Click here to visit the new home of Politics Daily!Everyone has some fault in this situation. Can we see any video of her before her being attacked? Did she rush at Rand Paul for her photo op? I see this guy pushing down on her sholder with his foot and not her head and yes he should not have done that either. Why the wig, why the deception, when you start an incident shouldnt you expect some consequences? If people just knew she was a left wing attention seeker then what started the physical violence? Lots of missing info yet Mr. Ed can comment without hesitation as to who's at fault and who was totally wrong. I guess Mr. Paul instructed those supporters attending to rough up anyone against his platform. I am sure someone now wishes that anyone would have grabbed and wresteled to the groud Sirhan Sirhan in that similar situation of rushing toward a canidate. (If you are too young - Bobby Kennedy's assasin in the campaign crowd).

At the same time the Paul guy had no business stomping her head when she was on the ground. This scene looks like something from the Weirmar Republic during the 20s and 30s when their political rallies often broke out in violence
October 27 2010 at 2:36 PM PermalinkExercising Freedom of speech does not mean that you get to rush a candidate while yelling that I have something to give to you.Who knows what she had in her hand/s. Try rushing a Police officer in or out of uniform. She is lucky that she wasnt shot.
October 27 2010 at 2:36 PM PermalinkWow! Pushed to the ground and had a foot stepped on her back. That's really traumatic for a 23 year old person. Don't know how she'll ever recover. I guess this is her 15 minutes of fame. Somehow, the term "Jackwagon" comes to mind.
October 27 2010 at 2:31 PM PermalinkOkey, here we go. Let's look at this carefully. Footage of the incident shows this individual shoving their sign into the window (possibly the face) of an individual (Paul)sitting in the front seat of the vehicle. The security responded in kind to a possible physical assault. As this person continued to act in an aggressive manner they were wrestled to the ground. Another (not Paul) individual placed his foot on this persons SHOULDER not HEAD . It was after this persons aggressive behavior that she was identified as a woman. Please seek out the truth (facts) before an opinion is offered. Although I despise violence as a response, it now appears that this was a defensive maneuver not an aggressive one on the part of security. ,

I dont get the uproar of how she was treated. SOmeone please explain. If this had been the police or Secret Service she would have been treated much more harshley.
October 27 2010 at 2:25 PM PermalinkThe first question that came to my mind was....what is a 23 yr old doing 800 miles away from home with a wig on her head? When I 23 yrs old I was lucky to have gas money to get to work let alone driving 800 miles to act like a ding bat. I bet she's on some government assistance program, or has a daddy w/ money who should have kicked her back side harder when she was growing up. Shame on the guy who stepped on her for making her front page news.
October 27 2010 at 2:24 PM PermalinkThe problem is people going to places where they are not wanted with the sole intent of causing trouble. Then they have the nerve to object when they get their face rubbed in the pavement. If you ask for an azzwhippin ... chances are pretty good you will get one. Why anyone cares that some sniveling weasel from MoveOn.org got stomped is beyond me. Personally, I think it is cause for all to raise their glasses in a toast to the Stomper.
October 27 2010 at 2:21 PM PermalinkI am amazed at what people will do to put someone down. The award was premeditated with intent to disparage another person. She knew what could happen as she had been in the middle of previous attempts to put down this same person. Yes, the person that stepped on her needs to face the music but she needs to understand when you put your self in places you do not belong, things happen. I am so sick of antics pulled or attempted to be pull by crazies. These are the people that want a certain candidate in office. If that candidate attracts hoards of these people, what does that say about the candidate. It is a shame she placed her self in this situation. SHe got a pay back and she is going to sue. Sue whom, Paul, the bodyguards that took her out of action. They have every right to act and protect the candidate. or is she going to sue the candidate? Guess who I think she will go after. LOL
October 27 2010 at 2:21 PM PermalinkObviously, this woman from MoveOn.org went to this debate looking for trouble. Well, she found it. She rushes towards Paul as he exits his vehicle and some Paul supporters stop her and push her to the ground. And, she is wearing a wig in disguise. No one knew what her intentions were, so she was manhandled a little. This incident REEKS of set up!! And without doubt, MoveOn is a group of George Soros-backed far-left wackos. Her law suit will be tossed out -- or will never see a court room.
October 27 2010 at 2:16 PM Permalink +3Right, Brother Larry. Free speech is only for those who agree with us.
October 27 2010 at 2:20 PM PermalinkRidiculous - the response to free speech is not supposed to be violence. There WILL be a civil suit for damages, which will see a court room, and a jury, and an award. There may even be criminal charges for assault. Too bad you Tea Baggers not only don't understand constitutional law, but clearly don't understand criminal law, torts, or case law.
