2. One problem is that, here in MA, the video is presented as MoveOn people attacking a Paul
supporters.

Now, it is clear what happened, but without explanation, all you can see is a woman holding a Rand Paul sign and people with Conway signs around. Very misleading.

3. Fucking THUGS
This is the first stomp down their "1st amendment solutions" path, and if it is allowed to go unanswered, it will only escalate.

5. Didn't one woman step on her when she went to the back of the pickup?
Nice people. I agree that it appears the first man who wrestled her down did a little extra grabbing along the way, as well.

29. It's a good thing her head wasn't closer to the curb or she would have had neck injuries, too.

11. Attempted Murder
A bunch of f*cking cowards, just like the Bush's, Rove and FOX News, O'Reilly, assesory to murder.
First Amendment my ass. She should practice the Second Amendment on these attempted murderers.

17. I agree...
In the late 1970s, I worked as an orderly in a hospital x-ray department. We had one high-school senior brought in with a neck injury suffered in a football game (rumor had it well-intentioned people removed his helmet while he was lying on the field, not knowing the extent of his injuries). It made him a quadriplegic.

He went through Hell for a few years--in and out of the hospital (mostly "in"). He eventually passed away.

This wasn't some clip to the face--that stomp could have broken the women's neck. That fucking SOB needs to be brought up on charges of attempted murder. I doubt he could claim "self defense."

27. He is a dangerous character.
From the full video, you can see that she was already lying on the ground -- lying still on the ground, and then as she lay there, he came up to her like a lion to a kill and stomped his foot on her.

This is shocking! That man was actually beating up on someone who had already given up. what a bully. what a monster.

12. WTF!!
How come Rand Paul's people didn't do anything?? They were right there! :grr:

If I were that woman in this situation, I would be bawling hysterically and not calmly relating to the camera about the MOB of inhumane freaks who just attacked me! This is outrageous. Please tell me Rand's people responded to this.

Was it illegal for her to be there?

14. Too Bad She Missed a Great Chance to Sucker Punch the Lout in the Nuts
That would have given the Rand Paul thug pause to reconsider his violent approach.

18. Ugly, ugly Americans. We are learning firsthand how the Nazi's took over Germany.
They were completely freaking out over a protester. They are sick people and they are everywhere among us. This is republican/right-wing politics getting unmasked.

Very brave woman. Probably didn't expect everyone to act like such imbiciles.

19. Notice
how these 'newspeople' language their report of this assault. "The woman 'claimed' to be" is a big clue that they're focusing on this woman and her actions, rather than focusing on the three big men who forcibly dragged her to the ground and stomped her.

I am deeply saddened by the behavior of these 'citizens' of the United States. And, how can ANYONE support Rand Paul after his disingenuous disclaimer about this event?!

20. More evidence that the "Tea Party movement"
is just a fancy label for a bunch of old losers who'd like to vent their frustrations with their own lives by beating up people who are different than they are.

33. "Newspeople" with an agenda. Nice how they try to slime the victim
by inferring that the police were questioning her because of HER actions.

24. What she did was civil and legal. What that buttfrog did was assault and decidedly uncivil. More
shame on Rand Paul for his weak unfocused comment on incivility, especialy when it is 80% tea bag derived.

26. Wonder why no interviews with her so far?
I hope she's all over the place stating her case and calling on the fools who did this to her to do the same.

30. K&R. This is horrendous.
It's getting mighty scary out there. And this footage has gone viral, is the lead story on all the political shows. Rand Paul sure has some 'splainin' to do. I saw the clip of his official comment on this and he really blew it. This isn't going away anytime soon... x(
