HEY! Anyone just see the woman/women being shoved out of the Santorum receiving line? (Original Post)

As they come down the line, you see something - yes, frothy brown - squirt up at the candidate. A woman in a blue sweater is pushed back, and a blonde woman in a red sweater follows.
There is a pause, the first woman holds up a flexible container of some kind, and then they are both pushed out.
That was from watching TiVo of the MSNBC split screen. Others had cameras pointed on it.

Just a guess...

I am generally against killing anything unless it is
threatening my personal space- obviously these women
were just trying to do a little vermin control.

Nothing should be thrown, sprayed, or otherwise propelled toward, at, or on a candidate.
Squirting an unknown chemical at someone - and I mean unknown to the target - is a fucking ignorant, stupid, and dangerous thing to do.
You tie up the attention of security, and some other guy with a gun gets a clear shot.

(17,162 posts)8. Agree with you-
Not a good thing for any one to do to any one else...
but you must admit, given the target, very tempting indeed.

accused of terrorism and all that.

Trying to overcome the frothy odors?
