Tim Profitt -- the former Rand Paul volunteer who stomped on the head of a MoveOn activist -- told told local CBS station WKYT that he wants an apology from the woman he stomped and that she started the whole thing. "I don't think it's that big of a deal," Profitt said. "I would like for her to apologize to me to be honest with you." Profitt also blamed the incident on his back pain. Footage shows that Profitt stomped down on Lauren Valle's head, neck and shoulder while she was being restrained by another man with her shoulder on the street and her head on the curb.TPJ: The only thing that's almost as bad as the head stomping is that he is blaming the victim but that's classic behavior by many conservatives. They blame the poor for being in that situation, they blame the sick for being without health care and they blame everything internationally on everyone else. Of course he'd think stomping on someone and assaulting them is "no big deal." He also wants an apology from her!!!!
The Tea Party Republicans have been going around all summer intimidating and pushing people around. Then he claims that it was his back pain that made him do it. Whatever happened to the Republican refrain of "taking personal responsibility??" I find it amazing that he gave this lady a concussion and back pain but then says we should go easy on him because of his back pain!! What a selfish, arrogant asshole. His back must not be hurting too much though if he has enough flexibility, strength and dexterity to stomp on someone's head, neck and back!!
Then there's the fact that he's a grown adult male stomping on a woman!! Whatever happened to the supposedly conservative value of honoring women and treating them with respect??? The conservatives cry that when the issue of pornography comes up but apparently some of them are fine with stomping on a woman's head??? The other aspect to this story that makes me angry is that the media barely covered it. I guess violence on women isn't important anymore??? Has everyone lost their goddamn mind?!!

Profit's complaint is almost as legit.as the "Twinkie" reaction that leads to killing someone. LAME!
Or the defense of "God made me do it" (rolls eyes). This guy is nothing but mean, nasty, hateful person who takes joy in other peoples' misery and pain. That's what I call a sociopath.
