The hospital confirmed she got a concussion out of the incident. At one point she was abused beyond what was necessary to restrain her.
The right wingnuts will tell you that she must have bashed her own head against a brick wall
before going to the hospital, that's how depraved they are.
Yeah, these people need to see what a real headstomping is.
There is no place for violence at these rallies but there also is no place for this type of provocation either.
BTW, If MoveOn.org wants to own this girl, which it appears they are now doing, then they need to own the consequences of her actions. If she really got hurt then they are accountable.
Ever seen a tea party rally? There are wigs everywhere, and I'm not just talking about the senior citizens.

People said stop so that somehow "corrected" the assault that just happened?

A man that hits a woman is a coward. A grown "man" that stomps a girl that is being held down on the head is a complete and utter PU**Y in every sense of the word.
Anyone defending and condoning that cheap assault is in the same category.
I just watched the full unedited clip, and she was clearly trying to rush Rand Paul football style. Sorry, but when a person outright charges at a political candidate while wearing a wig, that is cause for suspicion, and if you watch the video you can see that the two guys held her from charging Rand:

Of course, I do agree that it was unnecessary for that one guy to press on her back with his foot, but he was promptly called out on it.
It looks like they were right to restrain her and when she continued to resist to try to get through them to the candidate, they were right to take her down. The guy putting his foot on her shoulder was wrong but was called on it right away and he backed off. Also, the way they took her down would not cause a concusion.
I just watched what Fox news put up. If there was going to be a tape of her "Charging" rand foxnews would have it front and center! That clip shows her going up to rand as he is getting out of a vehicle, and it shows her getting thrown to the ground and stomped on.
She didn't "charge" anyone.
"Assassinated"? Really? rand just ain't that important.
Either way, the Kentucky teabaggers just handed over their election.
They are called the Tea Party, boy.
"A new poll from PPP (D) suggests that Conway's strategy hasn't pleased voters. After weeks of putting Paul on the defensive, Conway now finds himself trailing Paul by 13 points"
"A new Fox News battleground state poll of likely voters shows Paul with a 7-point lead, 50 percent to 43 percent, but also shows voters personally displeased with Conway. While Paul was viewed favorably by 48 percent of voters and unfavorably by 41 percent of voters, only 38 percent had a positive impression of Conway while 51 percent held an unfavorable view."

Sure sailor, perhaps you've spent too much time peering out a port hole window.
Look. I don't care about all this BS going back and forth. Some folks trying to defend this thug's actions, while others are saying it's representative of all teabaggers.
Fact is, what this guy did was wrong. He needs to be arrested and charged.
Yeah kinda vague, he should condemn this specific incident imho.
So while Paul condemned it promptly after this event took place and asked that everyone refrain from using violence, it isn't enough? He needed to be yet more specific, more strong in his denouncement, and perhaps he should have spat on the ground three times after? Really?
Maybe someone will make a thread about Paul's lack of strength in his denouncement to go along with the other 2-3 threads on this subject that have since popped up.
We now return to Ice Road Truckers and will Bob be able to navigate his big rig across a sea of unstable ice while being pelted with snowflakes. (cue dramatic music)
