1. So McCain's has douche bags working for him, too.

2. Code pink?

I think the YouTube title says it was a Code Pink protester. Was it?

3. That's assault

[COLGATE4]

5. Absolutely! Hopefully she'll press charges against McLame's

goons.

6. YES, that was criminal conduct

8. I'm not sure that approaching him swiftly with the sign is assault.

It depends on whether she was attempting to give him an opportunity to read it, or whether she was attempting to interfere with his movement.

4. Cringeworthy behavior, IMO...

She didn't deserve to be forced to the ground, though.

7. Republicans LOVE violence

They thrive on it. Beat the crap out of protesters, mace them, put them in special zones, as they did during the Bush era. IF Republicans get power again, you can bet there will be MORE VIOLENCE.
