The video represents a singularly disgusting display of heartless ignorance on the part of the screw-nobs who are gettin' in the poor guy's face.

But, that said, can anyone put this scene in context? Is the guy on the ground genuinely suffering from Parkinsons? Was he sitting there with his sign when the punks from teabagland approached? Or did he sit down in front of them, to provoke them? If he sat down in front of them, did he walk, use crutches, or a wheelchair -- in other words, was his condition visible to anyone? In other other words is it possible that the teafarts assumed that the guy was a fraud and were harrassing him as much for that reason as anything else?

I'm not asking facetiously. If the men in the video had more reasons to believe the guy is ill than not, then they really need to be identified and held up to public ridicule and shame. I don't think what they did was illegal, but it is clearly immoral, beneath all contempt, and worthy of Archelochean justice. (Archelochus, the Greek, wrote a satire so biting, humiliating, and harsh that his target hanged himself on reading it.)

On the other hand, if the guy on the ground is not a sufferer from Parkinsons, the same treatment should be afforded him.

I admit to being a little skeptical -- but only because it is very hard for me to accept the kind of behavior these scumbags are exhibiting IF they believed they were attacking a sick man. (Note, please, that, regardless of the man's condition, his assailants are very clearly just that, scumbags.)

him, and yes the guy made a public apology after his assholishness was videod and made public for all the world to see.
Nuf said..these people have nothing to do with "social welfare". It's something they disdain to touch with a ten foot pole.

so the whole crowd harrassing him are worse than assholes. They are the worst sort of ugly, heartless s.o.b.s and not just the miserable clods who actually assaulted him verbally, but everybody in that crowd, every so-called "man" deserves to be identified as the callow, evil, hate spewing, ignorant, bullying coward they are. Pictures, names, addresses. If this were a civilized Country, they'd be scorned and spit at everywhere they went. If this were a Christian Country, they'd be used as examples of sinful, anti-christian behavior and preachers would warn parents not to let their children emulate such hateful, mean spirited people.

If I knew any of them, I'd speak to them once to tell them how low and vile they are and then never say another word to them. Even thinking about that kind of behavior, that kind of contemptible heartlessness makes me want to take a baseball bat to some of their empty skulls.

Thanks for the info. And I hope the asshole who "apologized" rots in a teaparty hell, where dark and slimey souls his attack each other in an eternal melee of hatred and pain.

...they are the ones receiving it.

teabaggere are truly detestable people. That man probablw worked hard his whole life!

PEACE!

...truly detestable people!

PEACE!
