A Case of Misattribution?

[lynn cates]

unintentional

Hello Maria. I think Rob's idea is that it was a sort of "oops" event--something unintentional. (Do you recall Christer's old thesis here?)

As I say, it could use some working out of details, but has some things to commend it.

Cheers.

Sure Tom, but we're talking anarchists then and now. In those old Victorian days, anarchists used to be the good guys. (More or less.)

PS.: And Christer's idea was for a domestic, Lynn.

anarchists

Hello Tom. Yes, and we sometimes lose sight of that fact.

Cheers.

domestic

Hello Maria. Thanks. Yes, a domestic; but, a sudden flare up of temper and, ostensibly, an unintended killing.

Cheers.

Hi Maria. "Those days" weren't too long ago, and only 20 years prior to one of those anarchists killing an American President. I actually have a lot of material relating to London anarchists from that period, so I'm not confusing today with then when I talk about anarchists.

Yours truly,

Tom Wescott

[mariab]

Tom, which American president can you possibly mean? JFK?

I'm kinda tipsy on Génépi and feelin' GOOD right now.
Just thought of Anarchy in the UK by the Sex Pistols.

[Tom_Wescott]

Yeah, because that was about 20 years after. I'm talking about McHenry.

Yours truly,

Tom Wescott

Mc Henry? Sorry. If you're not kidding, I'm coming up short on him. Who was he?

PS.: My Pro snowboarder pal Alex Doumergue just walked in. Now it's getting serious. And did I mention I DON'T WANNA LEAVE tomorrow afternoon? :-0

Anarchy

Hi Tom/Maria

I'm only a right pond Brit, but wasn't it McKinley in 1901?

what's in a name

Hello Dave. Good. But can you pronounce the anarchist's name? (heh-heh)

Cheers.

Well, Mc Kinley I've heard of. Mc Henry nope, sad to say.

Well, guys, apologize for being so ordinary, but like Rob said, “I have to take a p*ss so bad“ (too much Génépi), the bar's WC aint' in working order, so I'm going home and gonna leave my laptop there. Will be back tomorrow evening from Berlin (that is, if I survive the trip back).

[Cogidubnus]

But can you pronounce the anarchist's name? (heh-heh)

By heck Lynn I had to google that...and I see what you mean... "Leon Czolgosz"...what a mouthful!

[lynn cates]

pronunciation key

Hello Dave. Yup, and no other. I wonder if there is a pronunciation key?

Cheers.

Hi Lynn

This thread has now wandered SO off-topic...I'm sure Tom's itching to call me on it (and don't altogether blame him)...Erm any chance it's pronounced Kosminski?

It seems quite likely by the cashous that Liz Stride was comfortable right up until the moment he grabs her, so the murder may have been a spontaneous act by her killer.

He tries to pick her up, while in the yard or just outside the gates, she says "p*** off, Im not working, Im waiting for someone". Thug gets in front of her and pokes her in the chest while talking to her, she takes out some mints to essentially get the taste of his rotten breath out of her mouth, turns, starts walking out to the gates, he grabs her scarf and pulls back....all in a few seconds and in a momentary fit of rage.

Im thinking hired security guy or drunken BSM type, only maybe a Jewish BSM, inside the yard. I believe he was probably Jewish because I dont believe he left via the gates.

Best regards,
