If you think our political climate is hostile, try living in Bulgaria

I'm sure you've all heard politicians both Democratic and Republican use the term that "the other side is holding a "gun to the American people's head".Of course these people are simply being melodramatic in their political rhetoric, but it's still not necessary  In Bulgaria, that term took on a scary  new meaning today. A gunman attempted to assassinate the leader of Bulgaria's Turkish ethnic party during a televised conference.  It was captured on live television. The only thing that saved  the  Bulgaria’s Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF) party member Ahmed Dogan was that the gunman's gun jammed as he held it pointed to Mr. Dogan's head. When it's not your time to go, it's not your time to go. Police arrested the suspect but not before members of the MRF were able to kick the living snot out of the suspect. I will go out on a limb and wager that the suspect has no chance in hell of pleading not guilty of attempted murder.
