Enraged Obama Fan Beats Woman With Stick For Supporting McCain In NY

He beat her with a stick. He saw her McCain signs, and that was enough to make him go berserk. She was a petite, middle-aged woman volunteering for the McCain/Palin ticket, and this big tough Obama supporter took her measure, and evidently decided: "There's only one response to this". And so on Lexington Street, in mid-town Manhattan, on September 15 of this year, he ended up beating her over the head with a stick because of her political views.

Pajamas Media carries the story today, including the district attorney’s complaint:

“Defendant grabbed the sign [informant] was holding, broke the wood stick that was attached to it, and then struck informant in informant’s face thereby causing informant to sustain redness, swelling, and bruising to informant’s face and further causing informant to sustain substantial pain.”

The Silent Majority gives more details of the victim's side of the story:

“He tore up a McCain campaign sign (unprovoked) and then took the stick from the sign and HIT me across the side of my head and face when I reached for our sign.
...
I reached for the torn sign and he started beating me with the stick about my head and face as I tried to stop the blows with my right hand.
While I put my glasses back on my face, the attacker and started down the stairs to the subway. I followed him yelling that he should be stopped. He grew calm and stopped only when he saw that I had found two police officers at the end of the stairs to the subway. I pursued him even though I was still stunned from the attack. I had been hit across the head and face with a stick by a red-in-face stranger who was screaming “You people are ridiculous” (Over and over.)”

Imagine what his reaction will be should Obama lose in November...
