VIDEO: Reporter Grabs Secret Service Agent’s Throat at Trump Rally
Breitbart ^

According to The Independent Journal’s congressional reporter Joe Perticone, the man holding the camera in the video below is a journalist. Perticone writes, “Secret Service agent choke slams reporter. ” The video doesn’t show that, but it does show this reporter kicking the agent from an apparent defensive position.

Nevertheless, once whatever happened between the two men is over, and both are standing, watch the reporter suddenly reach out and grab the Secret Service agent’s throat.

CNN reports that the reporter is Time photographer Chris Morris, who claims he was “assaulted first” and that he will not press charges.





Pansy-ass "reporter" should be DOA.

MSM were unhinged long ago. Their ranks are full of enemy Communist and academia socialist.

People going to Trump rallies looking for trouble are going to find it x10.

Trump event; North Augusta, South Carolina 2/16/16

The protester is carrying the message from the politicians, lobbyist, donors, influence peddlers, the well connected and those with motives of bad intent.

On the list of Stupid Things To Do, grabbing a Secret Service agent is probably up near the top ...

“CNN reports that the reporter is Time photographer Chris Morris”

The press (and protesters) think they are entitled to do whatever they want. Time to show them there’s a new sheriff in town.

There are public SS agents like this gentleman. Then there are plain clothes officers not wearing badges wandering the hall.

TIME should fire this employee immediately and all respectable media outlets should refuse to use his services. Ever.

Here's video of what looks like the reporter provoking the SS agent, as the BLMers march by, with a chest bump....

Here's moments prior. The reporter says "f*ck you" — that's when it got physical pic.twitter.com/h9K2wIbEWQ— Joe Perticone (@JoePerticone) February 29, 2016

who claims he was “assaulted first”

No. Not really. In one of the videos you can clearly see him go right into the SS agent's face and say "F**k you."

What's media hack complaining about? He still has all of his teeth after grabbing the throat of a SS agent.
