The article reads that she is a member of MoveOn.Org, which leads me to believe she had a pre-existing head injury. "No damage, no foul!"

Did the victim self-identify as a woman or is this pure conjecture by the press? Look closely.
Jokes aside, this was kind of a nasty little incident. She's there to express her political views just like everyone else (okay, more sarcastically than everyone else, but so what?), and she ends ups getting tackled to ground and pinned by one guy while another guy stomps on her. Watch it here:

She should be relieved they didnt try to teabag her, like in the West Virginia incident.
In case you thought this couldn't be flipped around to turn the girl who got beat up into the bad guy...

I love irony. The guy that body slams the woman is wearing a button that says:
Finally, the question about the violence of the Tea Party members can be answered.

It was way out of line, but she did go in disguise to disrupt the rally and get her picture taken, so mission accomplished.
This is an embarrassment to America! One of our freedom/values we represent to the world and this incident takes place for everyone to see.quote:Originally posted by TheMeInTeam:

The fact that this happened to anyone in this country is abhorent, but so is this farcical leap to conclusion about an entire group of people based on a single incident.
To a RepubTeaCon, farce, with or without fact, is beyond refudiation. See Death Panel.
'Death panels' were dropped from the bill.
So if not true, why drop them?

Not true and not true.

I stand corrected. The senate voted them out, the house back in.
If the doctor does not convince the family to decide on grandma, he doesn't get paid.
quote:Another issue, Dr. Johnson noted, is the fact that payments to doctors for such counseling are tied to whether or not the patient and family actually follows through with the end-of-life care plan set forth during a consultation. If a patient were to change his or her mind, in other words, the doctor would not be reimbursed for the counseling provided.
Please just give up. There are not and never were any death panels. Hospice consultation is part of a docs job, and if they are not getting paid they need a new person to handle their Medicare billing.
Read it again. THEY DON"T GET PAID if the family does not follow through, and, it saves no money.
quote:Currently, Medicare doesn't pay for consultations focusing on end-of-life care. Under the bill, Medicare beneficiaries would have them covered every five years, or more frequently if the individual's clinical condition deteriorates.
In addition to the coverage expansion, the bill also calls on the Medicare system to adopt quality standards for end-of-life care.
Joseph White, PhD, director of the Center for Policy Studies at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland said the bill's defenders were wrong in suggesting that providing end-of-life consultations would save money.
"The share of Medicare spending that goes to patients in their last year of life has not grown over the past four decades or so," he wrote in an e-mail. "That means costs at the end of life are not the driver of cost increases . . . . The whole idea that costs go up particularly because we keep proliferating services to old people at the end of their lives, compared to services to anyone else, is simply wrong. False."
We cant afford not to have serious discussions about the end of life. The docs will just have to follow the lawyers example and pony up for some pro bono work.

Well the post by the teabaggers on this topic prove the point I tried to make to poor ONO about the rattlesnakes that are products of Fox News hate. BMforbrains and others may some day run up on a liberal at one of their tea partys who will knock their ass down and stomp on their head. Actually, you need to cut off the head to kill a rattlesnakes.

Where did you get that information? Is that the slant over at Fox and fools? She had signs to give Rand Paul a mock award. She wasn't in a Benjamin Franklin costume or a three corner hat.
I am I said. Yeah YOU ARE and if you say it it comes from Fox news and is a LIE

Need to correct your post title. It should read Rand Paul supporter (singular) steps on woman's shoulder (not head).
In addition this doesn't even come close to my definition of stomped as many news sources have portrayed it.
I am not defending his actions but suggesting a more accurate description. He behaved as an idiot and bully.
To attempt to paint all Tea Party members as ruffians based on this incident makes about as much sense as describing all Democrats as Black Panther voter intimidators based on the Philly incident.

The title was incorrect, it wasn't stepped on head it was smashed head and yeah teabagger it was her head. You know not all liberals will roll over. I wish I had been there; the dude with glasses who dragged her to the ground would be sipping soup out of a straw today. If this is what it is coming to teabaggers there are lots of folk who may have to put up with your hate speech but can use our fists all over your lying faces and fat asses if you want to get violent. BRING IT ON!!!
I need to calm down but man, you **** teabaggers have resorted to beating up a young girl, and yeah she is a small girl I am watching her being interviewed on Olbermann, and you use Fox News tactics to defend it and try to cover it up. Somebody needs to beat the hell out of some three corner hat moron at the next teabag rally! And it won't be a twenty year old girl who weighs probably 100 lbs. You big bad teabaggers are some real pieces of work. Would love to see some Black Panther dudes work on the guy stomping on her head.
She was in disguise rushing forward, she's lucky they only wrestled her to the ground and subdued her. Could you post a link to the video of her getting her head "stomped". As far as Fox goes, I can tell you didn't watch their report. They reported it, showed the video and didn't sugar coat it at all. Steve Doocy stated that the video was clear enough that all involved could be identified, and called it out of line. I disagree. So what's the beef with their reporting? I didn't see her stomped on. Someone rushing forward like that in a disguise is asking for a lot more than a "stomping" which she didn't get. And with the wig off "she" looked like a man. I think she was setting someone up for a lawsuit.quote:Originally posted by rocky:

The attack is unusual for a conservative rally. Of course, if it were a left wing, regressive one, that sort of thing is to be expected.

Yeah Cage, you hypocrite post all this garbage about individual rights and freedom yet you stick up for beating up young women. You teabaggers need to pick on someone who would whip your tired old fat asses. With that I am getting off this teabag forum. You cowards aren't worth wasteing time on.
By all means overlook all the attacks by liberals. You should get off the forum if you can't take what you try to dish out. No party is as corrupt or two-faced as the democrapic party but their dirty deeds always get a nice coat of whitewash by the liberal media. When Fox dares to show the true story the libbies go nuts. The sissy boys and bully women democraps attack Sara Palin's family, especially her handicapped child, but dare call others cowards.quote:Originally posted by rocky:

Here's a little refresher of past attacks at rallies.

quote:August 7, 2009
Dear Mr. Hennessy:
I am Kenneth Gladney’s attorney. Kenneth was attacked on the evening of August 6, 2009 at Rep. Russ Carnahan’s town hall meeting in South St. Louis County. I was at the town hall meeting as well and witnessed the events leading up to the attack of Kenneth. Kenneth was approached by an SEIU representative as Kenneth was handing out “Don’t Tread on Me” flags to other conservatives. The SEIU representative demanded to know why a black man was handing out these flags. The SEIU member used a racial slur against Kenneth, then punched him in the face. Kenneth fell to the ground. Another SEIU member yelled racial epithets at Kenneth as he kicked him in the head and back. Kenneth was also brutally attacked by one other male SEIU member and an unidentified woman. The three men were clearly SEIU members, as they were wearing T-shirts with the SEIU logo.

Man’s Finger Bitten Off in Scuffle at Health Care Rally
September 3, 2009
THOUSAND OAKS — A 65-year-old man had his finger bitten off Wednesday evening at a health care rally in Thousand Oaks, according to the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department.
Sheriff’s investigators were called to Hillcrest and Lynn Road at 7:26 p.m.
About 100 protesters sponsored by MoveOn.org were having a rally supporting health care reform. A group of anti-health care reform protesters formed across the street.
A witness from the scene says a man was walking through the anti-reform group to get to the pro-reform side when he got into an altercation with the 65-year-old, who opposes health care reform.
The 65-year-old was apparently aggressive and hit the other man, who then retaliated by biting off his attacker’s pinky, according to Karoli from DrumsnWhistles.
Not a rally, but shows how well unions act in general.

It's amazing how the mainstream media picks on Conservatives and Tea Partiers and the like, painting them as violent individuals.
Yet, last week here in Philadelphia, the Iron Workers Union attacked construction workers with baseball bats while protesting a Toys R Us who hired non-union guys to do some renovations. Of course, after its initial report on Friday in the news, there have been crickets from the media.
Let's see... an "activist" woman is put on the ground and has her head stepped on. David Guy McKay and Bradley Neil Crowder plan to bomb the 2008 Republican convention. The guy who accosted the "activist" is obviously a dumb*** acting like a thug, while the other two, McKay & Crowder, were trying real hard to KILL people with their "statement". I'm sure you are less than moved since it was going to be Republicans, but I ask you, "Who was showing real, hard core hate here?"

Now son, I'm tired, old, and fat, and on your best day... all you can be is a teabagee...
We all know the left's plan was to discredit the TEA party in any way possible. The womans plan went as she had planned. Never assume just because a picture or video show someone with a tea party sign or button thet they are in fact tea party supporters.

It's nice to see the whole story.

She held up a sign and was attempting to show it to Rand Paul. Of course she didn't get the opportunity because she was dragged to the ground and stomped on by a group of bullies. You teabaggers need to leave this one alone. All this is doing is proving to the nation and the world what cowards and bullies are in the tea party "patriots" and the whackjobs, especially the WOMEN, who are defending this.
Rocky you need to grow up and get a life, other than youtube. It would have done you good to have a nice conservative woman for a mother like many on here. The woman came to the event in disguise to cause trouble. Mission accomplished, except that no one is buying it.

No only teabaggers and the fools at Fox are selling this bunch of lies and cover up. The rest of the nation and the world is not buying it! And listen Mr. Teabagger ferrellj, you want to pm me to talk about my mother? Is this the level of maturity you are at? You don't talk about a southern boys mama no matter how big a bad ass you think you are although you are a sniveling bullying coward. You gonna talk about my mama?????
The MSM and liberal talk show hosts are the ones trying to make it a big story. the problem is no one watches them anymore. You need someone to teach you some manners rocky. I actually never even mentioned your mother.
