Liberal Activist Gets Stomped On By Rand Paul Supporters

She said she had no interaction with Paul's supporters before the rally, and just wanted to get a photo with Paul holding a sign that said "employee of the month award."

The satirical prize was from Republicorp, a fake business MoveOn created to symbolize what the liberal group says is a cozy relationship between corporate American and the GOP.

This video was sent to RedState by an anonymous witness at the event. It shows what Valle was doing when the Paul supporters grabbed her. No one chased her around the car. She was never in front of the car. As you can see in the video, Valle reached in the candidate’s window with her “RepubliCorp” sign and shoved it in his face. Several supporters in Paul shirts have her surrounded at that point, and a man in a suit is the first person to actually intervene physically. It’s hard to tell from the video, but it could be that the man in the suit was with Paul’s security staff.


What do you guys think about this? At first I was somewhat disturbed by the idea that supporters of Paul would attack someone just for having different views, but if the guys who held her down sincerely believed she was trying to harm Paul then this changes everything in my eyes. There seems to be a few different "stories" on what happened. I've heard she was wearing the wig for concealment because she was known locally to crash and disrupt GOP events, but the article I posted has her saying she wears the wig for fashion....

I heard an interview with her and she kept stating it was just a prank... no big deal... so dumb on her part IMHO. It's all fun and games until someones head gets stomped on

I honestly believe that if she had done the same thing to a politician who has a Secret Service detail attached to them this girl would have been taken down harder AND arrested.
