Obama Supporter Assaults Female McCain Volunteer in New York
There was no “proof” found by the Secret Service that “Kill Him” had been yelled. This is a perfectly reasonable and expected finding given that one man yelling something in a crowd is relatively hard to prove. I’ve been to football games where men engaged in actual fist fights have gotten away with it because no one could prove it happened. The hate and sentiments from both sides of the extreme members of these campaigns should be ashamed of themselves.
I have to say, however, I remain skeptical of this story and will remain so until I see something resembling proof. Right now you have a one-sided account with documentation that deliberately blots out anything that could be used to confirm the story. Unlike the stories covering the Palin rallies, there are no names on the record here. No one putting their reputation up to back up their claims. There is no reason to blot out the arresting officer’s name and badge number unless you’re trying to hide details of this story from being confirmed.
There are nuts on both sides of this election. The comments above prove that. And while there is no excuse for violence, until we have information that can be used to validate this story it’s just a bunch of photos on an internet site.
We can’t hold the other side accountable unless we hold ourselves just as accountable.
