[Nachum]

As reported earlier, conservative comedian Steven Crowder was physically assaulted by union protesters today in Lansing, Michigan. Video has surfaced of Crowder being punched repeatedly in the face and one man is heard yelling, "I'll kill a motherf*cker with a gun!"

[virgil]

Don’t we have laws against racketeering? Seems like Crowder could sue the union.

[Paladin2]

Is that a name on his jacket?

[Vendome]

Word to yo Muthuh!

Ain’t no fat old guy gonna walk away with a severe attitude adjustment.

I’m down with arguing our viewpoints. Prefer to discuss them, really.

But, you hit me in the face and it’s “Game On, Like Donkey Kong”.

Instinct assumes you mean to severely injure or kill me.

I will have a violent allergic reaction.

My late father referred to unions as “The Great Society For The Advancement Of Mediocrity.”

"Where are the police on this one?"

With unionized police, I wouldn't take bets on what the occupation of the thug might be.

[I want the USA back]

The union thug (excuse the redundancy) will not be prosecuted. Instead he will rise through the ranks.

THAT is the reason that I will nevah knowingly purchase anything made by a union.......................... And that’s the reason why everything being produced is being outsourced to other countries. Just what do we get by paying Union Dues? Its like a pyramid scam. So what if they get you a raise, or better benefits, when they do, up goes the cost of the product, which in turn makes the consumer pay more. Remember when a candy bar was 5 cents and the work week was 50 hours? OK, its down to a 40 hour week, but how much is a candy bar, the 25 cent Gal. of Gas, the $1500 new Chevy? Thanks to Unions the wages have gone up, but at what cost? How far does a dollar go today? In 50 - 60 years not much has changed, most are exactly where they would have been if this was 1955. 5K in 55’ is like 35K - 45K today. If you made 55K in 55’, you’d be upper middle class, and you could afford a Rolls Royce without making monthly payments.

Is there any question how union thugs across the nation would have reacted to an Obama loss?

[wideawake]

He was absolutely right.

But the reason I truly despise unions is because of their inherent anti-American nature.

If the Founders shared one unifying attitude it was the one best described by John Adams - that we should be a nation of laws, not men.

They were fighting against a clubby system in which you got ahead by being an insider and the insiders protected their racket by swindling or threatening outsiders. The rules were ignored, or enforced selectively.

Union hatred of meritocracy and love of mediocrity is all about that clubby, incestuous attitude - of being "connected", of "he's one of ours", of "give me my taste."

[petro45acp]

Isn’t Mr. Crowder a submission (read MMA) fighter? Said so in his vid arguing against the gun control left.

Seems to me, without the mob behind him, the union thug would be at a slight disadvantage in a one on one.......

happy thoughts.

[Venturer]

Obama voters—what more can be expected of them.

All of these aholes are helping in the destruction of America Obama style.

This country means nothing to them.

[HawkHogan]

Unions march with communists, socialists, and anarchists for a reason. They despise American exceptionalism.

Shouldn’t he be sent to the university of civility that the leftists erected in Tucson, after one of their most-favored Communists was shot by another leftist? Sure, the Kenyan illegal was all preachy then about “civility” and “respect.”

[Resolute Conservative]

Just slap him in the turkey neck.

Nazi Flag: Union Label

That is absolutely correct in all aspects. Adolph Hitler himself was an unabashed supporter of Big Labor:

I am convinced that we cannot possibly dispense with the trades unions. On the contrary, they are among the most important institutions in the economic life of the nation.

Before everything else, the trades unions are necessary as building stones for the future economic parliament, which will be made up of chambers representing the various professions and occupations.

And of course, the very name of the NSDAP party, rooted in the German union movement, tells all:

National Socialist German Workers Party

Good job holding your cool and exposing these thugs for who they are, Steven. I’m sorry to hear that a couple of the punches landed and that they chipped your tooth (among other things). Maddening.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Communist scum is what they are..I bet the media defends these scum bags during the nightly news..these idiots represent Obama’s America

[taildragger]

Don’t we have laws against racketeering? Seems like Crowder could sue the union.

And 2 individuals for assault and personally sue them as well.

I am sure their is an attorney that will make him a seven digit man before he is through with these "types"....

[Boiling point]

Can’t we use the pictures to identify these commie scum, hunt them down and give them a little street justice ourselves? You know, just so they will be much more polite next time.
