Unions in Action

Yesterday, Feb. 23, 2011, union members. including those from the Communications Workers of America, descended on the Washington, D.C. offices of FreedomWorks, a conservative think tank. (FreedomWorks recently moved to into a new, more secure facility following a number of credible death threats.) The protesters were expressing their displeasure at the think tank, which is certainly their right.

Several FreedomWorks employees went outside to talk to the demonstrators. When one of the protesters exhibited his debating skills by calling an employee a "little sh*t,", Tabitha Hale turned on her iPhone and attempted to record the exchange.

Apparently, the union man felt threatened by the 5'1" Hale.

As Hale stated after the attack, "It’s one thing to be called a violent teab*gger. It’s another to be called a violent teab*gger while you’re being assaulted."

Progressives like to claim conservatives are violent, yet it seems that conservatives are the victims of left-wing violence.
