3. "the police office comes across a few seconds too late"?
No, he got there just in time to allow it to happen. Perfect timing I think.

4. That's bad security
I don't like Rupert Murdoch but there's no reason ANYONE should be hit with ANYTHING during a governmental meeting.

7. Not the proper way to respond
How do actions like this help anyone on our side?

10. It's not like we're responsible for Marbles pie trick
Who knows who's side Marbles is on?

16. regardless, its the action that matters
along with those supporting it, despite the fact it WILL be attached to the left regardless of whether that's marbles's side or not.

12. Maybe because violence (depending on how you define it)
Edited on Tue Jul-19-11 01:11 PM by truth2power
down the hierarchy - a la Murdoch's predations over the years - is A OK. Violence up the hierarchy is punished severely.

Someone else said that. Not me. Derrick Jensen. If there's anyone on this board who's heard of him I'd be surprised.

edit> to spell his name correctly

9. Poor Rupie, he had to take one for the cream...uh I mean for the team.
Silly actions by Marbles, but sometimes this bizarro world needs silly actions to get the point across.

I say...no harm...no foul.

If this is the worst thing (and it probably will be) that happens to Murdoch, it will be a real shame.

13. Fucking idiot
This gives the Murdochs an opportunity to play the victim card with the frail old man bonus card on top.

And not only that, the this is the only thing we will get from the hearing with the Murdochs on TV today.


Thanks a lot, dumbass.

14. Meanwhile, his wife knocked someone to the floor trying to slap the guy
on top of his head, it seems. Who ended up getting knocked over by her?

15. Go, Wendi!
She got in a good clout. I would have done the same thing if someone had attacked an 80 year old relative of mine. Disregarding the fact that the Murdochs are both scum, I'm glad to see one of those attacking loons get it back. Clobbering someone in the face can damage their eyes, not to mention the shock to the heart in an elderly person.

19. she actually seemed
to be protecting the other woman. She had her arm around her to perhaps steady her, rather than pushing her out of the way.

17. Better view at the 44-second mark of this video:
http://youtube/_68QgX9glTA

I had thought that Murdoch avoided the cream, but this vid makes it clear that he did, indeed, take a facial. :rofl:

18. It looks like
the reports that she also later managed to throw the pie thing in the attacker's face are perhaps correct, at least judging from his appearance. I wish my reflexes were that good.
