SAN FRANCISCO (BCN) – A man who set up a table with political literature and a sign supporting President Obama was attacked in San Francisco’s North Panhandle neighborhood on Monday morning, a police captain said Tuesday.

The attack happened at about 11:30 a.m. Monday in the 1200 block of Fell Street, where the victim, a 29-year-old Daly City man, had set up his table, said Capt. Denis O’Leary of the Police Department’s Park Station.

A man and woman approached the victim, tore one of the signs and shook the table, causing the political literature to fall to the ground.

The suspects also kicked the man in the hand, O’Leary said.

The man and woman, who had dogs with them, fled south on Broderick Street before officers arrived, and haven’t been located, O’Leary said.

The victim said the pair made “no mention of a political affiliation,”

The natives all across America are restless. Obotulism is no longer hot. He is now macaca.

I am almost certain it was a staged attack. The pair who “attacked” the Obama supporter are most likely fellow Obama supporters who are frustrated at the total lack of Tea Party violence.

Interesting that the assailants were described as Asian.

More likely a leftist pissed off about Gitmo.

I think you’ve nailed it.

Once again, the left borrows a page from the Hitler playbook.

SF? Bay Area?

Hillary supporters - making a Hillary statement of violence against disloyalty.

Period.

"I’m tempted to call BS on this one."

No mention in the article of any witnesses to the alleged event, so I'm thinking this is BS too.

Either this was staged, or it was a couple of lefties angry with Obama for fighting three wars—one more than Bush!

Obviously Obama wasn’t liberal enough for the attacker.

The Anarchists are upset with the Harcore Commies who think Obama isn’t Leftist enough.

It’s like the serial killers being angry at mob hit men, the mentality is so far warped, there is no logical argument.
