Air America host arrested for disrupting Allen West town hall event
Yahoo ^ | 4/26/11 | Matthew Boyle - The Daily Caller

Posted on 04/26/2011 10:18:30 PM PDT by NormsRevenge

Local police arrested a woman who appears to be former liberal radio network Air America host Nicole Sandler while she was disrupting Rep. Allen West’s Tuesday town hall event in Fort Lauderdale and harassing the Congressman’s wife. According to video obtained by Florida blogger Javier Manjarres, known better online as The Shark Tank, police charged Sandler, who revealed her name on camera, with trespassing after they removed her from the event and she “continued her tirade and used an expletive to address a police officer.”

With Air America now defunct, Sandler hosts a self-described “progressive talk radio” show at RadioOrNot.com.

In video he shot of the town hall, several hecklers Manjarres says were “planted” shouted over West as he began speaking at the event. At least one other man was removed from the event. After the hecklers continued disrupting West’s comments, the freshman Congressman shot back at them: “You’re not going to intimidate me.”

West continued speaking after a police officer removed one man from the room the event was held in. Manjarres reports that, “minutes later,” the ultimately arrested Sandler began harassing West and his wife.

According to the Palm Beach Post, the people who disrupted West’s town hall did so because they were not pleased with his pre-event condition that he’d take only written questions submitted before the event. The Post reports that police escorted two men out of the event and that questions hecklers asked included, “How about our Medicare that you’re stealing?” and “How about allowing questions from the audience?”

That video of the police escorting her out..and not taking her nonesense was simply a beautiful sight! Her yelling to take his hands off her, he knew what she was up to and immediately said..”You’re under arrest”...Loved it from there on...just a beautiful sight!

Yeah .. I met her once in Fort Lauderdale.

She was doing a broadcast from a Big Daddy’s liquor lounge! LOL

Not sure where she’s at but I’ve heard her on a station while I was tuning my radio and I live in Virginia now?

The hecklers may have started the noise, but think the real noise came from the crowd shouting them down.

I'd say she just lost, and it doesn't even matter whether the charges stick.

She is in for a real fun time in Broward County jail. I had to bail my brother out of that jail a few times in his younger days. It is a complete hell hole in the worst part of town.

She will be in a big cell with the worst trash, and I can guarantee she won't be running her mouth in there. She also won't be bailed out anytime soon. It takes hours just to get processed.

Dupnik is upset at the level of violent rhetoric.

Such a great performance piece. /s

You can tell she had this all neatly planned out for the press: how she'd act to ensure removal, her tone with the cop to make it seem like he was mistreating her--all of it.

It was choreographed.

I love Rep. Allen West. He is so cool. He’s been shot at serving our county in combat so, he’s not about to let loud-mouth, liberal, losers shut him down.

I really like Allen West. I hope the GOP establishment doesn’t disenfranchise him from the primary debates.

Despite her whining after her arrest, the fact is she came to disrupt the meeting.

I am amazed at the audience who did not slap the pee out of her and the other loudmouths.
