Sorry, it's the only link I could find.

1. We forgive you this time. At least I do! It's actually better that it's FOX.

That way the Pubbies can't scream that it's just the LW press slamming their dear Rand!

[BootinUp]

2. So he warned the police, they didn't do anything, so he took the law

into his own hands. Sounds about right.

[zeemike]

3. sheesh....what a weasel.

He apologizes, says the camera angle made it appear worse that it was and blames the police for not stopping him from stomping on her head.
And he will probably get away with it.

[the redcoat]

18. I'm sure from another angle

he's probably bending down to offer to help her up as he holds out his hand and says "Ma'am?"


What a low life cocksucker. Videos don't make things seem worse, they show exactly what the fuck happened.

4. The stomper has been identified here hours ago in various threads.

7. That was the tackler/holder, not the stomper.

9. Pezzano was the guy who pushed her down. The stomper

is another guy.

Glad you cleared that up I was getting confused

:crazy: I hope things calm down after the elections. I'm batshit crazy myself.

12. dupe

5. I would say when the court finds you guilty of assult with intent

that I forgive. I would say as I put a lien on everything you own that I forgive. If she doesn't sue him she is crazy. If the police don't arrest him they are crooked.

6. Sure, it was only the camera angle that resulted in a concussion.

[handmade34]

8. ??

am I missing something... I do not see an apology in the article... just an excuse

[sufrommich]

10. Fox also plays it down as a "scuffle". nt

[madmax]

13. I envision the dialogue if this were a Dem

supporter. It would be akin to 'wilding'.

[polmaven]

21. Or ...

attempted manslaughter.

[madmax]

22. At least eom

[county worker]

11. "other supporters warned authorities about the activist."

Warned who about what? Warned authorities that someone was exercising their first amendment rights? It's a good think the food didn't try some second amendment remedies against the sign holder!

[Evasporque]

14. Typical Conservative non apology...

"I'm sorry that it came to that, and I apologize if it appeared overly forceful, but I was concerned about Rand's safety," Profitt told The Associated Press.


What a fucking liar...the video show clearly him stomping down on her shoulder and sliding down and forcing her head to bounce on the cement.

Video doesn't lie...what a JACKASS....

[Kolesar]

15. Proffit has "apologized" ... isn't that the same as a confession?

I expect that he will ask for a jury trial and hope to bamboozle the jury.

[shraby]

16. The videos will tell the jury the story.

[VOX]

17. "stepping on the head of a liberal activist" -- baggers won't be losing any sleep over this incident

That's Fox for you, and the caring concern :sarcasm: of teabaggers.

[Toucano]

19. "I'm sorry if it appeared overly forceful..."

It didn't "appear" overly forceful, asshat! It was an assault.

She was being held down by one nudnick, and you put your foot on her head and neck.

That crosses EVERY line.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

20. Did they put a (D) next to his name? (n/m)
