Two women, who lost close relatives in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, say they were victims of an assault by a mob of protesters outside the Inaugural – Salute to Heroes Ball.
The event, organized by 15 congressionally chartered veterans service organizations and hosted by the American legion, is the longest-continuous inaugural event for veterans. The Ball was started in 1953 as a way for the newly sworn in commander in chief to pay tribute to Medal of Honor recipients on the night of the inauguration.
Amy Looney, whose Navy SEAL husband was killed in Afghanistan in 2010, and Ryan Manion, whose Marine brother was killed in Iraq, were invited to attend the event.

“It’s all about love.” Yeah, right.
The 80 pound rucksack should be locked and chained to them. Then drop them in the ocean and yell, “You’re in the Navy NOW!”
Clintoonie’s vagina-clad loonies are out of control.
Keep pushing it, libs. Just keep pushing it.
What a hoot! Scary but quite humorous.
When leftists violently attack the lives of innocent people, the leftists should be stopped instantly, even if that means that the force used toward achieving “instantly” will likely be lethal to the violent leftists.
These Ladies should never have to had suffered such vile abuse....what has our world come to.????
That woman is crazy. She really needs help.
What happened to civility? Why did these people feel free to assault women who have suffered terrible losses?
Completely disgusting.
Trump supporters need to start packing suppressed Walther PPK’s . When confronted by the rabid haters , just ‘ pop & go ‘
Don’t worry about it , they are zombies anyway. Send them on their ways
Huh. If only...
These slime seem to most congregate where ready access to such “tools” is more highly regulated, and — at least so far — the violence hasn’t prompted a tidal wave of people calculating that it’s better to break the law and live than abide by it and die.
