A break-in at the campaign headquarters of a California Republican congressional candidate on Wednesday has left behind a wreckage of smashed computers and cut cords only six days before the primary.
quote:

Computer screens were shattered and laptops flooded with water, leading police to classify the break-in as “no random act of violence” according to McCulloch. No estimate has been reported on the monetary damage to the campaign headquarters.

It will be interesting to see, if they apprehend the culprits, what was the motivation. Was it hating on the GOP or was it hating on a gay man?

Maybe hating on a gay Rep. by the gay left for what they consider an act of treason toward their mantra?

Where is the "what did he know and when did he know it?" question.

Very likely hating on a gay man who dared to stray off the plantation.

since it was before a primary, I am guessing it was his opponent that did it. His motivation, I dunno.

I'm sure the culprits will be caught singing the Horst Wessel song. Its NSDAP style tactics.

I'm sure the culprits will say it was a misunderstanding, and that they 'spilled their drinks on accident' mistakenly in the wrong office.

It could have been the own candidate's staff that did it for all we know.

I'm sure his repub opponents are thinking they'll garner all the LGBT votes if they just take him out.

I wouldn't be shocked if his sexual orientation had something to do with the motivation behind this.....but these days you can't rule this out as a publicity stunt orchestrated by his staff.

IMHO, there has been too many things happening to this guy by “happenstsnce.”

First democrats are “ being mean and outing him ” and he gets free name recognition and will probably get some crossover democratic votes ( you know how liberals feel sorry for people and vote on emotions ) and will probably gain some republican Cali votes because of name recognition.

Now “ someone trashes his computers ” 6 days before an election, AHEMMM, excuse me if I am sceptical, this reminds me of certain events that happened back east, where a sensitivity guide or a “racist watcer”, or whatever the position was called that the student had ( they have so many names ) anyways, remember the very student in charge of racial sensitivity awarenees, was caught painting racist graffiti on the school campus.

Not saying 100 percent that this is the case, but just saying this is really strange.

Anyone know if he is behind in the polls ?

I would not be suprised if democrats did this to try to frame one of the republican front runners and paint the republican primary candidates as bigots while simultaneously sabotaging the homosexual candidate.

I really hope this was not done by bigoted republicans, but it's certainly possible.
