73 Year old assaulted by Arizona GOP senator

Post Reply New Topic

A video circulating online this week showed a Democratic activist being thrown to the ground by an Arizona Senate candidate at a GOP mixer Saturday, but the candidate says there's more to the story.

Peter Jackson, 73, wore a "Black Lives Matter" t-shirt, a "Jail Trump" hat, and an N-95 mask to the meet-and-greet with GOP candidates at the Continental Shopping Plaza in Green Valley, Arizona. He also carried a GoPro camera, which captured his assault.

A video of the incident on Twitter begins with a woman filming Jackson on her cell phone before punching him with her right fist. The clip posted by Ron Filipkowski has been viewed over 400,000 times.
