Teen girl pepper-sprayed, groped outside Wisconsin Trump rally

JANESVILLE, Wis. — As GOP front-runner Donald Trump prepared to speak to supporters in Wisconsin on Tuesday, a 15-year-old girl outside the venue was pepper-sprayed by another bystander, police said.

Police said the girl was peppered-sprayed in the crowd by a non-law enforcement person. Hundreds of anti-Trump protesters and supporters had gathered outside the Holiday Inn Express in southern Wisconsin, where Trump was holding his maiden rally in the state ahead of next Tuesday's primary in the state. In video posted on social media of the scene, the young woman appears to be arguing with someone and appears to shove or punch at the person before the pepper spray was deployed.

"A male in the crowd groped the 15-year-girl; when she pushed him away, another person in the (crowd) sprayed her," the police department said in a statement. "We are currently looking for two suspects, one for the sexual assault and one for the pepper spray."

Sexual assault of an alleged minor is a very serious charge. She looked 20-30 to me but apparently she is 15.

Several people have posted footage of her punching and being sprayed on twitter and youtube. The video evidence shows her being very aggressive, confrontational and throwing a punch. Her fellow anti-trump posters are seen trying to hold her back.

The man she punched, who she appears to be accussing of touching her, is not the same person who sprayed her. I am not sure why the sprayer thought it was his place to spray her since he was not being attacked.

Here is the clearest footage I have found so far. What do you think?

Here is more footage from just before the attack by the same youtuber. It does not show any contact between the accused groper and his accuser/attacker.

Honestly? Looked FAS&FOS to me. That same dopey cow-eyed expression.

I wish somebody had knocked her ever-lovin' teeth right down her throat. Would've made her think twice before ever doing something stoopid again.

No sympathy.

She's fifteen .. when I first saw this I didn't know that. She just got a heavy dose (uncalled for) of the real world, if you throw a punch be prepared to have equal or greater force in response. Though to me she is not a threat, and if the guy groped her he needs to be in jail. If you're asking me what I think, I think this is a #en mess the police and everyone are going to have to clean up.

Who would sexually grope a cud-chewing heifer like her! (Where's the "puking in disgust!" emoji?) These things happen every day in America. If this wasn't at a Trump rally, no one would know or care.

It very well could be made up, I'm resevering judgement, her bellicose nature though lends credence to her exaggerating..

Also I'm not the PC police if you know my posts, but she's 15 and acting stupid isn't that like synonymous? the heifer names aren't right.

The guy in the red hat and glasses might have been the sprayer.

He grins like the cat who swallowed the canary.

Our protests are mild by most of the world's standards. I read that a kid was decapitated last week during protests in Europe.

Do people not know that cameras are everywhere these days? Or do they just not give a damn?

Been following this on reddit. Kind of reminds me of another video I seen yesterday of what I call a Quantum Super SJW, playing both the victim and the aggressor at the same time. Notice how he "put his hands" on her. This is becoming a disease almost comparable to the zombie apocalypse.

I'm thinking that if you jump into a mosh pit you need to be prepared for the mosh pit rules. All of those people are so crammed in together that 98% of them must have gotten groped in some kind of way.

Doesn't make it right if it happened, but using some common sense would go a long way as well. Everyone with an IQ above lemming status can tell you that if you are going to a protest you just might get pepper sprayed before you get back home. Again... Maybe not right, but c'mon.

I'm sure it's Trump's fault in some way though so that should soothe a few folks.

No way would I go to one of these things where so many think it's perfectly acceptable to get so close to your face that you can tell what they had for lunch that day, and then scream at you and absolutely expect that to sit well with everyone they come into contact with.

Nope. And maybe everyone else that feels that way should stay home too.

And nobody is going to point out anything having to do with whine and cheese? It's Wisconsin ffs.

Here is another angle.

She seems to be saying "I deserved it" as she is being escorted by the sherrif department.

That student's tuition is paying the campus employee's salary. He should of reminded her of that, and walked away sooner.

a reply to: carewemust

From the video it looks like he tried to walk away, twice.

Now this video shows the entire incident from yet another angle.

The white haired guy has some folded paper in his hand that he waves towards her while arguing some point. This is when she becomes extremely agitated and claims he touched her.

I don't have the sound turned on, but it looks like he was trying to explain something to her, for too long before trying to walk away. Oh well..no matter. Don't want to hijack this thread by discussing that video.

If you play like an adult, you pay like an adult - physical aggression included.

Sometimes karma is swift and in equal and opposite measure to what is dished out.

That 3-minute video clearly shows that the bearded guy with the red cap sprayed her. It's obvious he was waiting for just the right moment. I wonder if he was an off-duty law enforcement guy? His move was cool, calculated, and lightning fast.

looks like the man pointed his finger at her and may have touched her décolletage area above the breasts. He shouldn't have touched her, but I'm not sure that was a groping. Any one see what I saw?

Am I reading this thread, and its responses correctly? She deserved this? Seriously? Working on the assumption that this wasn't staged, and it doesn't seem to have been, if the cops are, indeed, looking for two individuals.

Expressing her opinion, regardless of the fashion, deserves to be maced, then groped? Really?

Is this what political discourse has come to? Some of you actually think this is, in some bizarro world, deserved? Karmic retribution?

How? Someone please explain this to me, because I am, apparently, too stupid to catch the nuances.
