Did she actually get sprayed? It looked like the cap was still on the syringe.
Phenomenal. What was it now? Ai
What is wrong with you?
I don’t get enough credit for the things I manage not to say.

Vinegar goes against basic decency.

I think we will know if this was staged or not but whatever happens to this guy.
No one would risk prison time for a publicity stunt that someone asked them to do.
If they Kim Foxx him like what happened to Smollett and let him off the hook, you know it's an inside job.

If he meant to harm her, then why spray apple cider vinegar? Thought about our household chemicals and I can identify a half-dozen chemicals that would be more dangerous and still not cause any harm. Apple cider vinegar is water with a distinctive odor when it's sprayed like this. He probably diluted it for this little comedy skit
Maybe he didn't want to physically hurt her? Avoid assault charges but still make a spectacle for whatever whacked out reasons he had?

No, it doesn't.
Malt vinegar is awesome on fish and oil and vinegar is great in a salad.

Spraying someone with water avoids assault charges but apple cider vinegar doesn't?

I'll agree he definitely didn't want to hurt her.
What are your thoughts regarding his ex wife? As she is a hard core volunteer and supportor of both Omar & AOC, and he is a strong supporter of Trump, don't you think Omar's team would know who he is, and know that he isn't a fan?
And don't you think they might have a reason NOT to place the rabid, crazy Republican ex of a campaign volunteer in the very front row directly in front of the podium?
Either this is the first time in recent history that a democrat representative is unconcerned about optics; or, the optics are what they were going for in the first place.
I sure know which one I'm leaning toward...

She's wearing the same sweater from yesterday's "assault" in that pic with the perp. Was that taken right before the incident?

So for the sake of discussion, let's say it isn't fake and the guy is on the political right. (For the record, it looks absolutely staged.)
He squirted apple cider vinegar at her.
If Omar was a conservative and this guy was on the left, it wouldn't have been a harmless liquid. It would have been a 30.06 round.
annie88 said:Quote:
Minneapolis Council Member LaTrisha Vetaw, who ended up being hit by some of the liquid, told The Post the stench was so bad she vomited.
"It smelled like vinegar or ammonia," Vetaw said, adding that the odor was "overwhelming."
"It started out smelling really like apple cider vinegar-smelly. Then it started to smell like ammonia, like a strong, pure ammonia smell, I was wondering why the smell wasn't going away."
"I got sick to my stomach," she continued. "I went outside and threw up because, like, the smell was so strong.
OK, some people have more sensitivity to things, but this is stuff that some people swig daily for health.
Give me a break.

I won't pour salt in the wound, but again, you're way off base. Don't be so caustic.

At our lakehouse had a huge problem with deer eating our flowers and garden. There are some horribly smelling sprays available that repel deer. Also hunters use some scents to mask their human smell. All are completely harmless but are not pleasant to get a whiff.

careful. You might be accused of being a conspiracy theorist and having a paranoid mind for posing such an illogical concept.Slwdsm said:
Not seen it mentioned... why was this random "bad person" allowed front row aisle seat at the press conference?
Not security close to her. Not a news/camera person. Not a staff member... just happen to give the seat up to an "attacker".
Someone should compare to other press conferences and public appearances she has done previously.
