Stuff happens
Incident at Allen Campaign Stop in Charlottesville 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.
Senator Allen went back into a conference room and after the man was removed from the building, we were able to talk to Allen and asked him what he thought of the incident. He responded saying stuff like that happens.
Yep, stuff happens.
I hope the good people of Virginia are paying attention.
