Update on alleged RNC "kicker" Scott Robinson

[Mandate My Ass]

The Daily Pennsylvanian ran an article about it. Color me shocked.

Robinson did not return repeated calls for comments but this is in no way to be taken as a sign of a guilty conscience or anything...:eyes:

Student tied to protest violence in video footage
Wharton junior IDed as aggressor at NYC Young Republican event
By garrett young
September 20, 2004


A New York ABC television affiliate captured footage of a Republican Youth Convention attendee dragging to the ground and kicking an AIDS activist who had entered the event undercover as part of a larger protest against the George W. Bush administration.
The student in the video, whose name was unknown at the time the footage was taken, has been identified by several Penn students as Wharton junior Scott Robinson, a member of the Penn College Republicans.

In video clips on the Internet, the student is seen grabbing for a female protester and helping to drag her to the ground. He is later shown making a kicking motion toward the girl on the ground, while the television reporter commented that he was kicking her.

When asked on camera after the incident if he kicked a protester, the student replied, "I don't believe so." He had no response when he was told that the image was captured on tape.

Make sure to scroll down to the readers' comments section. His repuke buddies are circling the wagons.

1. I hope the other Penn Students make Robinson's life

a living hell until he graduates. The little coward deserves a good beating - daily.

:kick:

2. Assault and Battery!

That's a felony and I would expect grounds for a lawsuit too.

3. So, it wasn't Dr. Laura's kid, eh?

A privileged little jackboot shit, nonetheless.

:grr:

4. So he is a mime?

He is later shown making a kicking motion toward the girl on the ground, while the television reporter commented that he was kicking her.

I swear they teach the young ones how to do their non-denial denials: Did he kick her? "I don't believe so."

5. Also notice in the readers' comments section the

Occupation and Location of the Repukes. It's pretty funny.

I seriously hope that the woman who was kicked presses charges for assault.

Republicans = Cowards

6. LOL at GENERAL TROGG!!

Comments at the bottom, by "General Trogg" Stupid, yes. But funny.

GENERAL TROGG FEELS THAT SCOTT OR STEVE OR WHATEVER HIS NAME IS IS A JERK FOR KICKING THAT GIRL. GENERAL TROGG ALSO HATES SCUMMY PROTESTORS BECAUSE THEY DO NOT SHOWER. WAS THE GIRL HOT? THAT WILL DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT GENERAL TROGG THINKS IT WAS RIGHT TO KICK HER OR NOT.

MOREOVER, GENERAL TROGG HATES ALMOST ALL THE PEOPLE WHO WRITE TO DP MESSAGE BOARDS, ALTHOUGH HE WOULD LIKE TO CONGRATULATE THE PEOPLE WHO WERE NICE ENOUGH TO REPORT THEIR BIASES (I.E. FRIEND OF SCOTT, SCOTT'S FRAT BRO). TOPHER BROWN ADDED A NEEDED DETAIL TO SHUT UP SOME LIARS, SO THAT WAS OK, TOO. AND 'JASON' HAD AN OK POST, TOO.

IN TRUE REPUBLICAN/FRAT BROTHER/COLLEGE DEBATING FORM, ONE POSTER CALLED SOMEBODY WHO I DON'T KNOW 'GAY.' SOMEBODY WHO I DON'T KNOW MIGHT BE GAY, I BETTER ALERT GENERAL NORMAN SWARTZKOPFF! I HEAR SCOTT HOOKED UP WITH RICKY MARTIN! SEE TWO CAN PLAY AT THIS GAME.

GENERAL TROGG OUT.

Sick of Radical Protestors?
Koch Fellows,

My good friend from school, Dan Kline has a Protest Warrior Chapter. It is a great organization that opposes left-wing protests and demonstrations, and does a little counter protestation of its own.

Watching some of the clips and reading a little from the website (and from elsewhere and my personal visits to some of these demonstrations), many people wouldn't believe some of the radical tactics that many of these maniacs employ. When the mob mentality sweeps over them, they are so full of hatred and a wreckless disregard for truth, reason, and couth.

Anyone who wants to is welcome to join our U of Penn chapter for the periodic updates. There are numerous other towns and colleges with chapters. You can browse by state. Just go to this link and click on "register". There are no obligations and if you decide to, I'm sure that you will be glad that you did. Pass this on the word to fellow anti-protesters.....

I guess it would be wreckless(sic) of me to post this without the caveat that it was supposedly captured by one of his accusers.

10. I got on...

...and posted the following "feedback" reply, myself--maybe they'll listen to their President:

Comment:
Yeppers, savagely kicking a defenseless woman on the
ground--another typical Republican he-man. I wonder why
this young feller hasn't enlisted to fight in Eye-raq,
yet? 'Cause he's a P-U-double S-Y just like ALL us
Republican frat boys? Tarnation, a SHAVED P-U-doble S-Y,
at that!

Give this feller five deferments like ol' Dick Cheney or
a no-show job with a country club unit o' the Irrational
Guard like I had when the time comes--it's not like he'd
be of any use in a fair fight, anyway.
