Rand Paul files civil lawsuit against neighbor who attacked him

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., is pursuing compensatory and punitive damages from his neighbor who attacked him last fall for the “physical pain and mental suffering” he endured from the incident.

In a civil lawsuit filed Friday, claims that Paul has “increased likelihood of, and susceptibility to, injury and disease and … he has been deprived of his enjoyment of life” as a result of the attack. The lawsuit argues that the attack was “unnecessarily cruel, malicious, willful, wanton and evinc(ing) a total reckless disregard for (Paul’s) rights, life and liberties.”

Don't you think 2020 has something to do with this?I'm not smart enough to figure out what that something is.I just think a connection is there.

Paul is deserving of not only restitution but punitive damages in an amount to make the neighbor move away and never return, freeing him of the threat of a repeat performance.

After all, the guy got a jail sentence of WAY less time than it took Paul to recover from his injuries.
