Union Thugs Beat Up Man at Anti-Obamacare Meeting

-By Warner Todd Huston

The St. Louis Tea Party movement is incensed that thugs from the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) beat up an African-American conservative that had come out to a recent anti-Obamacare protest. The attack sent the man to a local hospital.

In response to this unprovoked attack, the St. Louis Tea Party folks are going to descend upon the St. Louis headquarters of the Service Employees International Union tomorrow, Saturday August 8. The Tea Party folks are going to take the fight to these union thugs.

Notice how there hasn’t been ANY violence at these raucous townhall meetings… until the union thugs showed up. Then, all of a sudden, people are getting beaten up! THIS is the union way people. It is also the Democrat way.

If you are in the St. Louis area here is the info:

Demand Justice! Denounce Violence! Saturday at SEIU Office
DATE: Saturday, August 8, 2009 (tomorrow)
TIME: Noon
LOCATION: SEIU Headquarters, 5585 Pershing Ave., Suite 130, St. Louis, MO 63112

The protest is to demand justice for Kenneth Gladney, an African-American conservative who was brutally beaten by 4 individuals, at least 2 of whom were identified as SEIU representatives. The beatings included racial slurs and required hospitalization of Mr. Gladney.

The link above has more information.

Now, can you tell me the din that would be raised in the Old Media if a conservative group had beaten up a black, pro-Obama supporter? The Old Media would be in a frenzy of coverage if that had happened. How much you want to bet that since it was Democrat supporting Union thugs that beat up a conservative, you won’t hear about it in the media much?
