Pie thrown at AnnThrax Coulter during a speech.

Men Nail Conservative Ann Coulter With Pies

POSTED: 6:44 am EDT October 22, 2004
TUCSON, Ariz. -- It appears they didn't like what conservative columnist Ann Coulter had to say.

Two men ran on stage and threw custard pies at Coulter as she was giving a speech at the University of Arizona Thursday night. Coulter was hit in the shoulder. The men were arrested by university police.

In her half-hour speech, Coulter trashed Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, liberals and Democrats, while praising conservative students who attended her speech.

Coulter writes a column for Universal Press Syndicate. Her appearance was sponsored by the UA College Republicans.

There is some justice in the world after all! Too bad they missed her face. :twisted:

Have a very nice day.

How deliciously funny, although this will only give her more reason to open her mouth.

No, that's Dick Cheney. He's just a mere vampire. Ann Coulter is something approaching a dark nexus of unholy energy, unfortunate enough to be born into a conservative background. We're just lucky she's a girl, sexual frustration would probably turn her into a paragon of evil Satan would masturbate to.

Ann Coulter is no girl. She is an androgenous cyborg created by the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy as an autonomous propaganda device.

Have a very nice day.

I firmly believe that if you lifted Ann Coulter's skirt, you'd find that there's no opening. It would be smooth, like an action figure, and there would be a serial number stamped on it.

That was popular here to at one time.

Our minister of finance got a cake in the face while he was on his way to present the budget.

Later some genius went one better and nailed the King! However the final joke was on him when he found out that splattering a cake in his Majesty's face isn't a regular minor thing that you get a small fine for but a high crime that you can get four years in prison for... :twisted:

I think the two intruders should have doused her with water. The audience would have been witness to the subsequent spectacle of Coulter dissolving slowly as she shouts "I'm MELLLTING!!!"

It's possible that the pie's asymmetrical weight distribution affected its movement through the air so that it changed orientations away from the ideal "topside toward Coulter-face" position in flight. Also, the lack of a handle and the large flat surface of the pie plate might have limited his control during a one-handed throw. It's possible that it slid down on his hand, thus altering the throwing arc and resultant trajectory.

You'd think the optimal range of such a projectile would be about 5' as well. I'm confident I could hit a head-size target with a pie at that range!

Excellent theory, Lord Wong. BRILLIANT!

I would heft the pie to get a feel, then attempt to compensate for the irregularities in the weight distribution (rotate the pie so heavy end it in hand), the less-than-optimal launcher/projectile interface (attempt to grip the rim with thumb), and the again less-than-optimal ballistic coefficient (chuck it harder!). :)

Don't forget the poor aerodynamics. A pie in flight has a large frontal surface, causing high resistance. If the launching unit failed to compensate for the resistance, the reduced velocity would cause a hit lower on the target than anticipated.

I was thinking that Dick Cheney was a cyborg, although looking at it again, Ann Coulter probably already is a paragon of evil.

Dick Cheney is a terminator, he was sent back in time to 2004( he was supposed to go to 1984) in an attempt by skynet to skew the 1984 election and pass the Nuclear Proliferation act to build nuclear weapons which would arm SkyNet.

Ann T. Coulter is a Stepford Wife, In 1975, her human counterpart was kidnapped by Stepford Inc. and a robot duplicate was created. Using a new technology called skin decay electronic field to simulate aging and a 1970's neural net to act if she is changing, Ann Coulter acts human but has a agenda. She is designed to skew the 2004 election to create a totalian society and suppress humanity.

I hate her. I really fucking HATE her. And I'm not talking about your everyday hate you'd direct at, say, the dog that just shit on your lawn. This is a seething, boiling cauldron of wrath and bile. It is a degree of loathing where I would seriously not mind watching the skin melt from her face in rivulets of molten tissue, like in Raiders of the Lost Ark. If she got a leg blown off by an Iraqi RPG I would be upset that they didn't get the rest of her. She would make me believe in the existence of Satan if she didn't prove first that there truly is no God.
