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.

That's a distinction without a difference, and he's not right. He's ill.

We know, we know. They really only hate us for our freedoms. Giuliani said so therefore it must be true.

Feel foolish? Not surprising, when the owner of this site so strongly disagrees with you.

[Badeye]

How bout that?

Some of the Ronulan’s escaped mommies basement!

(chuckle)

Did Sean tell them about his new book?

[ksen]

Yes, but so many Ron Paul supporters post rudely at people right from the start . . .

Maybe if the extremely personal attacks on Paul supporters and Paul weren't at the beginning of all these threads we'd be more inclined to be nicer.

I know that I have a hard time NOT reacting in kind and I'll try to do better because you are right that hurling insults and derision at one another doesn't help advance anything.

So, in the new spirit of mutual respect and understanding I'll wish you a happy new year and I hope you are able to recover quickly from your jet lag.

Ah. As am I. Duncan Hunter most closely mirrors my own views, but Fred is certainly close enough. My dream would be a Thompson/Hunter ticket, but I won't hold my breath.

That wouldn't be a bad ticket to come out of this mess of a primary season.

It's hard to take a candidate seriously when cursing mobs seem to carry his banner.

Are you talking about a different mob? I'm asking because there was no cursing in the videos of this particular "mob." Unless you think the word "sucks" is a curse word.

[fortheDeclaration]

Amen to your post!

I wasn't a Ron Paul supporter either until I began reading the anti-Ron Paul hate posts.

So now wanting to bring our troops home, mind our own business, stop printing money, end our involvement in the UN, control our borders, and protect our 2nd Amendment rights, is considered treasonous, nutty and anti-conservative?

[ksen]

A pack of loud, angry, cursing youths throwing stuff and chasing a guy down the street is vile, period.

There was no cursing, throwing, or chasing in the videos linked in this thread.

ksen, are the Ron Paul supporters ready to protest radical Jihadists in the same way they protested Sean Hannity?

Are the Ron Paul supporters ready to harm radical Jihadists in the same way they wanted to harm Sean Hannity?

[ksen]

Feel foolish?

I don't because I have no need to feel foolish. I said what I meant and you haven't refuted what I said.

[trisham]

Your argument is worthless. Peddle it to someone else.

I guess if you want Paul supporters to go after Jihadis and yell "Islam sucks!" you could probably get some to do it.

But as far as "harm" goes, how exactly did they "harm" Hannity? Nothing was thrown in the videos. Hannity claimed to have been hit by one snowball even though you can't see him getting hit in the video. Do you want Paul supporters to just throw snowballs at the Jihadists?

I don't understand why you think a Paul administration would just stand around and let our country get attacked and our citizens get killed without responding.

[ksen]

Keep blustering.

I don't know these people and do not want to. I saw their behavior and whatever their points their actions invalidates cause.

Although I was once intriged by some of Paul's ideas this episode and Paul's failure to denounce it completely loses my support. Insane extremism has pretty much been the province of the left and I resent these lunatics calling themselves Republicans. I hope Paul quickly and soon runs off to some third party and takes his loony supporters with him.

[trisham]

Wow. That was convincing. Paul really inspires greatness, doesn’t he?

[fortheDeclaration]

[Where are the “many” Ron Paul supporters condemning this?]

Some members of Daily Paul forum denounced this. I was just reading the comments as I'm not a poster there, so there's no link.

We denounce all violence.

Think that will be enough?

[An Old Marine]

So what you are saying is that throwing rocks is OK when the guy doesn't agree with you?

Support Paul if you want. I'm here to tell you what little chance he had died with that incident.

[nicmarlo]

What was tossed and why is Hannity claiming such. He walks into the lobby with a smile on his face and there is no evidence of anything being thrown. I think the reaction of the crowd is very restrained considering Hannity airbrushed the number 3 candidate out of existence.

That's all I saw.

[nicmarlo]

What video shows rocks were thrown at Hannity?

I saw NOTHING being thrown at him....only heard chanting “FOX NEWS SUCKS”....which it does, and a SMILE on his face as he WALKED into the building.
