Ron Paul Lunatics

Sean returns to his hotel after crazy Ron Paul protesters rallied outside of a restaurant he was visiting in Manchester, New Hampshire.

--my comments--

According to Ron Paul forums, about 200 Paul supporters were part of this attack on Sean. They claim they were only throwing snowballs but the videos make it clear they were throwing bottles and other items other than snowballs.

Warning, foul language by Paul supporters.

Losers!!!!!!!!!

Ehhhh, they're just a bunch of overenthusiastic college kids. They tend to get vocal and obnoxious when agitated. Just imagine how excited they'll get as they are leaned on more and more to pay us baby boomers our social security benefits.

Still, they were overly intimidating to Mr. Hannity. As soon as he got touched, Sean probably had cause for legal action..I doubt he will take advantage of it, and I'd be disappointed if he did.

He was unnecessarily taking the heat for Fox News' decision to exclude Ron Paul from the Fox Republican Candidate Forum last night. In recent months, Sean has given Paul more airtime than anyone else in broadcast media, or at least Sean says so.

Why, no one is defending Hannity, nor did anyone in a post, using words thow snowballs, rocks, or bottles. There is a big difference between the two.

[Grunthor]

Typical of the kook fringe.

You’re simply taking an isolated incident and making into something it’s not. Many of the Paul supporters have condemned this.

[murphE]

I think it was rocks, not bottles they were throwing because around 1 minute in you can hear one guy yell “stop throwing rocks, throw snow”.

I listened. I heard "Hey, stop throwing stuff, stop throwing snow." But "rocks" certainly adds more drama.

[mnehring]

I think this has left isolated a long time ago, every day there is something new... heck, you are always complaining about all these ‘bashing’ threads, but there has to be an event or a connection to actually base it on.

Normal people like you appear by all accounts to be the exception to the rule in this ‘rEVOLution’

[SJackson]

Ping They’ve started taking the rEVOLution to another level.

Well you have the Ron Paul Sturmabteilung incident with Rudy on the ferry, no he doesn't deserve to be thrown off, and the Ron Paul Sturmabteilung incident barring Huckabee from his headquarters, and not this.

Classic supression of political speech.

Go Ron Go!

[Grunthor]

“Hannity airbrushed the number 3 candidate out of existence.”

He has that kind of power?

[Steve_Seattle]

My son (25) apparently supports Ron Paul, and he's not a truther or a white supremacist. My interpretation is war fatigue; these kids are not used to things playing out over a long time. If the Iraq war had ended satisfactorily within the first year or so, I don't think the RP phenomenon would have happened.

I think these kids are stressed out by the war, its human and economic cost, and are becoming isolationist as a result.

[SJackson]

Seriously they should all be charged with assault.

That should have happened after the Giuliani incident. Or after the Huckabee incident.

“what a jackass”

He still is; but now we should feel sorry for him?

Any reason to start a Paul bashing thread. Why is this in breaking news, anyway? I would hardly consider this nonsense breaking news.

[torchthemummy]

As far as I am concerned Ron Paul supporters are the libertarian equivalent of the Green Peace activists that accost you in any liberal city such as NYC, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia etc. Both groups show little respect for the average American temperment with their in-your-face approach. It not only turns people off but completely repels them from even considering either group's message.

Actually I'll give Green Peace some credit - they are overzealous and stand in your way attempting to get you to sign their petition/join but if you say "Sorry" they just turn to the next person. They don't scream and shout.

I believe “these kids”, and alot of other Americans, are stressed out by having their elected elitist representatives in government selling out our freedoms, one, by one. They are tired of these CFR members selling our republic down the river.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Just like Democrats, they are so tolerant and loving, and they care about you so much, that if you don’t agree with them, they have no chioce but to beat you to a pulp.

[jmc813]

and his supporters are losers, trash and the dreads of society.

"Dreads"?

[rfp1234]

videos make it clear they were throwing bottles and other items other than snowballs.

Hopefully, the "other items" were not similar to those commonly thrown by less-evolved primates.

Sure Fox News does suck, but I don’t act like a moron and physically harass the pundits.
