Somebody threw a brick through Rep. Cassidy’s office window early this morning, she says

Posted in:

* Ugh…


This morning our office was attacked. Security footage shows a brick was thrown through one of our windows around 5 am by an individual who then fled northbound towards Bryn Mawr. Police are investigating. Board up is on the way and we will still be here to help our constituents. pic.twitter.com/T8GvnSFcSX

…Adding… The tweet was deleted and replaced by this one because the footage suggests the brick-thrower was a woman.

  1. If I’m not mistaken, that’s also the office of Sen. Simmons, Comm. Gainer, and Ald. Osterman.

    It’s really getting ugly out there.

  5. Darren Bailey, living in an expensive tower, funded by a tycoon, enabling violence in the neighborhoods.

    That sounds about right.

  6. @bluebayou, you’re assumption of motive with zero evidence is not productive to the general discourse.

  7. @Cmon - well said.

  8. To quote the Blues Brothers, “I hate Illinois Nazis.”

    But seriously, I hope these criminal acts of political violence are investigated and the perps held responsible. And hopefully the ILGOP will get wiped out so bad they find a way to reform and get away from the extremist/fascist track they’re on and back to some semblance of decency.

  9. Why bother? They will be given a ticket and asked not to do it again. UNLESS, there is a different standard for Dem elected officials. This will be interesting…

  10. I don’t get why the tweet was changed. It was changed because it suggests the person was a woman? Do you mean they have no idea of the sex so they don’t want to imply something? Or do they not want to accuse a woman even though they think it was a woman?

  11. ===It was changed because it suggests the person was a woman?===

    The original text referred to a “guy”

  12. A simple “I disagree” would have sufficed; bricks through windows are not civilized discourse. Hope they find the offender, this may also be a Fed crime of attempted intimidation, etc. The Feds showing up for you has a little bit different impact…

  13. There is no reason for this. Any jerk breaking windows deserves to be put in jail.
