Americans For Prosperity FAKE an Attack On Their Tent at Michigan Right to Work Rally
Americans For Prosperity Fake an Attack On Their Tent at Michigan Right to Work Rally
Prepare to be confronted with yet another example of right wing deliberate deception. Today at the Right to Work protest in Michigan, an Americans for Prosperity tent came down with people inside of it. Naturally, Fox was there to capture the scene and AFP were quick to blame it on violent union supporters. Also, Breitbart had a video, naturally, blaming the tent falling on violent union supporters, with a video that doesn’t start until well after the melee (of course).
But as you have learned, all is not what it seems in Right Wing world.
A protester of the anti-union law passed today, Tom Duckworth, saw a man he’d spoken to earlier in the tent, wearing NRA garb, kick the tent poles from the inside of the tent. Duckworth thought they must be getting ready to leave, until he realized there were people inside the tent. So, basically, a person described by Duckworth as “clearly a member of Americans for Propserty†kicked the tent down and then AFP blamed it on the unions.

1. I hate it when all we have s 1 eyewitness & Fox has video.
Goddamit, 3/4 of the adult population is walking around with video capability in their &^%# phones.
Get the GOODS on these assholes, people. You don't even risk wasting film anymore in this digital age. Start shooting stuff just on spec. You see something that looks funny, capture it. You see an AFP tent, just start recording it. We have the power!
Yeah sucks when there is proof on video and all you have is one goon who claims otherwise.

2. I went to Fox (so you don't have to ) and saw another clip
of someone punching a Fox contributor. There are a lot of cuts, but it looks to me like the Fox guy tripped or pushed the union guy first.
Also - someone comes running out of the AFP tent brandishing a fire arm.....
So now the Faux Snooze guy started it. :whatever:

but it looks to me like the Fox guy tripped or pushed the union guy first. .....uh dude...in all the videos I've seen the union members are fat bastards that are so fat they can hardly walk but you would still have to have extremely long legs to reach under the beer belly to trip one of them or be the incredible hulk able to move mountains to push one around....and the union dudes love the "F" word.

Of course it has to be a set up by the Conservative group/
Because Liberals NEVER...EEEEEEVER doing anything like that on their own.
Just more of the meme being crafted by the left that everything bad that's happened in this country has been at the hands of the Republicans.

Bouncy tale worthy of the DUmp.
I saw another caver there as well. :-)
"NRA garb." ::)

The tent fell because it was made by union labor. Had it been made by competent employees, this wouldn't have happened.
The violent rhetoric and actions of the union thugs looks like a sign of weakness, not strength.

This sounds familiar:
Sure, sure, I know... it just happened. Coulda happened to anybody. It was an accident, right? You tripped, slipped on the floor and accidentally stuck your dick in my wife. "Whoops! I'm so sorry, Mrs. H. I guess this just isn't my week."

Was it fake but accurate? :???:

Pol Pot was an agrarian reformer.

From the Newsbusters video there were hard-hatted thugs with their cameras out.
So I'm guessing they're sitting on the video because it just reinforces their criminality.
