Be very careful...
In some states there are charges that can be levied against ANYONE (hefty or not) for “assault by contact”...Regardless of the severity of the contact or intent of contact...i.e.: escorting someone off the premisis...
You are absolutely correct in photo and recording the entire incident...Any TEA Party event needs to have a dedicated videographer present and the ability to be mobile in covering everyone directly involved...
Make sure you know the laws of the state the event takes place in, in regards to self-defense issues, and trhe use of force...
I’m not even going to go into Deadly Force...You’d better already know the parameters of that issue...Almost nothing these people do would call for that...
We have to play this smarter than the average armchair liberal-statist...
I’m not sure why, but the TEA Party event organizers had better start thinking about security for future events...And let uniformed commissioned Law Enforcement step in and take care of any altercations...
Just a suggestion...
Who's calling for deadly force? A good old fashioned ass-whooping on someone that assaults an old lady is just fine. I agree though, get some video of the good old fashioned ass-whooping in progress....and let the left know that they will go to the hospital, after said ass-whooping.
