OUTRAGE: Santorum Handlers, Police Shove Democratic Presidential Candidate Vermin Supreme In NH

Future U.S. President Vermin Supreme unwittingly became part of a scuffle involving Rick Santorum supporters, Santorum’s handlers, local police, and Occupy protesters outside a Manchester, New Hampshire sports bar. Vermin’s media director was allegedly injured in the melee after being shoved to the ground.

In the video, Vermin Supreme can be seen being pushed back into what appears to be a parking lot by a man wearing a “Manchester Police” jacket. Vermin can be heard saying, “I didn’t do anything. I was being pushed.”

The crowd erupts into chants of “Shame! Shame!” as Santorum and his crew continue to walk away. Many are carrying Occupy signs (Vermin Supreme has been an active Occupier), some are holding cameras and snapping pictures. The crowd, using a human mic, then yells “We don’t want you bigot in our town. New Hampshire is a friendly place. Bigots go home!”
