Big Easy Beatdown… GOP Official and Boyfriend Savagely Beaten Leaving SRLC Dinner
by Jim HoftOn Friday night Allee Bautsch, chief campaign fundraiser for Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, and her boyfriend Joe Brown, were savagely beaten in New Orleans after leaving a Republican party fundraising dinner. This report was put together on what we know so far on this horrible attack on two young Republicans.
Allee Bautsch and her boyfriend Joe Brown
The governor’s office said Monday that Allee Bautsch suffered a broken leg and her boyfriend suffered a concussion and fractured nose and jaw in the alleged incident. (KSLA)
A Republican activist and her boyfriend were savagely beaten in New Orleans on Friday after leaving the SRLC dinner. It was originally reported that they were attacked because they were wearing Sarah Palin pins..
Free Republic reported:
Allee Bautsch, chief campaign fundraiser for Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, and her boyfriend Joe Brown, were savagely beaten Friday night in New Orleans after leaving a Republican party fundraising dinner by a group of thugs who reportedly targeted the couple because they were wearing Sarah Palin pins.
Bautch’s leg was broken and Brown incurred a broken jaw and nose as well as a concussion.
The Hayride reports that a source who visited Bautsch at the hospital the day after the attack says they were told the couple was attacked for wearing Palin buttons:
Two people at the Brennan’s event have now confirmed that the protest had largely broken up by the time it ended, but we also understand from someone who visited Allee Bautsch in the hospital Saturday morning that she and Brown were followed and attacked expressly because they had Palin pins on (she heard one of the attackers say “Let’s get them, they have Palin pins on” – so the attack WAS politically motivated as its victims understood it. It was not a mugging, it was not an argument gone wrong and it was not a bar fight.
The story of a Republican and her boyfriend being viciously attacked for wearing Palin buttons has yet to make national headlines, unlike say, unfounded rumors of nasty words being said by Tea Party protesters.
Related… Anarchists took to the streets in New Orleans on Friday to protest the SRLC, marching to the Hilton Hotel, where a banner was hanging from the roof which said “We won’t pay for their crisis. Become the crisis!” —- The march then headed to Brennan’s Restaurant, where a $10,000 a plate SRLC dinner was in progress.
UPDATE: They are still investigating the violent attack–
Friday night, the Governor’s campaign fundraiser, Allee Bautsch, and her boyfriend were involved in an altercation in the French Quarter with a group of people.
While there were protestors around at that time, we are not aware of any evidence that the individuals involved in the altercation were protestors.
Allee’s leg was badly broken in the incident, she has had surgery, and she is facing a recovery time of two to three months. Her boyfriend had a concussion, and also a fractured nose and jaw. They are both expected to fully recover.
NOPD is investigating the incident and we are refraining from further comment to allow them to fully investigate and ensure justice is done. Our prayers are with Allee. She is a strong person and we are sure she will make a speedy recovery.
Thanks,
Kyle Plotkin
Office of Governor Jindal
Press Secretary
And, here is another update on the protest that was sent to me today after I published this report:
I am the photographer for the LA GOP and I was at the Brennan fundraiser. When I left about one hour or so after all 3 of the governors left the crowd of protesters had grown. The were very nasty, signs were vulgar using the “F” word. As I left the restaurant I was yelled at – there was a family visiting the restaurant with a baby stroller – they had nothing to do with the fundraiser and they were being heckled using the “F” and “MF” words.. A couple of them made comments to me.
Thanks, Eric
UPDATE: Here is a photo of the crowd outside of Brennan’s that was sent to me later today–

And, here is video of the protesters by Jeff Blanco at Inside Louisiana News chanting “Fight Back!”:
In their latest update- The Hayride still insists that the attack was politically motivated.

Oh. I should eat a polar bear.
…Japan made that same miscalculation.
As Isoroku Yamamoto whispered so prophetically…
"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."
CM Sackett
It must have been some of those violent tea party types.
A president for the WHOLE NATION has never been more needed…
Lt. Col. (ret) ALLEN WEST.

I will stand with this man, anywhere, anytime.
CM Sackett
Why is there no description of the perpetrators on ANY news site? Usually that only happens when the perps are non-White. I don't think this has anything to do with the protestors – sounds more like something from "urban" culture.
And they say that Tea Partiers are violent… I am glad that Ms. Bautsch and Mr. Brown are expected to fully recover. I hope that the people who did this are caught, but I will not be holding my breath.
losers !!!!!!!
By the way, make sure to bring tasers to Tea Party rallies for "infiltrators".
Rahm Emanuel is pure poison. He hides behind his team of puppets and thugs.
Why are you people so gullible? You would have said the same thing about Colin "I can't pronounce my name correctly" Powell.
A full, speedy recovery for the both of them. To say what happened to them "was horrible" is a gross understatement.
I think I actually read somewhere that one of the attackers was a white guy. The story says that the attackers referred to the victims' Palin pins. Most urban blacks have no idea who Sarah Palin is. Many of them are not even functionally literate. Howard Stern demonstrated this when he sent a reporter to Harlem and many of the blacks in Harlem talked about how Palin would be a great vice president to Obama.
It is an increasingly dangerous world, regardless of your political views. Never leave home without a taser or pepper spray. I would also seriously consider getting a concealed weapons permit if they are available where you live. As the economy continues to crash and we continue to be "blessed" with more and more diversity, expect violent attacks like this to become the norm. In the past several weeks there have been violent, anti-white flash mobs in Philadelphia, Kansas City, and NYC and the MSM won't talk about it. Thank God I live in a small town.
True. Ironically, either consciously or subconsciously, people like "CM Sackett" think that by heaping praise on a rare black conservative, they are proving that they are not "racist" so that people like the raving lunatics who attacked this innocent couple will like them.
I know the clip you are speaking of but it can be interpreted in another way. Stern's reporter was misleading them in a way that would be obvious to someone who knew what they were talking about. These same people have been mislead by the media, however, to demonize Palin – they know who she is and what they are supposed to do to her if they see her.
The surrounding facts suggest it may be Whites but the nature of the crime is highly unusual for White behavior is all.
[...] it was the Palin pins after all. Disagreement=Death [...]
Your racism is showing.
The "rare black conservative"? Did it ever occur to you that there are far more black conservatives than you think? You are confusing democrat with liberal the same way you morons confuse conservative with republican.
Of course I don't expect you to understand. You are, after all, a lefitist moron.

Nice try, moby. Especially cute is your attempt to modulate your racism with the "one of the attackers was a white guy" comment. Makes the whole charade a little more believable.
Leo is a moby; a "crash the tea party" type, in cyber form.
wow– you're really really a scared little thing aren't ya? get some help, please…
Are you still here Randy? I figured you being butt-hurt after every ignorant, asinine, unsubstantiated comment that you would have figured out that these people are smarter than you. You make comments based on stereotyped assumptions.
I am going to make an assumption of my own. Seeing as you get completely destroyed every time you post, you created and alternate profile to reply to your own comment, just 8 minutes later, to give the impression that someone actually agrees with your prejudices.
I'm not buying it, troll.
Gee imagine that, two conservatives are beaten, seriously injured, and sent to the hospital. Nothing is heard from the MSM except the "chirping of crickets". Yet, they'll loudly and repeatedly provide coverage over the alleged use of the N-word; even after it's shown to be a hoax.
Jah!– And don't forget your Brown Shirts!
Because, idiot, this site isn't like MediaMutters, DailyKos, HuffPo, etc. They don't report speculation as it were truth. Despite your complaints to the contrary.
Go to hell jerkoff
Yes. The fictional mockery of a perfumed aristocrat is newsworthy, but the brutal assault of two conservatives isn't worth a mention.
The MSM can't die fast enough.
Anxious to get the details of this from the MAIN STREAM MEDIA.
"Randy" and "Leo"…
…ruthlessly irrelevant vitriol, based on Alinski tactics, rather than even the faintest knowledge of your subject OR the object of your leg-lifting.
Not very original, but extremely telling. Your mom got supper ready yet?
CM Sackett
The silent majority will be silent no more
While I think bringing weapons to a demonstration is a bad idea, especially for conservatives, as any act of self-defense on their part will be spun to make them look like the aggressors, being prepared to defend yourself against attack hardly qualifies one as a Brown Shirt.
Now, attacking defenseless people in dark allies because of their political beliefs. Hmm. Sounds rather sepia to me…
Another argument for concealed carry laws.
That's some moby, Charlotte!
Insipid shits?
Are you referring to the people who were beaten or the people? with the moral qualities that allowed them to beat a woman and break her leg?
Let's see who is right after the midterm elections. I am willing to bet right now that the GOP gets less than 10% of the black vote. By the way, I am not a "leftist moron", just a conservative who can read polling data. Where were all of these black conservatives when Obama got 95% of the black vote?
Oh wait…. the tea party… hmmmm…. I am starting to see that King zero must be very afraid if he is sending his knights of the Union table to cowardly beat up his opposition.
Indeed. Find out about concealed carry laws in your locality

Narrative overides news. If it don't fit the mold it is not news. Though this in itself is not news either because this has been the msm's modus operendi for decades. Just that now and by grace of the internet they are no longer getting away with it.
Everything is getting clearer to more people everyday. The TPM is a corollary not the cause. It is the result of the mass awakening and through the internet and alternative media is now coalescing.
And not a minute too soon!!!
your joking of course
Big Union town. I wouldn't be surprised if SEIU thugs are behind this. I think their headquarters is in New Orleans. Maybe someone can give more info on this.
This is what we can expect more of. Physical intidmidation. A union MO.
And again…. Where is the outrage on this kind of violence against our citizens? Any news? No, they'll only report, just an accusation of spitting and name calling…. but absolute true to life, violent attack, and no comment!
Last week we were lambasted because of a single road rage incident that was not quite verified all because he had an Obama sticker, we don't even know what happend or didn't happen in that (road rage happens every day)…. It was headline news and I think the guy was offered a talking spot on MSNBC and CNN.
I hope this young couple are ok and heal quickly. Whoever did this is a coward and I hope they are caught soon. We are really just seeing the beginning of what will prove to be the most contentious years since the civil war. The left are crazy, violent and selfish… Right now what could they possibly be angry about?? Their guy won. They are the majority. They don’t even need to invite the Republicans to vote on any piece of anything. So What’s their anger about?
Even if they have video of the cowards that did this, the courts will look the other way. Remember the poor soul that was selling flags last summer…
"Racism?" This is a left-wing tactic. Go ahead and keep attacking racially-conscious white conservatives if you must. Good luck winning an election without us. There are a lot more of us than there are black conservatives. The black RNC head is attending an event hosted by Al Sharpton. Now that's racism.
You won't hear a peep.
Pretty sorry excuse for a protest. And I use the word protest pretty generously here.
Here's an idea for them-go to Tulane, or Xavier, or Delgado, or LSU, or better yet-UC BERKLEY!
Pursuit of happiness does not equal guarantee of happiness.
Yea, me and all the other people out there with concealed carry permits are all just "scared little things." I hope you have a cop standing next to you the next time someone tries to rob or assault you.
Funny thing is this, I thought that the left says that the right is racist and that their fight is against blacks and women. in the video and pic above I didn't see any black people! Where are they? this is New Orleans right? They do have a pretty sizeable population there! Of course the left won't report on this story because it paints them in with the same crowd as the Tea Party! The truth however is that the left does far worse things. I do not agree with calling anyone the N-word, but free speech is a RIGHT, beating people down is a CRIME! There is no proof of the N-word being hurled, but it was a huge scandal. I will say that at this point, there is little proof as to the reason for the beat-down, but it is OBVIOUS THAT A CRIME WAS COMMITTED, unlike with the n-word supposed incident.
No, I said one of the attackers was a white guy because it is the truth. Just like it is also true that most blacks are liberal and have no interest in ever voting GOP. Just because I am willing to accept uncomfortable realities does not make me a "racist."
Yes, racism is a left-wing tactic. Thank you for restating the obvious. That's why we see it used by mobys and trolls so often on this forum.
But you knew that already.
Was a time when most American blacks voted Republican. That day can come again, and the prospect strikes fear into the hearts of lefties. That's why they use moby plants who pretend to be conservative, but mouth "racially-conscious" (cute!) rhetoric.
But you knew that already.
Vile doesn't approach this conduct. The stench of leftist violence permeates. Disgusting.
Nice argument. Vulgarly telling someone to rot in hell for pointing out that Colin Powell betrayed his principles to support someone with the same color skin as him is definitely a great conservative thing to do.
You might consider drugs for that anxiety…it might be awhile (if ever)
Huh??
Go away, Fonz.
I'm not really clairvoyant,
but I'm seeing this as a prelude of what's to come
Be careful on Thursday, folks…
I hope the best for Ms. Bautsch and Mr. Brown and, I hope the eventual publication of the police report gives us more useful information.
Now for this – cripes Leo, Randy…have you ever tried reading what you post without wearing those narrow-minded minded glasses you have on? “Rare black conservative”? “Sounds like something from urban culture”? “…The crime is highly unusual for White behavior”?
You do know that black, white, latino, whatever, people have individual human traits, personalities, strengths, weaknesses? We all, regardless of race, have the propensity for reason, love, understanding, and we all have the ability to be irrational, vicious, cruel – you understand that don’t you? We should all be concerned when people act, based on racial differences or even political ideology, to harm others who aren't part of their "group". But at the same time, perhaps we should check ourselves to ensure that we are not acting out against others (or saying something ignorant) because of a preconception about the differences between their “group” and us.
they will probably be prosecuted for provoking violence by wearing the pins……………..the left is showing their true colors……….we outnumber them and when we push back they are going to huddle in fear………you betcha
don't hold your breath waiting for the press to pick this up
Where were their guns?
Fortunately, there is a cure for this anxiety.
You're there.
"Was a time when most American blacks voted Republican."
Yes, it was called Reconstruction. The GOP did not become the home of conservatism until Barry Goldwater (who btw was compared to Hitler by your "conservative" buddy MLK). Since then, the GOP has gotten about 10% of the black vote in most national elections. Sorry if this makes you uncomfortable. Go ahead and respond to this by calling me a "moby" or a "racist." I'm not going to respond to you anymore as you obviously cannot engage in rational debate with someone you disagree with. We'll see who was right when exit polling data comes out from the mid-term elections and the GOP wins in a landslide despite getting less than 10% of the black vote and 35% of the Hispanic vote.
The blacks of NO were either transported to Texas or drowned while looting after Katrina
Naw, a polar bear should eat you – freak, get lost
Waiting in line for free money since they all lost their jobs –
Your point is so idiotic it doesn't deserve a response. Do you have any clue why people support Col. West? Let me help you out dimwit, Col. West gets what terrorism is all about and isn't willing to hold hands to disarm the enemy – now go to bed child!
Morons abound!
Lining up to get free money since they all lost their jobs –
Btw dingbat, do you have a clue why people support Col. West? Hint – it has to do with terrorism.
DID ANYONE EXPECT ANYTHING ELSE BUT THIS KIND OF MINDLESSNESS FROM OBAMA INC.
And yet, MLK was a Republican, too.
Polling results won't prove your right, but it may reinforce the prejudices of some, and some may throw up their hands and declare, "the way things are, are they way they'll always be." What a shame, on both counts.
I am glad you won't be responding to me anymore. The less moby-ing around here, the better.
Oh it's ok charlie, let the kids play – they are such useful idiots and don't even know how very valuable they are! Who cares what nonsens randy and his side kick post, they are a couple of flunkies who think people here give a care what is on their silly minds -
Btw dingbat, do you have a clue why people support Col. West? Hint – it has to do with terrorism.
So, he agrees with Ron Paul and the CIA who say it is because of our interventionist policy in the Middle East.
People get really b!tchy when we want to take our money away from them.
I think the guy who was picketing for education was stoned to the gills.
You're right, OCG, but I LIKE pokin' the little critters with a stick. It pleases me.
Heh. The lefties want everyone to be stoned. It's just that when it comes to conservatives, they want it to be with real stones.
My adult son and I are talking about this right now. He is going to accompany me to our Tax Day Protest to be the camera man. California believe it or not is an open carry state and he wants to bring his gun. He's not going to, no need to cause a panic. However I am going to pick up some pepper spray after work tomorrow. I suspect things could get ugly. However NOW THEY CAN HEAR US and as usual because they have no defense for their socialist beliefs the Left will attack. Losers, they only need to take a personal inventory to figure out what is wrong, but none of them can bear a personal inventory. What jerk off could break that poor girl's leg? Seriously you'd have to be ball-less man or a classless woman to do that. Look at that girl, she is hardly a prize fighter and she is someone's daughter very much like my own. I pray they catch these spineless, shameless thugs. We are stepping on toes people, be prepared to defend yourselves.
There are a number of reasons this might not have anything to do with Left/Right politics at all.
Let's not jump just yet.
I bet if you look back far enough, you'll see tentacles connected to SEIU in this beat-down. That's the type of thing they do, after all.
Oh YEAH. Hold your tempers, hold your head high and keep pepper spray at your hip. This will be an exciting protest. I was at a protest in January in San Diego in front of NBC, there was a troll there. My sign had to do with gun laws, this man who appeared to be with no one and struck up a conversation saying we should all be armed. Then he went further and said that we should fire thru some windows to make a point. I thanked him and walked away. I know he wanted to engage me in talk of firing on people. My point of being there wasn't to promote gun violence but to promote the freedom to arm myself. There is a very big difference. Trolls are everywhere. The 'ANON' type isn't limited to a blog the 'ANON' type has taken to the street. ANON = TROLL

I hope both of them heal quickly and that NOLO Police find and arrest the criminals that did this. It matters not if it was the protesters of the convention or not. We all know that Republicans are not a protected class so HATE CRIME STATUTES will not apply. Criminals need to be punished.
If they are found to be the PROTESTORS it will be intresting to see how deep the MSM bury this in the news and if the Democratic LEADERSHIP condems the actions or condones them by their silence.
Well, that does it for me. I am now going to arm myself, my family members and friends, with pepper spray and tazers, and we are ALL going to get VERY involved in ALL tea party and 9/12 gatherings and protests.
I AM NO LONGER GOING TO STAND BY AND WATCH THIS SHIT!!!!
YOU GOT THAT PROGRESSIVES!!!!
GLOVE ARE OFF AND THE FIGHT IS ON!!!
Is there any point reading biggovernment.com comments anymore?
Over the past 2 weeks the comments have been overrun by Soros funded Mobys.
Here's one right back atcha: I'm a liberal. I desperately need minorities to feel afraid and dependent so I can forever keep them as a subjugated class. Those stupid Republicans may have outlawed slavery, but we'll win in the end because some people are genetically fit for servitude. Our policies will create the biggest dependent class in the history of the world. And we, the liberal elite, will be their masters.
Are you really that damn dense? Nevermind, I know the answer – go play with a muslim, have a happy day with your head up your ass -
In George Will's words, had this happened to Democrats, there would be a continent-wide indignation festival. This would be a hate crime, except Republicans are so evil hate crimes against them are OK.
It's starting to look like this "Bring Your Taser to the Tea Party" mantra is a crasher maneuver.

Liars are easy to spot. Give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves. Needless to say I don't believe for a second that you're a conservative. maybe conservative like David Frum is a "conservative"
Blacks voted for Obama because he's bllack and a democrat. Not because he's a liberal or they're liberals. Learn to seperate these, because they aren't the same thing. Colin Powell voted for Obama because he's black. What party does he belong to again? Get the picture?
Black doesn't equal liberal and neither does Democrat. White doesn't equal conservative and neither does Republican.
FYI, the midterms would prove nothing even if they went my way. You keep making the same dumb mistakes in assuming that democrat=liberal.

Naw. Exposing them is so easy because they are so stupid. It's kind of like shooting fish in a barrel…with a bazooka. I almost feel guilty doing it…
…
almost
…
…
OK, not really.
Welp!…..better get ready to take it on the chin and everywhere else. Cause that’s what it's gonna take to get the country back on the right track. Remember the freedom ain’t free slogan? If you don’t better get a T-shirt! Personally I think if you have a really just cause such as throwing oppressive politicians out with their thug minions. We need to let them become as tyrannical as they possibly can and take what they throw at us.
That is until election time meanwhile keep showing up stay passionately motivated and take names. Because if we can vote them out. That will just be stage one. The cause of freedom against oppression has to be represented and fought for if needed! Otherwise it gets thrown aside (evidently) for the promise of FREE STUFF! I never thought I would have to possibly take physical punishment for general freedom in my lifetime.
Didn't they get the memo? "REPUBLICANS…SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP!" Our government has told us not to speak up and disagree with them! Who's next to be beaten by these progressive thugs who have only the "F" word as their argument?
That's a incredibly stupid and racist observation. Hey, try this one, can you "guess" what I'm thinking?
Holly
We'll be at the L.A TeaParty Thurs…
All will not go well…
Ther's more to it than that punk. STFU. Butt out.
It would appear to me that we are at fault no matter what happens. If we are attacked and defend ourselves, we are aggressive and evil conservatives (need I say racists). If we allow ourselves to take a beating we are somehow at fault for instigating the confrontation.
It is sort of like a rape victim wearing a short skirt and being told "what do you expect when you dress like that".
If you wear a Palin pin, or any other conservative identifier, expect to get a beating and expect to get the blame for it.
The left is trying to create a "Reichstag Fire". We are toe to toe with an angry mob that HATES us, they are shaking their fingers in our faces and poking us in the chest trying to get a reaction. Any such reaction to their hate will be our downfall.
We need to save our anger for the polls in November and VOTE THE BASTARDS OUT.
We're gullible, Randy? Your ilk fell for the Flim Flam Man. Talk about gullible.
Olberman will be doing a story tomorrow that says the whole attack was faked by Republicans to make the sleazebag, welfare-scamming, "I-don't-want-to-pay-back-my-student-loan", entitlement-laden leftists look bad. But he will claim that this fake beating is only more evidence of the kind of violence only Republicans can think up. It is exactly things like this that confirm that Fox should be silenced, and the Tea Party Terrorists put in jail. Only then will the streets of New Orleans be safe to walk at night. That is, if Obama gives him permission to say anything at all.
Cokie Roberts , a New Orleans native, was warning about a civil war but she was implying the right was responsible. Hey Cokie, how about looking into this?
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
looks like the patriots turn…
Colin Powell voted for Obama because he's black. What party does he belong to again? Get the picture?
Yeah, Powell is a "Kill Whitey" Black Power Party member like 99% of Blacks.
Oh, and for those claiming it has nothing to do with the kooks protesting. What are you saying? That New Orleans has people who beat the crap out of nice young couples at random, without even robbing them? Sounds like Jindal should send in the LA National Guard and clean the cesspool up.
