Enlarge the photo and look more closely - especially her eyes. She is scared and shocked.
I think you read the photo correctly. Here is what her mom had to say about it [Burning is her mom]:
....
KELLY: I don’t know if you can see the screen but this is your daughter and her boyfriend moments after the attack. There she is on the ground before the rescue crews got to her.
BURNING: Yeah, and you know it’s disturbing to me because everybody has their right to an opinion. If you really look at the photograph up close, she is not smiling… when it’s a very small photograph… she’s gritting her teeth in pain.

That’s not protesting. That’s a hate mob. I really wish they would find another term besides “protester” for them. They aren’t really protesting anything except that they don’t like Republicans.
That comes from the Governor's Office and not the GOP Leadership. I've interviewed several people that attended the fundraiser (see my blog for details) and they are as upset as we are about what happened and are also not happy with Jindal's attitude.
Looked like a pretty short skirt there.
“Mob” is the proper and correct term to use.
bttt
Memo to anyone who even THINKS that because someone has a “big mouth” or a “sassy mouth” that they somehow deserved this: perhaps if was YOUR leg broken in FOUR places, you wouldn’t be so quick to flap YOUR BIG MOUTH?
A large number of these people had cams of different kinds.
I’m bettin’ this was filmed and/or photographed.
That's gonna leave a mark.
Good. ;)
thanks for posting this. i’m scratching my head that this incident & the dems have not received the outright scouring
that it & they deserve.
if the perps/protesters were indeed from the iron rail library / bookstore then that is very likely the source of the violence.
i looked them up last night. ironrail.org the website is a sort of a.n.s.w.e.r./anarchist collective. sample their links on the right. you’ll see their very busy & diversified.

is a glaring red arrow pointing at them for investigation.
why is almost none on our side off free republic discussing this in the proper context ???? this demands justice !!
You can definately tell Brown was sucker-punched in the temple/eye area. It’s red and in the shape of a fist. And the way she’s lying on the ground, to me at least, implies she can’t move her one leg.
It could take days to see the visual effects of these kinds of injuries.
I got hit in the head with a ball bat once and while the knot was the size of a golf ball, it took about 3 days before the bruising looked it’s worst.

Yep some You Tubes were posted but have since gone dark.....
Where exactly did the Palin pin” angle originate?
“For what purpose would some in the Louisiana GOP push this angle?”
Considering all of the flame throwing, bad rap and even recent comparisons of McVey to the Tea Party....I’m just as inclined to ask for what purpose would the GOP (and Jindal) be hush hushing it.
Ignore the flamers. I agree that the photo does not depict the injuries that have been described. Doesn’t mean they didn’t happen, just means this photo does not illustrate them.
It’s just maddening that patriotic, law-abiding tea-partyers are blasted all over the media as subversive threats, while leftists scum who commit political felony hate crimes get ignored.
This is unfair, unjust, irresponsible, unprofessional, unethical, immoral, and criminal. And the entire MSM follows suit. What a machine they have.
Palin Pins... check the following:

Have you ever had a broken bone?
When covered with skin its hard to see. Thats why they do x-rays.
Maybe because the swelling hasn't yet settled in at that point?
