VA-Sen: Mike Stark attacked by Allen thugs

Our very own Mike Stark was attacked by Allen campaign staffers.

Senator George Allen, (R) made a campaign stop in Charlottesville Tuesday morning and it was met with controversy.

As Senator Allen was exiting a ballroom, coming to talk to the media, a protestor started yelling and asking, "Why did you spit on your first wife?". He wasn't able to get near the senator as he was tackled by three men wearing Allen stickers, presumed to be staffers. He was pushed and manhandled and ended up on the floor, near windows at the Omni.

Sounds like assault and battery to me.

Funny how a constituent trying to ask a question after a campaign event is automatically a "protester".
