Overkill Moment: McCain Protestor Gets Tackled

So, I’m clearly not a fan of John McCain and I’m certainly no fan of the wacky, liberal protesters that seem to protest everything accept what really matters in life. However, even I, after watching this clip, felt that the action taken on the part of the McCain guards was way over the top and with much more force than necessary. Nobody was threatening McCain. It was a woman, I THINK (gender does need to be confirmed as with most of the liberal protesters) chanting, walking towards McCain, and holding a sign and two men came rushing at her and tackled her to the ground. Can we say overkill?

Actually, just one guy tackled her to the ground.

And he didn't really tackle her. I think she lost her balance and he helped break her fall.

Didn't look like a "tackle" to me. Seemed that the person purposely fell backwards while being "herded" away from McCain. Usual and customary MSM BULLSH!T.

Yeah, if she was tackled, she would have been mad. She lost her balance while being directed backward.

The guy was just moving her out of the way and she basically sat down. There was no tackling involved.

I watched the video and didn't see a "tackle". I saw them pushing her back and I believe she AND the security guy tripped on the curb.

Leftist whackos are well know for throwing stuff (including urine) on people if they can get close enough. I don't blame them for reacting quickly to keep her out of McCain's face.

I wish McCain would go away. I have no dog in that fight.

This article is lib BS. This man/woman rushed a sitting Senator and tried to provoke this response. The body guard was just pushing her back and he/she clearly does something with her feet to get them to tumble. Rules for Radicals tactics.

And I have no one to vote for. How does the Buckley Rule apply when your choice is between an Overt Communist Democrat and a Covert Communist Democrat?
