, I don't think so. Not yet.

9. Who sits still long enough to allow a "B" to be carved into their face? And THEN refuses treatment?

Don't be so gullible.

12. Really? Do you have a valid link for that? And I wonder why the
"media" doesn't know. I'll send a link to them if you have one. This story shouldn't be making the rounds if it's not true.

19. That story doesn't say it was self-inflicted, so I can see why
it's being reported, even if suspect. And FWIW, if she was kicked and hit by a big man, that could explain why she didn't fight back.

25. Yes, that's the suspect part. Someone needs to interview the poor dear
and find out what the truth is. It could have happened though; I'm not quite as willing as you to dismiss this. I can't imagine it's any fun being mugged if it really did happen.

18. Yep, let's blame the victim. Fuck her for getting mugged.
So what if there's zero evidence so far that she faked it? Doesn't matter, she obviously faked it!

11. Sounds a bit "parlockian" on the "b" part, just sayin....
Maybe she was really mugged, but color me skeptical on the rest.

15. This one sounds pretty far fetched
the Manson Family.... the Altamont murders... the Weathermen bombings... the invention of the word "Drug Culture..."

these are the things that we got 24-7 through the media to diminish interest in, what was, a peaceful, revolutionary movement for cultural change... social and economic justice

history was re-written, even as it was happening

33. Do you guys really believe. Someone robs someone. Then sees a sticker
and goes back to do something else? Not sure I buy that. As soon as he robs her. He's likely trying to get the hell out of there

39. it's awful if this happened.
But I find it suspect that Drudge had this before any of the other PA news outlets...and that she didn't seek medical attention.

46. This story reeks of BS. This is exactly what Morton DowneyJr. did years ago
Look at the pic over at hotair;

http://hotair.com/archives/2008/10/23/mccain-supporter-maimed-for-her-politics-by-robber/

The B is reversed. As in, she did it in the mirror.
