Who is this man?
He was identified by Dana Loesch (as the person who called the SWAT team on the Tea Party Demonstrators at Quincy, Illinois.

Thanks to penelopesire for posting the picture on Free Republic.
Sorry, I misread this thread. I thought someone was trying to say his name was Dana Loesch.
He should be embarrassed by this...they already had snipers on the roof and other cops around. So why the SWAT team. I’ve seen many protests in NYC, many cops around, but rarely dressed in riot gear.
Do you have an introductory thread for the story?
And SWAT in riot gear bussed in from East St. Louis area. Nice eh?
Identified "by" Dana Loesch as the person who called out SWAT. Not identified "as" Dana Loesch.
Was the SWAT team called to protect AGAINST the Tea Partiers or FOR their protection? Everything might not be as it seems.
How can you tell he is wearing a bulletproof vest under his shirt?
GoCards is still correct. Doug Edelman has a conservative page. It may be he wanted the Tea Party to be protected from a group, not that he wanted anyone protected from the Tea Party
Accounts said that this guy ordered the SWAT team in to take the protesters off the street and out of sight, while Obama was in the auditaurium across the street. I wasn’t there.
Also, they marched into the Tea Party demonstration in formation and then spread out.
Weird. Thanks for the info.
Yes you could here them 1 2 3 4 speak. Very bizarre and embarrassing.
Im surprised Fox and Friends didnt have this shown on their show.
Notice the bulge, on his right side from just below his armpit.
Maybe he has a 1860’s, bound Colliers Weekly tucked away. Or an Uzi.
JUST now saw this on Fox. Made the SWAT guys look like idiots.
The man in the picture is not Doug Edelman or Dana Loesch - the man in the picture was identified by these two folks as the man who called SWAT on the TEA Partiers.
The way the shirt folds in just above the belt buckle. Either that or he has a square stomach.
Look at the pics and see which way they were facing.
That is all you need to know.
Also, notice his right hand. It looks as though he is concealing a microphone in his sleeve. I could be wrong about this though.
The Secret Service obviously takes the job of protecting the president seriously but first with the Clintons and now with Obama, it seems they see themselves as his personal goon squad.
Maybe a Praetorian Guard too.
Huh, looks like their all going to the library. Maybe they’re all going to sign up for a Hooked on Phonics class.
I’m sure you’re right.
