KTLA-TV: A 65-year-old man had his finger bitten off Wednesday evening at a health care rally in California.

About 100 protesters sponsored by MoveOn.org were having a rally supporting health care reform. A group of anti-health care reform protesters formed across the street.

A witness from the scene says a man was walking through the anti-reform group to get to the pro-reform side when he got into an altercation with the 65-year-old, who opposes health care reform.

The 65-year-old was apparently aggressive and hit the other man, who then retaliated by biting off his attacker's pinky

Remember, Obama said “Get in their face”. Now his Obamathugs are resorting to violence.

Obama voter bites off finger of senior citizen?

[domenad]

That must be some kind of reflex, because it happens too often in fights to be a conscious action.

[massgopguy]

That’s “Maiming”. 3-5 yrs.

The more the left is confronted, the MORE violent they will become.

Let’s send this to the committee and see if the government deems this worthy of medical attention. I say it would be cheaper to slap a bandaid on the nub and send him home.

[RummyChick]

that doesn’t even make sense to me. They must have meant to give the pro reform side instead of get the pro-reform side.

[dblshot]

Throwing red meat to the mob! Now here's a thought. If a 65 year old asks for his finger to be reattached under ObamaCare, will the bureaucrat in charge take into account which side bit and which was bitten. Would that finger be considered to have lived it's useful life and be and the senior be, shall we say, given the finger?

[Doogle]

only if it's prosecuted....

They must have meant to give the pro reform side instead of get the pro-reform side.

..no, they got it right...the 65 year old got his finger tossed while the pro-reformer (thug) was "walking through" the anti-Odumbo agenda people

[RummyChick]

I understand that part...but you don’t walk through the anti side to GET the pro side. It doesnt make sense.

Don't forget the obligatory pain pill Obama said he could have!

[Doogle]

It doesnt make sense.

..it does when your looking to cause trouble...there's no one to bite when your amongst your friends...unless you've missed breakfast
