THOUSAND OAKS -- A 65 year old man had his finger bitten off Wednesday evening at a health care rally in Thousand Oaks, according to the Ventura County Sheriff's Department.
Sheriff's investigators were called to Hillcrest and Lynn Road at 7:26 p.m.
About 100 protesters sponsored by MoveOn.org were having a rally supporting health care reform. A group of anti-health care reform protesters formed across the street.
When someone from the pro-reform side crossed over to the anti-reform side, a fist fight ensued, which resulted in the man's pinky finger getting bitten off.
It's believed the man was on the anti-health care reform side.
He took his finger and walked to Los Robles hospital for treatment.
Police don't know who bit the man's finger off, but they're investigating the incident.
Mike Tyson’s for health care reform?
Well, I guess I’ll find out what really happened from the eeevil FOX News...
Yep-we should "look for the union label". Beating up the elderly is one of their specialties.
I assume the man who went to the hospital to have his bitten off finger treated was thrown out of the hospital and had to sew it back on himself right?- According to the Obamacare thugs?
I just quoted from the source posted.
heck of a bite. wonder if it was staged (dems will do anything for their leader, even cut off their own finger) semi-satire alert
somehow, biting seems like a lib thing to do.
The Los Angeles Times thinks it’s hilarious.

Most likely yes...I don’t doubt their all in passion about their messiah (little m). I do believe they would do anything.

I to say the Left could bite my arse...Now, not so much.
No one has been fingered in the incident.
(sorry I couldn’t resist)
Uh...Well, no. DNA from bite wounds has been used to convict people for years, even in cases where the DNA was collected back in the 1980s but techniques for analyzing it didn't come along until much later.
I suppose they probably should.
This blog has an eyewitness account that confirms that someone’s finger was bitten off, and says the person biting off the finger was a “pro-reform” (Move-On follower) who had been attacked first.

Bunch of rabid foaming at the mouth libtards. They shoot rabid animals don’t they?....just sayin’
No surprise; the left have been biting our heads off for as long as I can remember.
eyewitness account
Libs already claiming that it was justified:
Excerpt from Blog: “When he gets to our side, he tells a story in one sentence: “He punched me hard, straight in the face, so I bit his finger off.”
Honestly, I thought he was exaggerating. I guess he wasn’t.
I’ve given this report to the police along with my photos. I am not heralding anyone as a hero here. I certainly do not celebrate the idea of anyone biting anyone else, no matter what the reason. However, there is no question that Orange Shirt guy was aching to fight, was willing to pick a fight, and certainly didn’t care who he fought with. He chose people who were shorter than he, and he used his voice, his body, his body language and his height to intimidate them.”
Don’t be fooled by reports ginning up sympathy for that 65-year old guy or worse yet, reports characterizing him as a senior citizen. He was aggressive and ready to mix it up.”

Typical disgusting “victim deserved it” commentary Look like the Move-On folks outnumbered the good guys by 200 to 9 at this event.
Judging by the picture and the account, the Obama thugs had the real Americans outnumbered about 25 to 1. No wonder they felt so bold.
