California man arrested for allegedly punching 84-year-old female Trump supporter in face
[WashingtonExaminer] A California man has been arrested after allegedly attacking a group of President Trump supporters and striking an 84-year-old woman in the face.

"He took his hand way back like he was going to punch me, and [he] hit me right across the face," 84-year-old Donna Snow told KCAL 9 News Los Angeles about the alleged attack at a Wednesday night Trump rally in Aliso Viejo, California. "Broke my earrings off."

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office says a retired police officer stepped in, pulling his gun and apprehending the man who was allegedly armed with a knife at one point and screaming profanities at the group as he tried to flee.

Alvin Gary Shaw, 33,
...decidedly elderly for the yoot category, but clearly feral...
is in police custody facing charges of elder abuse, assault with a deadly weapon, and assault and battery.

Three other people were allegedly assaulted by Shaw during the fracas, and one person was taken to the hospital with a neck injury.
The Daily Mail has the usual photos, including several of our miscreant in a brilliantly white, clearly ironed white t-shirt demonstrating a middle class sensibility not usually seen in the feral yoot category. The article adds:
Alvin Gary Shaw, 33, confronted the small group of people during the gathering in Aliso Viejo - 50 miles south of Los Angeles - around 6.30pm.

Shaw allegedly blew smoke in some of the supporters' faces and used his cigar to burn one person's Trump sign, according to local reports.

#3 Whoops! Missed this bit from the Daily Mail article:

Records show he was released from jail on Thursday after posting bail. According to the Orange County Sheriff's Department, Shaw works for the US Postal Service.

#5 Shaw works for the US Postal Service

I wonder if he still works there.

No regards as to the condition of who he attacks, and willing to throw everything away for nothing. About as directed and discerning as a Palestinian terrorist. Someone must have convinced him he is some kind of righteous victim.

#7 Exactly right, Frank, since up to SECRET collateral can be transported via Registered Mail (and I think within CONUS, Express Mail can be used to mail some classified).
