Union patriots Beat right wing thug at Obamacare Town Hall in St. Louis!

SEIU has been linked to ACORN and is involved with the authorship of the Health Care Plan.
Ironically these thugs were using racial slurs against this Black Man who was assaulted. The victim was just a vendor doing a job and had no part in the politics.
What happened here is a group of Black's beat up another Black because they thought he was a Conservative. Forget freedom of speech with this bunch.

I'm telling you now, there's going to be a killing if these union thugs don't back off.

By reading some of these post on this thread the next thing i see in my mind is the movie "the grapes of wrath". make note about the thugs and how they try to brake up gatherings.
Yes, i do see bloodshed coming, but on an isolated scale and government covering it up.
Now where did i hear that phrase...."divide and conquer".......
Don't trust the Right and don't trust the left, they are being controlled from behind the stage. They want a Republican in the house and senate come next election, don't you all see!.
My 2 cents.

Nice attempt at trying to include the reps. in this Chicago style of politics.
Problem is, only the left are participating in the tactics outlined in Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals.

Both sides have organized groups to attend the meetings, nothing wrong with that. The problem is, its the left resorting to interrupting and shouting down opposers and attempting to lock them out of the townhalls all together.
If you need further proof just look at who had been sent to the hospital and who has been arrested.

Actually if you looked at the memos "Shouting down" was the very tactic the RIGHT gave to the buses of people who went to town halls.
They told them specifically to shout down the reps and to "RATTLE THEM".
I think you need to look in the mirror.
St. Louis County police did not release the names of the people arrested outside Bernard Middle School on Thursday night but provided the following details:
-- Two men were arrested for misdemeanor assault for allegedly punching, pushing and holding a man who was handing out American flags and fliers outside the school.
-- One woman was arrested for misdemeanor assault and destruction of property for allegedly pushing another woman who was recording the events on her cell phone, then grabbing the phone and breaking it.
-- One woman was arrested for interference and resisting arrest. One officer used pepper spray on the woman, police said, when she did not comply with officers' demands. That woman "just would not leave," when asked by officers to back away from the scuffles, said spokesman Rick Eckhard said. She also passively resisted when an officer tried to handcuff her, he said.
-- One man was arrested for peace disturbance when he entered a circle of people who had gathered near the pepper-sprayed woman and refused to comply with officers' demands to leave.
-- Post-Dispatch reporter Jake Wagman also was arrested for allegedly interfering.
No charges have actually been filed yet. Eckhard said police officials will meet with the St. Louis County counselor's office next week to determine if charges will be pursued. All those arrested were booked into the St. Louis County jail overnight and released.
Email from eye witness and attorney confirms that SEIU-logo’d thugs attacked and beat a black man for distributing Gadsen flags following a Town Hall in St. Louis County on Thursday. Race was a factor in the beating.

Dear Mr. Hennessy:
I am Kenneth Gladney’s attorney. Kenneth was attacked on the evening of August 6, 2009 at Rep. Russ Carnahan’s town hall meeting in South St. Louis County. I was at the town hall meeting as well and witnessed the events leading up to the attack of Kenneth. Kenneth was approached by an SEIU representative as Kenneth was handing out “Don’t Tread on Me” flags to other conservatives. The SEIU representative demanded to know why a black man was handing out these flags. The SEIU member used a racial slur against Kenneth, then punched him in the face. Kenneth fell to the ground. Another SEIU member yelled racial epithets at Kenneth as he kicked him in the head and back. Kenneth was also brutally attacked by one other male SEIU member and an unidentified woman. The three men were clearly SEIU members, as they were wearing T-shirts with the SEIU logo.....
.......Kenneth supports conservative ideals, although he subscribes to no particular political party. We are calling on the SEIU, Representative Carnahan, and President Obama to condemn the racist actions of these union thugs. In the days to come, we will be investigating whether these thugs are working at the behest of Representative Carnahan and how strong their alliances to various organizations–such as ACORN–may be.
We hope the St. Louis Tea Party and tea party organizations around the country will protest Representative Carnahan’s offices and also protest SEIU offices in every major city across the U.S. These Democratic strong-arm tactics must end now.
Regards,
Attorney David B. Brown
Which leads to the question...why has Obama not condemned this
outrageous act of violence?
Where is his sensibility? He was quick to come to his freinds defense of late when his freind was arrested in his own home during an evening where he had locked himself out, and forced the door.
He quickly condemned the police!
Why are you silent, President Obama?

St. Louis police officers were on the scene of Saturday's protest by members of the St. Louis Tea Party who gathered in front of the SEIU headquarters on Pershing Avenue to protest Thursday's beating of conservative activist Kenneth Gladney. Gladney said he was assaulted by members of the union outside a Mehlville healthcare forum sponsored by U.S. Rep. Russ Carnahan. Tea Party protestors were on site to speak against violence against Gladney.
