Original Source Video: The Columbus Dispatch. On March 17th outside of Rep. Mary Jo Kilroy’s district office teabaggers mocked and threw things at a man who said he had Parkinson’s. They told him “he’s in the wrong end of town to ask for handouts”, called him a communist and threw money at him to “pay for his health care”.
How can these people justify this? It seems as if the behavior being modeled by Rush Limbaugh and his ilk IS having an affect on our civility. THE MAN HAS A LIFE-THREATENING CHRONIC ILLNESS AND PERFECTLY HEALTHY PEOPLE ARE TAUNTING AND THROWING MONEY AT HIM? IN AMERICA?
But what can you expect when false and misleading information on policy are being reinforced by people who make fun of a 12-year-old kid speaking for health insurance reform because his mother, who didn’t have access to affordable healthcare, is now dead?
Please send the SOB a Christmas Card at 2442 Belmont Rd NW, Washington, DC 20008. I am sure he would like to hear from you about how your health care is going!

It looks like there is a reasonable guy next to them calmly asking them to stop (not the guy with the baby!). Sadly, reasonable people don’t get any coverage.
What “side of town” is it? Freedomtown? ConcealedCarryville? Jerkopolis? Upper Arlington? Don’t these people have jobs? (<– sarcasm)
