Veteran beat up for protesting at Clinton speech on freedom

[mac122]

If the report is accurate and all the man did was stand silently, then this was an egregious act.

Contrast this story with this one about a veteran speaking at Columbia University.

If only he had Ms. Clinton's security.

Also, the link you provided certainly does go to show the double standard the left lives by when it comes to this sort of thing.

Taking the article and the video at face value, and assuming that the man was not disrupting the event or making any threatening moves, it is egregious to me that someone engaged in a silent protest would be treated in that fashion. That being said, I wish the video showed his actions and the actions of the security personnel in their entirety. We don't know how much he resisted or if his own actions caused some of his injuries. Was he first asked to move or leave or did the security immediately grab him and try to hustle him out? He has the right to protest Mrs. Clinton's speech, but others have just as much right to hear and see her presentation.
