Exclusive: Police Report on Gladney Beating by SEIU Thugs
by Capitol ConfidentialIt has been more than three months since Kenneth Gladney was viciously attacked by SEIU employees. The assault wasn’t an accident, but a deliberate attempt to intimidate and silence tea party activists and town hall protesters. The morning of the Gladney assault, the White House presented to Senate Democrats a ‘battle plan’ to quell the protests. The White House advised Democrats “punch back twice as hard.” Gladney was the first casualty.
The Gladney beating took place at a forum on ‘Aging’, sponsored by Rep. Russ Carnahan. Carnahan had been caught flat-footed by earlier protests. This time he was more prepared; the day before the forum, Sara Howard took over as his communications director. Ms. Howard is a veteran leftist activist, holding senior positions with SEIU.
SEIU and partisan hacks like Media Matters have tried to spin away the Gladney beating. They would have you believe a 130 lb diabetic, recovering luekemia patient, picked a fight with men almost twice his size. The police report puts an end to that lie.
The police report is unambiguous about what happened on August 6th in St. Louis. The White House, through SEIU, did indeed ‘punch back twice as hard.’ What is ambiguous, however, is why prosecutors haven’t pursued the charges against SEIU. As you will learn, there is a lot to suggest that Bob McCulloch, the St. Louis DA, is trying to cover-up SEIU’s crime. Stay tuned as the truth comes out.

Where are you MSM? If this was an abortion doctor, you would be all over it!
no surprises here…
Just as nothing happened to the ACORN thugs intimidating voters in Philadelphia, nothing will happen to these jerks either.
They HAVE to protect this thugggery, because it's what they do- routinely. Offer them up for perosecution and they'll be far harder to recruit.
Make sense?
Hell, if Mr Gladney would have got the upper hand and kicked some SEIU butt, they would be all over it.
Poor little union members beat up by the mean ole uncle tom!
The SEIU guy probably had post traumatic stress disorder, give him a break.
Is the SEIU the start of Obama's "Citizen Army"?

One of these days, these thugs are going to pick on the wrong diabetic. And it ain't going to be pretty for the SEIU thugs, maybe even a little bloody. What goes around comes around, and it is getting near payback time. Just saying what many are thinking.
For shame, for shame!
You don't mean to imply that the Police lied, and tried to cover this up, do you? That would be aiding and abetting. You don't mean to suggest that the local St. Louis District Attorney did not do his job, do you? That would make him complicit, wouldn't it?
Well, if nothing comes of it in terms of legal charges, Mr. Glandey has a very strong civil law suit against SEIU. Personally, as representatives of the organization, I would go into hiding, because the lawsuit to which Mr. Glandy can bring against SEIU could bankrupt them. Hey, wait, that sounds like a good idea. Bankrupt the hell out of them.
Gog et 'em Kenneth!!

So the law doesn't cover this? Is this why the SEIU has so many Whitehouse visits?
As the Libunatics take us farther into their Communist Eden, we'll see them exhibit more violent and intolerant acts against those who refuse to drink their Kool-Aid.
Liberals hate it when minorities escape the Democrats' Plantation.
Beginning to look like it is time for some Jeffersonian action. Vote for a candidate and they change their stripes two days leter. Something needs doing?
Maybe someday, those thugs will pick on a hemophiliac bleeder with advanced AIDS, or a Mormon with a suicide vest………
When "We the People" win back Washington DC, these people need to be prosecuted. In addition, the more this kind of organized stuff happens it further cements in my mind that there is wide spread voter fraud going on. I do not see how 41% of the country can say they are conservative, another 36% moderate and yet the demorats have won such large majorities in Congress. I did not support Ron Paul until I read his take on the issues. Ron Paul was and is right about our economy. Go to Ron's website, Campaign for Liberty and read it, then made up your mind.
The MSM is completely racist…. just racist in a different way than you would think. The MSM HATES black people who think for themselves (or ANYone for that matter), and they especially do not like black people who do not go along with the agenda that they are "supposed" to go along with. You see, the MSM wants all blacks to be under the control of the federal government and they want all blacks to NEED the federal government for their basic survival so that the federal government can lead them around by the nose…. THIS is modern-day slavery and the modern-day slave owners are Corporate Leftists (soros, immelt, rockefeller, etc) who fund the government/unions/ACORN, the Leftist Political Elite, and the Leftist Media.
If blacks WOKE UP and started to realize that they are being lead BACK INTO SLAVERY, these elites would lose ALL POWER. That's why the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT got involved when a small North Carolina town wanted to GET RID OF THE 2 PARTIES and let the candidates run on the ISSUES…..but the FEDS said that BLACKS WOULDNT KNOW HOW TO VOTE if they got rid of the party affiliations!!!!
Whats new, this sure isnt. Happens all the time the left beat up someone that doesnt agree with them. Next they will remind us how Mr. Gladney is Uncle Tom then burry him under all the other news. Its time to stop letting them get away with it.
Kenneth Gladney has done much to wake up America. A man that was just trying to better himself that day. A man that knew tomorrow was going to be tough but was doing what he could today to make life better. Kenneth Gladney is an American, an American just like you and me.
Laws are not always enforced justly, we see this all the time. What will be enforced justly is Gods laws and his justice. Thanks for helping wake us up Kenneth.
Seiu Members want to destroy our country. They will be stopped. Then obama will be deported. Wish they would try something with my 2 boys. They would learn quick.
It's pathetic that with such overwhelming evidence by police and witnesses… this has gone nowhere. It's further evidence that "the little person" is a nobody to the entire administration and SEIU is in bed with Obama.
How quick did the airport baggage handler get picked up for threatening the president?
Why doesn't Obama have these people over for a beer and talk about world peace?
Hate crime, plane and simple. This guy should be put in jail for 10-20 and SEIU should be prosecuted under RICO
Is this the same Elston K. McCowan who is running for Mayor of St. Louis??

[...] His lackeys ran with them. The police report of Kenneth Gladney’s beatdown by SEIU thugs was posted today at Big Government. [...]
Most violent crime is done by demorats. Our prisons are full of them. 'Born to boogie' on your taxes via demorat politicians.
Yes it is the same Elston McCowan who ran for Mayor
Who knows? That Mormon might be me…
Big Government! Thanks for running this important story! This needs to be out there…don't let this miscarriage of justice be swept under the carpet! This man is a patriot and his story exposes the hypocrisy and the corruption in the government!
Thanks to Ken for letting us get to know him better too! I hope he realizes how important he is to so many of us!
Who needs Muslim terrorists? We have Obama and his band of thugs.
acorn/seiu/dear leader all tied at the hip….throw them all out and then throw them in jail or better yet deport them to their hypenated countries….
SEIU and ACORN thugs are similar to the Nazi brown shirts.
I’m waiting for Media Mutters to declare that is a fake police report made up by Breibart or other wingers.
As Kenneth is black, will this be classified as a “hate crime”?
Sure looks that way, along with Andy Stern as head of Obama's Stasi.
Fight fire with fire.
"Democrat" is a perfect synonym for "thug".
The more power the Democrats seize, the more and more such thuggery we can expect to see.
I was there. Those three or four that actually beat the guy showed up looking to fight. They would just walk up to people and yell literally inches from their face. I'm just surprised that no one took them up on it, and they eventually had to resort to jumping on cold cocking some poor fellow and beating him.
These are very scary times we live in. We must always be vigilant if we want to continue living in the nation we do. These union thugs must never be allowed to silence freedom of speech.
I was there. The cops did a terrific job that night. I was a little surprised that they weren't a bit more forward than they were. Then it got to the prosecutor's office…..
STL is very political, and quite lefty, obviously.
If those in power refuse to uphold the law to the detriment of the people, then the people must rise up in defense of the law. If we let the thugs have their way, we will deserve the chains they put on us.
That suit has already been filed.
They are 0bama's "Purple Shirts" and we must take this seriously.
We are all "Kenneth Gladney"!
I am Kenneth Gladney!
I hope the prosecution of these people does not track the prosecution of the Teamster thugs in the Don and Teri Adams case (Oct 2, 1998).
OK. How about both his legs, both his arms and his neck and jaw. Those are the breaks these thugs deserve.
deliberately tripping over your feet and asking a random person behind you if they're 'seeing' the police "beating" you is just not a smart idea. random people don't lie to the police when asked about some idiot acting like an idiot right in front of them.
[...] Beating by SEIU Thugs Obama affiliated thugs once again get a pass for racism and violence. SEIU are America’s brown and black [...]
maybe someday the Black population will take back their freedom from the Dumocrats. They certainly have't understood why they are offered the freebys from DC to maintain the party power over them.They are promissed all sorts of benefits but never achieve the recognition as anything more than token rewards for their votes.
didn't anyone happen to see in the police report that there were "no apparent injuries" The rightwing used to be the tough guys but now all they seem to do is whine: MSM is so unfair to us, "Chicago style" politics is too rough etc. Please if you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen. MAN UP GIRLY GUYS stop playing the victim
Isn't that the same thing?
Well hello Kenneth.
Nice to meet you.
I am John Galt.

The United States is lapsing into history
Obama swore to defend our constitution from enemies both foreign and domestic..no wait it's not really his constitution anyway.
Fascists will have their brown shirts and the liberals are their modern incarnation
The corruption and abuse of power by the WH is a disgrace to every elected official in Congress. Election 2010 will amount to voting in a Third World country. This has to stop! I never thought that the day would come when law abiding citizens would fear the Federal government.
Two men, 6'0" 220 lbs and 6'4" 250 lbs, assaulting a frail recovering luekemia patient. I guess this is what the White House meant when they said "punch back twice as hard…." What is this, the mafia? They put one of yours in the hospital, you put one of theirs in the morgue?
Can you imagine if this man was a liberal activist being called the n-word and beaten by two larger men? the MSM would be all over this.
Total abuse of power by this administration …its the kind of thing the old soviet union would do
Um…how many Mormons do you know that have blown themselves up?
SEIU needs to be investigated just as ACORN was. Perhaps someone can go undercover. They could literally get away with murder as long as they supply money and votes to the Democratic Party. I am sure the President would advise us "not to jump to conclusions" though.
Push the civil action into the spotlight.
There are no lawyers willing to take up the case?
Patriots, Teabaggers, concerned citizens, all those who care for America, believe in justice: ARM YOURSELVES. Get concealed carry permits. If none are available, arm yourselves anyway. Practice your constitutional rights to speech and self protection. When an SEIU or ACORN activist attacks you, shoot the bastards. Blow them to hell where they belong. Obama's purple shirts must be stopped. A small Smith and Wesson is a great equalizer.
Where are Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson? Just proves their bias.
Please don't assume we all know what SEIU stands for and please spell out things at least once.
Won't happen often in New Mexico. Had a couple of rather large gents take offense at my comments at a tea party in ABQ. But, you see, New Mexico has very rational CCW laws. Amazing how they backed down and disappeared when faced with my two buddies, Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson.
Democrats have come to represent all the people who want to destroy our country…misfits, malcontents, criminals, sexual deviats…all democrats…unfortunately the morality in the USA is non existent and there is more of them because the PC police and schools breed em
[...] Police Report on Gladney Beating by SEIU Thugs [...]
How much more can we take. These thugs mean business and we are expected to just let them physically attack us? I do not understand that logic.
from a historical perspective it would be Andy Stern as Ernst Rohm and Hitler's SA. Fortunately we haven't arrived at Heydrich's SS- yet…
Yeah, they might just pick a guy with CCW permit.
Sad to say, but the SEIU as friends of Obama and his Chicago thugs will find a way to have this assault thrown out of court. What else would one expect in a Liberal-dominated city like St Louis, and one with a liberal bias in its media. Mr. Gladney was just exercising his freedoms when assaulted by the SEIU thugs. And, to show everyone where the annointed one, Obama, falls on this, just read the following where he calls people like Mr. Gladney "teabaggers and anti-government": http://prescriptions.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/07...
Yea, he probably found out his dues were going up another 10 bucks and he wouldn't be able to buy that extra pack of smokes.

This is pure anarchy and symptomatic of a totalitarian government it is time for the law abiding citizens to rise
Oh, so its okay to punch a guy in the face, pull him over a table by the back of the shirt collar and kick them in the body. You f-ing SEIU punk faggot. Try bringing your pu$$y-a$$ tactics here and see how long you survive. Chicken shit.
PA Gov. Ed Rendell got a little taste of what happens when the President turns tUnion thugs loose. Even though the SEPTA strike is now over, the Union thugs tried to put more items on an already settled agenda. As big a Union supporter as Rendell is, they tried to stick it to him. Thugs are thugs, and Union thugs are often violent, to the point of murder. It has happened in the past, and will happen again because the Progressives in Government are giving them Carte Blanche access to the entire eco- infrastructure. You have heard of Union towns….we will be a Union Country, and we will become the mediocrity all things Union become. Way to go Obama, way to go SEIU!
I understand that Carnahan brought them in. I would thik that should make him a party to the lawsuit. When the pols bring in the purpleshirts to beat down the lawful protestors they sure as hell need to be held accountable!
So that guy who tried to fake being beaten up by the police – where did he learn that little technique from? This kind of crap seems organized….
Wat's the email address for this DA? Let's spam him with complaints.
Where were the Tea-Party member's that were at the function? Why did no one step into the mix & help this man? I would have been the first one into help a defenseless man who is outnumbered & outsized. They don't pull that kind of stuff here in Texas because they know what would happen. If there is any SEIU member who wants to come on down & meet me, just reply to this message & let me know when you'll be here. I'll make sure I have a real fun time. They are a bunch of COWARDS & the fact this is being pushed under the rug is even more appalling.
I say we coin a phrase like "going postal". Let's call it what it is
Gladney was SEIU'd – when thugs of a politically connected organization assault or threaten individuals.
We can call it Obama'd when your SEIU'd at the public urging of powerful politicians.
Libs are such scum bags. I witnessed similar thuggish behavior at the Tallahassee, Florida vote certification back in 2000. If you notice, Libs always use the rent-a-mob technique by recruiting sympathetic unions to attend on their behalf; carrying ready made signs, bull horns, the whole nine years; in order to play to the even more sympathetic MSM.
Look, folks, things are getting bad in this country when the POTUS call the citizens who elected him names, like extremists and "Tea Baggers".
No where in our Constitution does it say that the government has the responsiblility to take care of every need of its citizens from the craddle to the grave. The only thing the government is supposed to do is to protect its citizens from foreign enemies.
The only thugs I saw were the Gun toting American terrorists threatening to shoot the President of the United States at President Obama's townhalls.
I didn't see hate crime listed in the police report. Is it only a hate crime when the victim is a liberal? If a muslim shoots 40+ it is not a hate crime and there seems to be those in the media that are uncertain it was even a crime at all, but if someone calls someone names it is a hate crime.
SEIU members are no better than a bunch of beggars and thieves who feel entitled to what's been stolen. they should be thankful that underachievement has at the very least landed them a job, but no, even in the worst of times they want more. as if they aren't already overpaid (the logic being that minimum wage at $7.25 is 30x more than a banana)! and i would bet anything that the monkey would not only work harder but perform a better job! FU SEIU!!!
Maybe someone has already brought this up, but have these two been charged under the new "hate crime" legislation yet? Sounds like a hate crime to me…
Gladney would only get MSM coverage from here on if he was arrested and suspected of being a right wing terrorist. Otherwise, they could care less.
Looks to me like SEIU members are going to become targets themselves in the future, wait till the Good Ol Boys roll out of the woodwork…lol
Am I the only one who understands this was done to gauge the response of all of us? There are theories that this is exactly how this administration works. They do or say something they know will piss of people….THEN they gather all the info they can on what the repercussions are/were, and then plan accordingly. These guys are the Hitler brownshirts of our day….notice there is no report of hate crime, etc. It is truly getting to be time to take the battle TO these folks. Pass the popcorn…this is gonna be good!
Bob McCulloch was on the Obama Truth Squad last year. He said he'd "target" and "respond to" anyone making accusation about Barack Obama. That proves he is willing to use his office to silence opponents. He's a prosecutor. Top cop! No wonder he uses his office to protect hired thugs who beat conservatives and uppidy black men who carry Don't Tread On Me flags.
Why don't St. Louisans picket his office?
Purple Peter Eaters acting like fools…….tsk tsk tsk
I guess they didn't "act stupidly" enough for the Usurper in Chief to comment on… no beer for you Kenneth!
I told my father-in-law about this at the time it happened. I couldn't remember the union that did it at the time. He is dire-hard union member, though not with the SEIU, and he just flat refused to believe it. When I showed him the video, he told me that he wasn't surprised that it was SEIU and that they have always given unions a bad name.
These union members need to be thrown in jail, plain and simple. It doesn't surprise me that the DA up in St. Louis is doing nothing about it.
I have begun to quietly and widely distribute lists of companies with SEIU unions. Grocery store, especially high end, and hotels with restaurants/bars will be vulnerable to this attack. Many people had no idea that they were sponsoring a thug union with their dollars. I am also distributing pointers to the SEIU approved shops and places not to shop (according to them, as enemies of their racketeering union).
Person by person and company by company this will hirt the union more than anything. Check you local SEIU site wherever you are to find out which vendors sponsor these hoodlums. Starve them.
This can NOT be covered up. Pressure must be placed on the D.A. That someone can be beaten and no charges filed is not acceptable. Publicize, publicize, publicize.
Don't matter how big and bad you are, there is always someone bigger and badder…..
The thug obama government will never pursue crimes by ACORN or the SEIU. The only way the American People will ever get justice is to take the power away from the obama criminals by voting the Democrats out of office in 2010 and by voting the Kenyan Pretender out in 2012. Take your country back or lose it forever to the obama criminals!
The brown shirt Nazi Obama thugs will walk free – again……
