Before last nights U.S. Senate campaign debate in Kentucky between Rand Paul and Jack Conway, a fracas ensued when a left-wing activist approached Paul wearing a blond wig and carrying an anti-Paul sign.
The activist accosted the Republican candidate, upon which she was wrestled to the ground and had her head stepped on by some overzealous and hypersensitive Paul supporters.
Interestingly enough, the activist whose name is Lauren Valle seems to have spent some time in Louisiana earlier this year. And Valle picked up a citation for rather uncivil conduct during her stay in the Sportsmans Paradise. Per the Lafourche Parish Sheriffs Office:
Monday, May 24, 2010 Activists Face Felony Charges Sgt. Lesley Hill Peters Sheriff Craig Webre and Harbor Police Chief John Callais announced the arrest of seven Greenpeace activists in Port Fourchon. A complaint came in at approximately 12:45 PM stating the seven had boarded a vessel at Port Fourchon and painted messages with an unknown substance on different areas of the ship. The messages were directed to Interior Secretary Ken Salazar. A representative for Salazar was at Port Fourchon this morning while other dignitaries congregated in Galliano with Secretary Salazar and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano regarding the ongoing oil spill impacting the Louisiana coastline.
Those arrested were: Lindsey Renee Allen (W/F, DOB 9/3/81, 149 Clayton Circle, Vacaville, CA)
Lauren Valle
Lauren Valle (W/F, DOB 5/4/87, 415 Shorewood Drive East, Falmouth , MA)
Emma Cassidy (W/F, DOB 6/4/85, 3653 13th St. Northwest, Washington, DC)
David Pomerantz (W/M, DOB 8/23/85, 45 Beechwood Road, Irvington, NY)
Georgia F. Hirsty (W/F, DOB 3/19/85, 1114 F Street, Northeast, Washington, DC)
Scott Cardiff (W/M, DOB 6/9/77, 1215 Quincy Street Northwest, Washington, DC)
Paul Kelley (W/M, DOB 2/20/84, 1114 F Street Northeast Apt 103, Washington , DC)
The seven had been seen in the area for the past week and had been repeatedly warned by law enforcement not to hamper clean up operations and not to trespass. Greenpeace is known for pre-planning and coordinating similar protests to bring attention to environmental issues. Pictures of the vandalism appeared on the Greenpeace website within minutes of the arrest of the activists.
All seven will be transported to the Lafourche Parish Detention Center where they will be booked with unauthorized entry of a critical infrastructure (R.S. 14:62.3) and unauthorized entry of an inhabited dwelling (R.S. 14:62.3). The New Orleans Joint Terrorism Taskforce is reviewing todays incident and all seven could face additional charges. (Hat tip: Robert Stacy McCain, via Gateway Pundit)
Valle, it seems, has been involved in separate incidents involving both Greenpeace and MoveOn.org. Thats a good indication shes a member of the Professional Left. The purpose of her presence at the Paul-Conway debate, in fact, was to present Paul with an employee of the month award from Republicorp, a fictional company created by MoveOn.org in an attempt to dramatize how the GOP has merged with American corporate interests.
The New York Daily News reports Valle, a 23-year old Columbia religion graduate, was hired by MoveOn.org for three weeks to work on the Republicorp project in Kentucky; it can only be assumed her role was to follow Paul around and attempt to embarrass him.
The Republicorp project has attempted to embarrass other GOP figures, like for example Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal as he visited Wisconsin in support of senate candidate Ron Johnson:
The scene outside the debate was described as chaotic, and Valle was one of several protesters who were described as disruptive at the event.
Which does not excuse the men responsible for wrestling her to the ground and using a foot to pin her head to the pavement.
They gave Valle precisely the publicity she was looking for.
Ah so the ‘stomper’ has been identified:
“Profitt says he had to use his foot to hold down her head, because he has a bad back. The Lexington police are now investigating Profitt for fourth-degree assault, which is a misdemeanor, not a felony. He says he was afraid for Rand Pauls safety.”
That's exactly what I saw too. She was clearly the instigator of the defensive, protective reaction. The assassination attempt on President Ford by Lynette Alice Fromme (Squeaky) is still fresh in my mind. This MoveOn radical, Lauren Valle, must have been making threatening gestures to trigger the cautionary response.
Most of those people look like they’ve recently gotten into meth.
MY WORD!
What a bunch of LOSERS!
Check out the guy in the bottom center.
Is he stoned or is he STONED?!!!!
Just as we suspected...leftist (or maybe just communist) losers who do not want real jobs.
There is no one more trustworthy than a radical, left wing activist who does stupid crap to get attention. :)
I really try my best to not let an individual's physical appearance influence my opinion of the person.
However this "creature" crosses that line for me. Way over that line...
Isn’t that a contradiction in terms? I would suggest that they are being directed into doing stupid stunts against conservatives so that govt./lamestream media can make agitpropaganda . thus trying to stir up even more violence from the left.

O’Reilly is going to be talking about tonight.
“Another butt-ugly leftist with no job, no life, no clue, and her head up her @$$.”
AND an Ivy League degree. What do they teach in their ‘religious studies’ programs? Wasn’t it as a ‘religious studies’ student at Yale when Chris Coons became a bearded Marxist ?
Liberals love their plants.
We need restraint!!!
Would tend to agree, except criminal information is subject FOA guidelines. And this ugly wench deserves it.
Sorry, meant “FOI”
On the positive side, at least she's not Weapons Grade Ugly....
This type keeps doing more and more outrageous things until they either land themselves in prison or a tenured professorship.
This is exactly the sort of behavior that has no place in a democracy. We let this sort of subversion go on for far too long and look where its landed us...
