Subject: RE: BS: Political Head Stomping (US - Kentucky)
SawSaw, even if Valle "wanted this to happen" - which is wild speculation on her part - where is it written that Profitt and other Rand Paul employees needed to make it happen.

There's no evidence that Valle did anything other than enter the rally in disguise (which is not a crime) and try to get near Rand Paul (which is also not a crime - even if her intent was to embarrass him by giving him a fake award).


Valle should not have been tackled and held down on the ground, period.   Since that did happen, the point is not really whether Profitt stepped on her head, her neck, her shoulder, or all of the above.   Even if he "faked" stomping on her head while she was being held down on the ground, that's still an assault and totally un-called-for.
