“The story is now on the front page of the New Orleans Times-Picayune and has made it to Fox News.”
Rush also mentioned it. Right on! It makes a difference.
Mother of Beaten Jindal Staffer Breaks Silence to Fox News (Bautsch Stomped, Leg Broken Four Places)
"..KELLY: One reporter says that he spoke with the Public Information Officer at the New Orleans Police and that Public Information Officer said that insults of a political nature had been hurled at your daughter and her boyfriend during the attack. Do you have any problem with that report?
BURNING: Honestly this is not a Republican or Democrat problem, this is a problem that a young girl and her boyfriend were attacked and the story hasn’t really come out. And I just want to make sure that these guys are found. That’s the important part of this. There is accuracy in the story. I just think that yes when you do the investigation you do look at the people who were in the area at the time, to be able to bring the right people in for questioning. That’s the really important part. .."
Mom is talking that way so that the local political goons running New Orleans and local law enforcement are more likely to pursue an investigation. Even so she allowed that, "There is accuracy in the story." as far as the people around the event who were hostile.
A cautionary note about the beating in New Orleans; Update: No Palin pins involved
She is avoiding the story based on that false report, IMO.
Bumping, in disgust, to find again.
“For those who don’t grasp the difference between political and partisan, it’s pretty simple. In our modern parlance, partisan means Republicans vs. Democrats. Political can include everything else. Like, for example, anarchist revolutionaries.”
To push back on this point a bit though, anarchist revolutionaries tend to vote a straight Democrat ticket. ;)
“Malkin ran a story about how the victims were thought to have been wearing Palin pins was false.”
Fine and dandy Michelle - but having mob like activity just outside a Republican meeting means somebody (NOPD, the city leaders, etc.) dropped the ball. Not to mention, even if the pair were attacked simply because they were ‘rich’ and ‘white’ by ‘anarchist revolutionaries’ - the only party I know that welcomes such revolutionaries in its midst and seems to actively recruit them, is the party of maobama. And that would be the Democrats.
So forget about the Palin pins...address the real story here - political violence and the reticence for the national RAT press, and political leadership of any sort (including Jindal) to address it.
You posted: “Obama said ‘If they bring a knife we bring a gun.’”
I would like to see the evidence of that. I know he instructed his supporters to “get in their faces,” but I am unaware he ever made the comment you cite. That comment was from a movie (”The Untouchables”). I would really like to see the proof of ObaMao making that comment, because if he did, he has taken political discourse to a whole new level. And hewould have to bear the responsibility for its consequences.
I used to pooh-pooh my DH when he talked of arming ourselves and stocking up on foods and goods. This story shows how the temperament and mood of the country is changing.
I firmly believe it started really ramping up with Algore. The next election cycle brought slashed tires and break ins at local area Republican offices (even for small town races because it happened to a relative).
Now we have people getting beat up at rallies and other events, right out in the open.
What a fight we have on our hands....a dirty fight where the stakes are our freedom.
I only hope we can stand together and defeat our enemies from within.
Look - it is patently obvious they were beaten because of who they were and what they stand for in the eyes of those who beat them. These times are becoming more and more reminscent of the 1960s - except now, I do believe the silent majority is ready to engage the very vocal fringe left groups this time.
Its just another day in New Orleans, the “Chocolate City”.
The “they’re wearing pins, get em!” bit is pretty much debunked at this point. I really hope this doesn’t become another B Girl incident.

Chicago Crime thread AKA Illinois, Land of Linked-Cons.
These druggy losers would not stand a second in some third world country and would cry mommy.
It’s pink terror, and they would blow themselves up.
“...I still say that this is likely just plain-old New Orleans assault! I’ve been there DOZENS of times and I don’t think I can remember when I haven’t seen a fight of some sort!..”
Yep. Its a plain old nasty $hit-hole full of morons. I refuse to go there unless I absolutely have to and then, I’m armed to the teeth and not afraid to use it if need be. Can’t stand the stench of the place....smells like Landrieu.
I never said it wasn't a corrupt organization (and I've known many an NOPD officer, good and bad, having previously lived in that area for over 40 years). They *are* capable of basic, nuts-and-bolts police work - when so directed. This matter is being hushed-up by people at the top levels of city government. That's just the way these things work.
it was criminal , and a hate crime at that
From the NYT June 14, 2008:
Senator Barack Obama was fund-raising Friday night in Philadelphia. But he was talking about “the Chicago way.”
Channeling the mob drama, “The Untouchables,” Mr. Obama said in reference to the general election rumble with the Republicans: “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.”
This was in no way an average NO brawl, nor was it a random robbery/assault. That much is clear.
It’s late for me, so I’ll let someone else start a new post on this development:
“Allee Bautsch’s mother, Della Berning, has now joined a friend of Bautsch’s in telling Yahoo! News that, contrary to what Brown initially told police, Bautsch and Brown do believe that the attackers were a group of political protesters who followed them after they left the event.”
The Yahoo story is incredibly snide and insulting in begrudging the info, so I’ll link to Hayride where y’all can get the skinny and which also links to the Yahoo News article.
