Yet Another Leftist Punching Tea Party Protestor

I wonder what Media Matters will claim happened here. Will they take responsibility for the violent rhetoric that led his unhinged leftist with a hatred of all things George Bush to attack a citizen journalist?

There's a number of useful takedowns that can be employed on a person who takes a swing at you.  While cameras are useful up to a point, this man's clear attack on the cameraman gives you plenty of reason to sit him on the ground with his arm in a hammerlock until the police arrive.

Kudos to the cameraman for keeping his cool, but he should know it's a crapshoot waiting a year for an assault conviction.  We'll wait to see what the police and prosecutors do.

Look for the left to claim a punch and a shove just aren't that important when murders and other violent crimes are prevalent in our cities.  That or the lone wolf theory.  Of course - if any Tea Party protestor were to walk up to an SEIU thug and take a shot at him, it would be five months of "right wing violence" stories from the media.    This video shows once again that violence is a tactic of the Left.  And I've got a bit more to say about that next week.

You may want to adjust the width of your embedded videos - it cuts off quite a bit otherwise.

Kudos to the cameraman for keeping his cool??!?!? He should have beat the fool like a redheaded stepchild.
