Fresh YouTube via coldsnaplegal Tweet:



Reportedly she was pepper-sprayed while handcuffed (not clear in video). Enjoy your police state, folks.

So very happy to see her in handcuffs. So sorry that more did not enjoy that experience. Love you guys! You are doing more for us Republicans than almost any other group, except for Michael Moore groupies...

Come on now - you are happy she is in handcuffs because your cause appear to be the victim. I have to agree with republican warrior - your protests only energize people against you and your cause.

Be respectful of your freedoms in this country - they are hard earned and should not be taken for granted. It is the men and women protecting this country, the ones you protests against at your so called rallys, that allow you the freedoms to do what you are doing here. None of us like war, especially this one, but even Obama just commented how successful the surge has been.

Do you want this country to end up like Darfur?

Mickey said...

Heather you need to get a bit more educated on Obama's stance as it relates to war. He never stated that he supported a surge.

Blake said...

I cant agree more with republicanwomanwarrior and heather...I AM HAPPY SHE IS IN HANDCUFFS. Republicans have far more class then to disrupt the Democrat's Convention. Your group is disprectful and damages the very fabric this country was built on. There is a right way and a wrong way to protest, but trying to explain that to a radical group like this is just impossible!

You are all a waste of DNA. Your disruptions are minor distractions and you flatter yourself to think you make a difference. Someday I hope you grow up enough to see how little you are.

Wacko is the image people are left with when code pinkers do this sort of ridiculous act. We need code pink as americans. it creates a check and balance. for example , war supporters make sure we are not harmed by foreign entities , on the other hand war protesters ensure we do not attempt to take over the world. so we must agree in the middle, a compromise of security and peace! As Roosevelt stated , "speak softly and carry a big stick" Code pinkers please do away with the 60's hippy anti-war anti-american riot brewing extremist behavior. It discredits you and makes your argument weaker. it comes across to many americans that code pink is actually violent.... and that is what code pink is against. think about it! just a understanding conservative putting my 2 cents in.

Hey guys, no need to be vulgar. These codepink people are mostly harmless mixed up ladies or transgender types who just want to be noticed. I mean, sure, they could try make up and weight watchers to be more attractive and they could have a social life. But these women also have a cause. If they say they want peace and are willing to get maced or take a boot t the face to get their message out, let them.

Besides, look at this from a practical standpoint. By having a code pink group that the ugly crazy broads can hang around with, us guys will not have to run into them when we go to a bar or want to hang out with our pals. In fact, I want my wife to get involved. I need some more time to myself. If she had a hobby like getting arrested at conventions in other states, I'd be in Heaven.

Thanks for your actions at the RNC. You have helped solidify the Republican cause and made yourselves and the liberal left again look like complete morons. Keep up the good work.

Four more years!

Missouri Longhorn said...

Thanks for your actions at the RNC. You only made the Republican case that much stronger and made yourselves and the liberal left again look like complete morons.

Keep up the good work. We appreciate it.

The Code Pink people like to talk about free speech and they certainly scream loudly when someone infringes on their rights, but then they actively work to suppress the free speech of any person with a differing viewpoint. What a bunch of hypocrites.

This woman clearly has mental issues and the saddest part is that the her supposed friends with codepink do not help protect her. Either she needs help maintaining her medications or in need of professional help. I find this video nothing but sad and it is definitely disturbing that a group like codepink would take advantage of someone with such clear mental issues.

Bratty said...

Crazy women with too much time on their hands. Good show girls - makes us look even better. To think my dad fought for the right for you to act like a moron in public. PS. Surge worked!!

Monica said...

You know whats really funny...almost all of the comments on here are from people who oppose your whole "cause"...where are all of the code pink supporters? Maybe all of us RIGHT women need to come up with our own group...Code Purple...? LOL Y'all just prove that Liberals are all talk one sided.. free speech as long as you agree with them that is.

Al said...

... we must protect free speech and the ability to speak truth to power. And, yes, free speech even extends to Republican bullies like these posters. Amazing how they view themselves as defenders of the Constitution but often forget about the Bill of Rights.

Monica said...

Codepink is made up of a bunch of sad sorry excuses for women and it makes me sick that they say they represent all women cause they DO NOT represent me. You women should move away to another country and try to "protest" like you do here. Lets see how that goes over.

Al said...

ah, someone else who respects the first amendment... "let's see you do that in another country." The fact is that's what's supposed to make America different--the right to protest. But the bullies don't want that. They prefer fascism.
