Posted: Mar 17, 2010

I am wondering if there is one conservative party member or tpot anywhere out there with the courage to step up and denounce the behavior shown in the video at the bottom of the page? 

Health bill protesters jeer at man with Parkinson’s disease

The passion against health care reform has elevated to such a level that protesters on Tuesday mocked an apparent Parkinson's Disease victim, scorning him as a "communist" who is looking for "handouts."

Protesters on both ends of the health care debate squared off in competing rallies outside the Columbus, Ohio office of district Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy (D-OH), who says she is undecided on her vote for the bill.

A wrinkled, kneeling man holding a stick crawled up to a group opposing the effort with a sign saying he has "got Parkinson's" and needs help.

"If you're looking for a handout you're in the wrong end of town," one man yelled at him. "Nothing for free over here, you have to work for everything you get."

Parkinson's is an incurable and degenerative brain disorder that impairs the victim's speech, motor skills and various other functions.

Another man walked up and threw a dollar bill at him, saying derisively, "I'll pay for this guy, start a pot." Tossing another bill at the sedentary man, he screamed, "No more handouts!"

"You love a communist!" shouted another protester in response.

The Columbus Dispatch offered a rundown of the dueling rallies:

Kilroy, who was in Washington yesterday, says she will not decide how she will vote until she has a chance to review the final package. The congresswoman's offices in Washington and Columbus logged more than 1,500 calls on the issue Monday.

Police on foot and bicycles kept a close eye on the crowd that stretched along Olentangy River Road. Several loud exchanges occurred as some protesters got in each other's faces, but no physical clashes were reported.

The scenes were reminiscent of the heated town-hall protests across the nation last summer when supporters and opponents of health reform clashed.

Sorry.  Link won't post properly.  Here it is.

Again, lets try to use one pathetic incident to prove - the bill is a good one, or distract

everyone into thinking it is good. It stinks! Also, you guys dont even know the whole story, as usual. You just LOVE TO HATE anyone who disagrees with you, then you lump all of them into the same category. Your parents should have taught you not to judge an entire group of people this way.

Saw your video. I agree with the last few people - Backwards Typist

and especially the lady near the end. THIS is what it's all about. As she said we need health care reform, but we don't need it in the form it is now, a bill that is so long and that no one can understand, and certainly don't need it shoved down our throats.

I also noticed the SEIU members "exciting" the crowd that are for health care. George Soros again, people. Haven't you ever read up on him? If not, you better.

BTW, the guy that threw the money at the Parkinson victim - Backwards Typist

stuck out like a sore thumb. While most were in T-shirts and jeans, he was in pretty nice clothes and wearing a tie?

what foul conspiracy theory are you - banished

implying? can't keep up with them all. george soros? The Unions? SEIU, E-I-E-I-O? give us a clue, luv.
