From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch:

St. Louis County police say six people were arrested. Two of those were arrested on suspicion of assault, one of resisting arrest and three on suspicion of committing peace disturbances. Carnahan was gone when the ruckus started.
Kenneth Gladney, a 38-year-old conservative activist from St. Louis, said he was attacked by some of those arrested as he handed out yellow flags with Don't tread on me printed on them. He spoke to the Post-Dispatch from the emergency room of the St. John's Mercy Medical Center, where he said he was waiting to be treated for injuries to his knee, back, elbow, shoulder and face that he suffered in the attack. Gladney, who is black, said one of his attackers, also a black man, used a racial slur against him before the attack started.
It just seems there's no freedom of speech without being attacked, he said.

  • Did you right ...

    Did you right wingers actually watch the video? Gladney is standing over someone in a threatening manner right when it starts. He gets pulled off, is yelling, and trips backwards on his ass. There was no assault and the guy walks around fine after it. His "injuries" are fake. The "union thug" is a woman. This just is not a big deal, no matter how much right wing Republicans try to hype it up, mainstream America isn't buying it.
