Via Gateway Pundit. This is still America, right?
Breaking Report: Wisconsin Republican Glenn Grothman was just mobbed by a group of union thugs.
Republican youth leader Josiah Cantrall reported that the Republican Senator was mobbed by union thugs as he approached the capitol today. He was held for several minutes and was forced to call for assistance. The whole incident was captured on camera – Am waiting for updates.
In a related story, via Hot Air Republican State Rep Michelle Litjens spoke to Laura Ingraham about her unhinged Democrat colleague’s decidedly boorish, ”uncivil” and criminal behavior.
Unreal.
Assault is an act that creates an apprehension in another of an imminent, harmful, or offensive contact.
An angry mob screaming and blocking a member of the State Senate from reaching the capitol building to do his job qualifies.
It’s just as offensive an act as being a state senator and hiding in another state instead of doing the job the taxpayers pay you to do.
It’s no longer protected free speech ends when it becomes action that intrudes on someone else’s freedom.
Cody….I suppose you think Gordon Hintz telling Rep. Michelle Litjens “You are f***king dead!” is free speech as well??? *rolls eyes*
Does this look like they were exercising free speech…..http://www.theblaze.com/stories/shock-video-mob-of-angry-protesters-corner-wisconsin-gop-senator/
There is another video of some guy getting right in the face of another person with a video camera just taping the demonstration and purposefully blowing a whistle as loud as he can in the camera operators’s face, just another another thug grabbed the camera and knocked it out of the owner’s hands to the ground.
The guy with the whistle deserved a punch in the face, as did the other thug. The cops clearly have decided not to arrest the thugs, placing their loyalty with Da Union, so the counter-protesters and others may have to take matters in their own hands.
In other words, take a set of brass knuckles and a crowbar to your next political rally. They may come in handy in dealing with a progressive thug.
