Assault and battery.

I don't recall any "Bush People" heckling Kerry during his presidential nomination speech. There were TWO "Kerry people" who did such at the GOP convention. Did John Kerry ever denounce their actions?

Goebbels would be proud of the Democrat Socialists in America.

Dude's got him by the carotid artery there.

If this guy's name surfaces it is going to be funny. Imagine the paranoia the thug will have with his name passed around.

Court Exhibit 1.A.
Criminal trial nets union thug five years for assault.
Civil trial costs Sheet Metal Workers their Union Hall.

Thank God for cameras.

The question is, is the heckler a Bush supporter, or a left-over leftist Howard Dean supporter. I suspect the former because he is not dirty, nor does he have long hair and a beard.

Regarding Kerry's words, I don't recall any of the speakers at the Republican convention saying anything after protesters interrupted their speeches.

(BTW, where was Republican security to even let protesters into the convention?)

[capydick]

Is that Ted Kennedy or Nelson Mandela in the left-side background? I cant tell.

[Walkingfeather]

This rocket scientist just bought himself a civil rights lawsuit, as well as a assualt and battery charge.

[frog_jerk_2004]

I'm sympathetic to a guy who uses union goons to shut people up.

[riri]

how many villages did you burn in Vietnam

And we are all supposed to pretend those exact words haven't been used hundreds of times by the average Kerry supporter -- except 30 years ago in the streets directed at troops just returning from combat.

This guy should hire John Edwards to sue the attacker and his union!

That would be sweet indeed!

[faithincowboys]

This union guy is an a self centered jacka$$. It's all about him,. to Hell with the Country. Shame on this guy. I remember a day when the union guys gave a crap about the country. What a crying shame!!!

[fso301]

Republicans shouldn't do this type thing in an indoor setting as it opens the heckler up to trespass charges.

The union muscle showed a measure of restraint, as baseball bats and iron pipes are what they're more accustomed to using.

The SMWIA Legal Department is headed by Counsel Patrick Riley who has several broad areas of responsibility:

Advises the General President, the General Secretary-Treasurer and the General Executive Council on all litigation and other legal matters affecting the SMWIA and its members

[faithincowboys]

Why? I thought Kerry was the grand ppobah of dissent. Kerry is getting what he gave. I salute anyubody who heckles this traitorous gasbag.

[Condor51]

Every tin-knocker I've worked with over the past 34 years who wears a union cap or shirt has the IQ of a piece of 28ga galvanized.

Btw, I surprised this guy has all his fingers. Mopes like him usually loose one in the shear.

[faithincowboys]

LOL

Good stuff, you nearly killed me.
