[quote]Turkish-Bulgarian politician survives assassination attempt
19 January 2013 / TODAYSZAMAN.COM, İSTANBUL,
Ahmet Doğan, a Bulgarian politician of Turkish ethnicity and the leader of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (HÖH), survived an assassination attempt on Saturday when an armed man tried to shoot at him during a party congress.
An armed assailant approached Doğan as he was speaking during HÖH's 8th Ordinary Congress in Sofia. The man was luckily prevented from shooting at Doğan by the politicians' guards. Doğan was reported to be fine after the incident.
During his speech, Doğan was expected to announce that he was leaving his post and to lend support for HÖH Deputy Chairman Lütfi Mestan.
HÖH is a party whose members are mainly Turks.[/quote]
Lucky that the gun didn't go off.. but wow - Can't imagine what that would've been like. Kinda weird that they just started kicking the would-be assassin on the ground, but whatever. Security wasn't exactly top of the line, obviously.

Their response to the assassination was terrible. The top comment sums it up nicely. Molesting the assassin was wrong.

I lol'd so hard I spit out my soup all over my dog.

I lol'd when the they all stating beating the crap out of him. It was a very quick spontaneous, normal reaction to someone next to you almost being killed. Why do people think people think and react with perfect rationality all of the time?

Wow that was so close. How would you feel...
