Coulter's goons beat up a *conservative* critic
From Lydia Cornell, a report of some conservative political action:

Just a few hours ago, my friend Dan Borchers — a conservative Christian who is writing a book about Ann Coulter's "extermination speak" — was bodily wrestled out of CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) by four of Ann Coulter's bodyguards. Two of these goons claimed they were CPAC security, but Borchers recognized one as Coulter's longtime bodyguard. It appeared that they staged the whole thing, for they were following him with a camera. During the altercation, they cut Borcher's hand, tried to pry his name tag and credentials off his neck, physically WRESTLED him out of the hotel, and shoved him. Why? Borchers couldn't get a straight answer out of the four guards, except "you are not permitted to be here." Borchers recognized the most hostile guard as Ann Coulter's longtime body guard.

4. My favorite part of the story
"... tried to pry his name tag and credentials off his neck"

Two body guards against one conservative christian author, and they couldn't get take his credentials away from him? Pussies.
