[smartvoter]

A Los Alamos lab whistleblower scheduled to testify before Congress about alleged financial irregularities was badly beaten outside a bar — an attack his wife and lawyer believe was designed to silence him.

1. Los Alamos is like another planet

when you compare it to the rest of the towns in New Mexico. Everything is shiny and new, the streets are wider than average and smooth as silk. There seems to be a cop everywhere and the houses are twice as big as houses in the rest of the state.

Financial irregularities? You bet.

2. from what I read of the article.. the man would be dead

if the bouncer hadn't broken it up. What do you think?

3. My dad works at LANL

I have a message in to him to see what the local scuttle is.

4. That's the way gangsters have operated since Al Capone days!

I hope the guy knows who the guilty people are and can ID some of the goons! The people behind the attack probably brought in some out of town help, so the guy couldn't ID anyone. Cowards always attack in gangs...
