Man’s Finger Bitten Off in Scuffle at Health Care Rally
THOUSAND OAKS — A 65-year-old man had his finger bitten off Wednesday evening at a health care rally in Thousand Oaks, according to the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department.
Sheriff’s investigators were called to Hillcrest and Lynn Road at 7:26 p.m.
About 100 protesters sponsored by MoveOn.org were having a rally supporting health care reform. A group of anti-health care reform protesters formed across the street.
A witness from the scene says a man was walking through the anti-reform group to get to the pro-reform side when he got into an altercation with the 65-year-old, who opposes health care reform.
The 65-year-old was apparently aggressive and hit the other man, who then retaliated by biting off his attacker’s pinky, according to Karoli from DrumsnWhistles, who attended the rally.
That is, the MoveOn.org guy bit the finger off the guy. Why punch back a senior citizen when you can resort to cannibalism instead?
We are unable to determine if under ObamaCare’s Complete Lives System this elderly man would qualify for finger-reattachment surgery.
Hungry for healthcare is the best post title for this story, while Confederate Yankee‘s commenter manages to work in a Big Lebowski reference,
Donny: Are these the Nazis, Walter?
Walter Sobchak: No, Donny, these men are nihilists, there’s nothing to be afraid of.
After all, it’s all a media conspiracy to make Obama look bad…that is, as long as you don’t remember Obama’s marching orders
Obama: “They Bring a Knife…We Bring a Gun”
Obama to His Followers: “Get in Their Faces!”
Obama on ACORN Mobs: “I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I’m angry!”
Obama To His Mercenary Army: “Hit Back Twice As Hard”
MoveOn.org says the finger-biting is “regrettable.”
