Apparent Rand Paul Supporter Stomps On MoveOn Member's Head (VIDEO) (UPDATED)
Sam Stein


An ugly scene took place outside the Kentucky Senatorial debate Monday night as what appeared to be a supporter of Republican candidate Rand Paul was captured by a local news affiliate literally stomping the head of a member of the progressive-activist organization MoveOn.org.

The MoveOn volunteer, Lauren Valle, went to the hospital after explaining what had happened to local press. As of 11:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time she remained there, according to another MoveOn official. According to a local Fox station, Valle had attempted to approach Paul before the debate took place, dressed in a blonde wig and with a "RepublicanCorp" sign mocking him as a stooge of special interests.

Attendees around Valle are heard screaming, "get the cops" as cameras captured her being dragged to the pavement by her red sweater. Once on the ground a man wearing white sneakers pushed the sole of his shoe down on her head.

There is no definitive word on who stomped on Valle or why they went to such lengths to stop her protest. A call to the Lexington police department was not immediately returned. The Kentucky Post, however, reported that: "Police say she refused treatment and later filed an assault report. Her identity is not yet released."

1. I hope she sues them for all they're worth.

Although that probably won't be much.

This is just a taste of what we'll see if the vote doesn't go the Rethuglicans' way.

[indy legend]

6. All they are worth?

But what is she going to do with a double wide-trailer,a collection of Dale Earnhart commemorative plates,a portable meth lab,and a 1980 chevy monte carlo sitting on blocks in the front yard?

[Glassunion]

18. Can you actually get a mullet in a settlement?

12. woman stomped at Rand Paul event

You MUST watch this video, clearly showing a Lexington Police Officer standing within arms reach of the incident. We called the Lex Police Dept and MSNBC to inform

13. http://www.randpaul2010.com/ stop by and LEAVE RP YOUR OPINION

[PatrynXX]

39. I like Ron Paul, Rand your not fucking Ron Paul

delete your last name.

reminds me of George HW Bush vs George W Bush.

Sr was certainly more experienced than W. Didn't like Sr, but would have taken him any day over the son.

[defendandprotect]

24. Right wing is politically violent ... it's the only way they can rise ...

political violence, stolen elections and lies!!

[BadgerKid]

2. The wind-up and the pitch (pics)

[Citizen Worker]

3. The Brown Shirts are here.

[boston bean]

4. Is that a movement liberal I see getting stomped on?

[breadandwine]

5. Rand Paul attacked a woman and his supporters attacked a woman

but don't believe ANY of it because:

They believe in greed and profit.

THAT means they are instant Christians!

THAT means they are UNTOUCHABLE.

[republicansarewhores]

7. Did she forget...

To call him Aqua Buddha?

RAW

[niceypoo]

8. Its just like when republicans attacked and beat a protester at the GOP convention

It is what republicans do when they form a pack.

[AlbertCat]

20. It is what republicans do when they form a pack.

It's what they do when reality starts to intrude and destroy the make believe world they have constructed for themselves.

[skyounkin]

37. Wherein no one was charged if I recall-

[TheBigotBasher]

9. It is understood that when questioned about this incident,

Rand Paul, candidate for the political wing of the Tea Party could only mumble "tax cuts, librul media, Obamacare".

[mymomwasright]

10. Media saturation would be good

For the next 24 hours. Keep saying who did this, over and over.

[indy legend]

11. You would think the "liberal" media these right wing, nazi bastards are always

pissing and moaning about would be all over this wouldn't you.

[yellowwood]

14. I Notice

That she seems to be a very small person. Her attacker is a pretty big guy.

[indy legend]

17. Picking on someone smaller and weaker...

This is standard operating procedure for a gutless cowardly rethuglikkkan

[TEXASYANKEE]

15. As a woman,

this video is terrifying to me. So let me get this straight -- Repugs can come to events packing guns but Dems can't come to events holding even so much as a sign? Is a Dem goes to a Repug event holding a sign, they can expect to be assaulted?

This should be all over the media .... but I won't hold my breath.

[Crystal Clarity]

28. Just checked MSNBC's website... nothing there

about it that I could find.

Even searched the site using 'Woman stomped on by Rand Paul supporter' still nothing, even though the AP has picked it up. I don't get any of the cable news channels. Has anyone seen anything there yet?

[YankeeLeft7x]

34. The Right-Wing Corporate Media Is SCUM!!!

This Right-Wing Corporate Media never discusses the Big Government Policies of the GOP which endorses and ever-expanding National Security State....

Why doesn't this media ever hold the GOP to account for their big government policies and programs such as the Faith-Based Initiative to the new Homeland Security Department--both formed under a GOP-led Congress and the Bush-Cheney administration.....

Not a day goes by when Chris Matthews does not suck up to or fail to quote one of the worst presidents in American History----Ronald Wilson Reagan.....

No, the media will not do much reporting on this one because they support the "Tea Party" and they also support the likes of Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck even if it appears to be in the "negative."

So, no, the media will be giving short shrift to this CRIME AGAINST a WOMAN/WOMEN!!!!!

[PSzymeczek]

43. It wasn't a Repug event.

It was a debate between both candidates. She had every right in the world to be there.

[tsuki]

46. Or a tee shirt or a bumper sticker on their car.

[AsahinaKimi]

16. Tea Baggers

Find this type of behavior is fine by them. This clearly shows they are a bunch of thugs, who have absolutely NO MORAL COMPASS at all.

[chowder66]

19. Jesus you can hear her glasses breaking or scraping...

on the ground. At least that's what I suppose that sound is when he steps on her. It breaks my heart. She looks like she is frozen in fear after they get up off of her and what the hell is with that woman with the bag just walking over her like it's business as usual?


It's all so effing gross.

[Gin]

23. also the puke who knocked her down grabbed a breast while she was on the ground

hope she is okay..and presses charges.

22. "Whatever happened to Kansas" ...????

How easily Nazi type behavior can rise in crowds -- especially right wing/GOP

crowds!!!

Wow!!

[JohnnyK]

25. His name is Tim Profitt

[skip fox]

26. And this turd compllained the police did nothing to stop him?????

Great logic. A rabid Republic in his "heart of hearts" (i.e., gutter of his septic soul).

[carcar]

27. Her Leg Was Stepped on First

and looked somewhat coordinated

[carcar]

29. And is the woman stepping on her as she goes over her?

First the two men pull her down and then the man comes up on the right and steps on her leg.
I think the lady stepped on her too and then the other guy stomps on her. Do you see it that
way?

[ProudDad]

30. I'm waiting for the arrest...

Update:

"On Tuesday the Lexington Division of Police identified the suspect in the case as Tim Profitt, a Paul campaign volunteer. Profitt had, earlier, admitted that he was involved in the fracas. And while he said that the camera angle made it seem more violent than it was, he apologized for his treatment of Valle. He is, nevertheless, "being served with a criminal summons ordering him to appear before a Fayette County District Court Judge," according to law enforcement authorities."

Jackbooted thugs...

I saw these brownshirts in action at a "health care town hall" last year. The similarity in tactics and "philosophy" to the brownshirts of the Nazis in the 30s is frighteningly congruent...

[wordpix]

44. brownshirt intimidation tactics - do not let them get away with it!

Proffitt should be thrown in the slammer. This isn't Nazi Germany, asshat :grr:

Nice way to treat a young woman, too :sarcasm: That's how you'd like your daugther treated, right, a-hole? :shrug:

[YankeeLeft7x]

31. This Criminal Act Endorsed by Rand Paul is

Terrible
Despicable
Violent
Appalling
Disgusting
Outrageous
Deplorable
Detestable
Sinister
Maddening
Frightening
Sub-human
Inhumane
Devious
Sociopathic

[vanbean]

35. Ah, don't forget "cowardly".

[perdita9]

32. TOLERANCE

Liberals have it, Conservatives don't. You don't see democrats running around and threatening to bomb tea party groups or shooting at them or cutting the gas lines to their houses.

Rand Paul needs to fess up to the fact that a large number of his supporters are creepy bullies who use violence instead of reasoned debate.

[Politicalboi]

33. They're his kinda people

[jimlup]

36. Seems to me it is a pretty cut and dry case of assault

[PatrynXX]

38. not really her head but.... she's still walking??

far worse to injure your neck. Okay I'm dead... vs Okay I'm fucked up from the neck down. rather be dead.

Hopefully there won't be too much Repukes acting like they are in Chicago....

[oasis]

40. "Ruined Paul" :The event that did it.

:grr:

[jtuck004]

41. Both guys need to go to jail. If someone doesn't stop these little brownshirts it will n/t

escalate. IMHO it has already.

I want to see commercials of brownshirts in Germany intermixed with this picture -

Not good for Repulicans or Democrats, and the ad needs to say that none of us need it.

[ut oh]

42. That is truely and utterly disgusting

behavior....

When are politicians on the right going to disavow this kinda of shit??? Meh, I shouldn't get my hopes up, they're probably using this for masturbation material tonight...

47. Joe Miller Alaska Citizens Militia

Joe Miller Alaska Citizens Militia

How Close Is Joe Miller's Town Hall Security Chief To The Alaska Citizens Militia?

The ACM was started by Norm Olsen, who the Southern Poverty Law Center reports also started the Michigan Militia, though he was kicked out after touting this theory about the Oklahoma City bombing: "The Japanese government had bombed the federal building there as a return favor for the sarin gas subway attack that he said the U.S. government carried out in Tokyo."

http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/10/how-involved-is-the-head-of-joe-millers-town-hall-security-team-with-the-alaska-citizens-militia.php

The militia movement is a relatively new right-wing extremist movement consisting of armed paramilitary groups, both formal and informal, with an anti-government, conspiracy-oriented ideology. Militia groups began to form not long after the deadly standoff at Waco, Texas, in 1993; by the spring of 1995, they had spread to almost every state. Many members of militia groups have been arrested since then, usually on weapons, explosives and conspiracy charges.

Right Wing Nuts in Political Office will be Very Dangerous, if you don’t agree or walk lock step like Hitler’s Nazis they hand cuff you and tell police and judges what to do.
