McKinney incident
So the radical right wing is all a tizzy over this one. A Georgia Representative wasn't recognized by the capital police when she was heading to her office. The officer allegedly ran after her and attempted to grab her from behind and she reacted by defending herself. I'm no expert on security, but anyone that grabs a woman from behind had better expect to be picking up his teeth off the floor. I'm sorry, but it's just not done in this day and age. The Neo-cons of course started rumors that she was going to be arrested, practically drug off the floor of the House for questioning Republican security measures. Bull!! The world doesn't work that way folks. I know that's the Republican dream plan to just arrest all the Democrats and send them to Gitmo and live in a world of continuous hate and fear for the rest of time. It's just not going to happen folks. You America haters can dream all you want for the rest of time, but it's just not going to happen. I hope McKinney is nice enough to let the Republican Gestapo off with a warning.

The officer should have known better. If this is an on going problem for the Capital Police of the US Congress why not dismiss the lot and bring state troopers from each state to guard the Capital they would more than likely do a better job.

Evidently it's become quite the joke among the white officers to pretend that they don't recognize her and harass her. It's disgraceful, but what do you expect in the Republican's America?
