My hunch is that the local yokels in Kentucky are more sympathetic to the head-stomping coward than they are to the woman who was attacked. I wouldn't be surprised at a sentence of probation.

If you think you are saving someone from assault or physical harm, you can in fact restrain the assailant.

The fact that you had to put that slash in there just goes to show that nobody can even get the story straight.

She is a fanatical MoveOn.org member, plain and simple. She was trying to do something weird and in the process, she assaulted a candidate and was taken down for it. It's quite clear.
She assualted a candidate? Which one? Pretty funny since Rand Paul wasn't assualted nor even close to it. Pretty funny since she was being held down when this idiot put his foot on her forcefully for no reason. I hope he goes to jail and she sues him for damages.

I bet you his defense will argue the Judicial system (the third co-equal branch of our state and federal governments) is unnessecary and a waste of tax payers money.

Then Sarah Palin will post on facebook about how really ticked she is about it.

You seem to be a smart woman, why on earth do you allow your politics twist your mind and approve of a assault of a another woman by three men or four men caught on video???

The slashes are there because some call her a girl and some call her a women, in my eyes both are acceptable. As for her project/film that is what is was.

She gets thrown to the ground and stomped on and it's OK, she holds up a sign trying to get Rand's attention and it is assault. Wow just wow

She isn't actually just a 'young girl'. She is a grown woman who came in disguise (blond wig) following a game plan from moveon.org.

MoveOn.org encourages activists to 'birddog', harass GOP candidates - Spokane Conservative | Examiner.com

The police weren't restraining her, so someone else did. I'm not saying he was right in doing it the way he did and I doubt too many other people will either. However, when only a part of a story is told in a slanted way....people make judgments without being informed of the facts. The truth is this man fell right in her trap.

When will we become a mature enough public that we quit posting and believing half of every story. BOTH the Left and the Right do this and it is just stupid.

Thanks for the compliment.

I never said it was okay that he put his foot on her, just giving possible motives and clarifying for those who said he "stomped her head." She was also not "assaulted by three or four men," unless restraint is now considered assault.

She works (or maybe just volunteers) for MoveOn.org, she was not there to do a "project/film."

She was not thrown to the ground and she was not stomped on. She was not holding up a sign, she forcibly shoved the sign through the window of a car. What's generally next to the window of a car? Someone's head. Thereby, she randomly assaulted the candidate.

I stand by my previous posts.

Looks to me like the Spokane Conservative Examiner is admittedly biased...A mature person would prefer news from an unbiased source.

Valle did not shove a sign through a car window, but attempted to hold it near the window when the assault on her began. What is the difference why she was there? She has as much right to free speech as you do.

Below is a video clip of the event from before the assault on her began...

I've seen the videos multiple times. She rushed the vehicle and then shoved the sign into the window, please rewatch the video if you think otherwise. Did you see anybody else running at the car? Did you see anybody else shoving their signs at others? No, they were standing along the road holding their signs peacefully. She was there to disturb the peace and generally act like a weirdo. Are you familiar with MoveOn.org?

She has a right to free speech, yes, but not the right to aggressively run toward people, shove things in their faces and then straight up lie about what happened when people took action against her.

It is not assault to restrain someone if they are attempting to inflict injury on another person.
