He also says he is not interested in seeking revenge against his attackers, but rather would like to understand what can lead a person to commit such a heinous attack.

“I mean, I don’t even want to seek revenge perse, and like, you know, attack them physically…my main concern, my main takeaway is what made attackers, individuals, to that point of hate where they saw an innocent bystander walking, and the first thing they do is attack them and hurt them…pepper spray them and attempt to seriously hurt them,” Borgen told CNN.

The full interview is below.

He may say that he does not want revenge, but we, society, need justice.

Not more revolving-door justice, beating around the bush, pie in sky liberalism, or turning the other cheek. Time for some old fashioned law and order, real and serious consequences, with lasting impact.

You don’t need to understand why animals attack — that is their nature. You just have to defend yourself and make sure that the animal doesn’t hurt anyone else.

Democrats support Jew haters and terrorists.

That he doesn’t want revenge needn’t be announced, to the world at large.

In the eyes of his attackers and other anti-semites that wish to harm a Jew, this statement only EMBOLDENS them by leaps and bounds.

To lead them to believe that Jews are a bunch of pacifists, is done to everyone’s detriment !

It’s obviously wrong of these animals to attack innocent Jews. Period.

But do those Jews fooled by this idol of Zionism now perhaps understand how terrible is the Zionist lie that they claim to speak in the name of world Jewry?

Zionism is diametrically opposed to Judaism. Period.
