Slovakia PM shooting live: Robert Fico in hospital after being shot - BBC News

I'm not a big fan of political assassinations, or attempts thereof, but I'm going to have to admit that I don't feel sorry for him. It's a reasonable balancing act against those who are permissive of right wing shitheads at the threat of violence. Political voilence (or preferably, lack of such) should be more bipartisan and politically evened out.

I'm not going to shed any tears if someone in a certain country south of Slovakia draws inspiration from this either.

I wish him a lengthy and painful recovery.

EDIT for clarification: I hope he survives with no lasting harm. I don't wish that kind of loss on his friends and family.

Let's hope this isn't an Archduke Franz Ferdinand moment. Last thing we need is full blown escalation in an already fractured geopolitical situation that could lead to WWIII.
