Yesterday, we met Justin Zatkoff, the Michigan area College Republican who was savagely beaten by gay black communists after leaving a party. The CR have an official statement:
I think the assailant broke Justin's nose, cheekbone, eye cavity, and nasal cavity. The attack was completely unprovoked. I urge all of you to be careful and travel in groups when possible, especially until the elections are over.
A vigilant reader asked for more information on the situation from Truth Caucus, and a portion of their IM conversation is reprinted below:
truth caucus: well...
truth caucus: there isnt physical proof that it was from a liberal attacker...
truth caucus: he doesn't remember anything about what happened
truth caucus: And, I'm think that he might be jewish
truth caucus: and Ann Arbor has a large muslim population
operative: wow!
We knew it! ISLAMOFASICSTS! Get Hitch and Sully on this, stat!
More of their exchange is reprinted after the jump.

truth caucus: well--any time you beat someone that bad
truth caucus: you run that risk
truth caucus: (however, that may have been a little over the top.)
truth caucus: as far as medical bills...i'm sure he has insurance
operative: what other injuries does he have?
truth caucus: i've not seen a medical report
operative: did they contact the police?
truth caucus: Yes
operative: were any of his friends with him?
truth caucus: no
operative: was there alcohol or drugs involved at the party?
truth caucus: I don't know
operative: cause Justin is underage, isn't he?
operative: i mean, i'd be wary of going to the police if i was underage and inebriated, wouldn't you?
truth caucus: I dont think that would make much difference
operative: any idea why the attackers just left him there and didn't beat him more?
truth caucus: That's why it mimics a hate crime--beat him, and then leave
truth caucus: there was no money stolen
operative: but he only has a black eye and no other discernable marks. no fat lip, no broken nose...?
truth caucus: i think there is a nose issue...i didnt post all of the photos
operative: i think you should. there are sickos commenting on wonkette that this looks like a hoax.
operative: it seems that Justin has some enemies among the politicos at the university. what do you know about his "contested" confirmation or have you seen the anti-abortion video justin made last year that i read about on the internet? have the parties involved in all that been questioned?
truth caucus: I don't know who has been questioned
