Rand Paul Support Stomped Outside Paul/Conway Debate

The media and leftist blogosphere are all over the story of a moveon.org supporter that attempted to approach Rand Paul while wearing an obvious disguise. The young lady was assaulted, and charges should be pressed against her assailants.

At the same time, at the same rally, a Democrat supporting Jack Conway viciously stomped on the foot of a Rand Paul supporter who had recently gone through foot surgery, tearing open the incision.

The simple fact is that supporters on both sides acted like animals outside this debate, and it is disgusting to watch the media and leftist blogosphere provide such one-side coverage.

1 Typical right wing method of operating that I've seen used hundreds of times, rather than condemning the actual act, dig deep in history to find an unrelated equivalent or in this case "blame both sides" so proving that two wrongs make a right.

It's called "Tu quoque" and it's a logical fallacy.

2 Preventing someone attempting to lunge or force their way to a senatorial candidate was stopped. No assault committed. As for stomped, who will you believe; Democrats or your own lying eyes?

Condemning both actions--even though one was not assault--is not justifying one wrong with another. But intentionally misconstruing CY's comment is predictable and easily ignored.

4 David,

Thank you for proving my point.

6 Authorities can't confirm who did the alleged stomping of the well-known lefty agitator. Could have been her own fellow travelers staging their own attempt at a "Kristallnacht". Fake, but real and all that, by our leftist friends! Funny how the perps were all so conveniently clad in Rand Paul gear and simply melted away into the crowd.

I'm smelling leftist rats at work here!

7 At this point, given the left's demonstrated predilection for plants and agents provacateurs, I'd say there's a strong chance the Rand Paul assault was a nice bit of lefty street theater.

8 David, I'll call you your logical fallacy, and raise you with provoking a disproportionate response being the textbook intent of a terrorist attack.

Given examples like this, how can anyone say the Left is full of imbeciles?
