28. There's a lot of inaccuracies in that report.

I should know. I was standing within 20' of that tent when it came down and there were NO WHEELCHAIRS inside the tent when it came down.

I did NOT see the fight, but in the video that was played on the Hannity show, it CLEARLY showed that the union member was lying face down on the ground before he jumped up and IMMEDIATELY punched the tea bagger in the chin. I don't know how he got on the ground but he sure as hell thought that the tea bag boy had something to do with it. Tea bag boy probably shoved the guy to the ground so he came up punching.

And as for 'the gun', it was one of the union supporters who shouted "he has a gun", referring to one of the tea baggers. Then another union guy stated that he'd "killed plenty of people with guns", meaning that he BARE HANDED beat up somebody who had drawn a gun. He wasn't threatening to use a gun himself.
