This is only the beginning.

Very surprising comment coming from you, Alxandro.

I'm merely referring to the CEO's of golden parachute persuasion, that's all.

Turns out it was a company gym.

Has anyone heard or read about who the puncher is?

That aspect of this event seems to be very low key.

I think they would have a tough time getting a non-biased jury for this guy.

That punch was what gangsta rappers call a "one-hitta-quitta"

Ha! good job, buy that man a beer. I watched snippets of the court hearing and i too felt that Fuld was an arrogant piece of crap and he is lucky in my opinion that he has so far got off so lightly. still, no honest person could earn $500,000,000.00 or so for a few years work i'm sure he is sleeping very well at night.


it seems a little disturbing though that barclays got lehman so cheap, seems to me like it is all a bit of a set up and seems to be a bit of a predetermined, convenient deal between international banking friends,

exactly, just a nice deal between crooks - I mean friends.
btw, i'd be curious what the attackers finishing move would have been...oh well

I am wondering why the MSM is not covering this story? I wonder if Rush talked about it?

A word of warning to those who condone the crime of assault on a admittedly scrum bag CEO. One day the lynch mod that you would have go after the CEOS will turn on you and come after you . It wont matter if your a law abiding citizen or not once the lynch mob see a reason to make you a target you have had it .

Cheers Luke .

The rule of Law - you must mean the golden rule (he who holds the gold makes the rules) as that's the one that applies here.

Come on jsobecky. Fuld was punched out and got a little wake up call. He wasn't assassinated or beaten to a pulp. In fact it appears he didn't even seek medical attention. Hell, I'd let everyone in this thread punch me out for 1/100 of that guys money - give me a break.

Personally I'd rather people spit on him when they see him, then maybe he will disappear behind his walls of money in fear of public ridicule.

Richard Fuld is right up there with Kenneth Lay and Jeffrey Skilling only he's probably going to get away without being prosecuted. He is Jack the Ripper of corporate world criminals.
