Wow Michelle! Prayers for your safety. Wish I could send you a few big bubba body guards from cajun country.
#98. C you choose? Be my guest sonofdy.
Doh, Can you choose?
Alright, I choose the powerdrill to the kneecap option!!!
Michelle you are my new great American hero. Stay safe.
Michelle, please quickly immerse youself in industrial strength anti-bacterial soap. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
Learn your lesson and don’t go back. Seriously, if one punch had been thrown (by either the wackos or your friends) it would have escalated to the point where your health, and maybe life, would have been endangered.
Btw, this Alex Jones twit needs a good ass whoopin’ … Louisiana style.
There is a reason that it is a crime to incite a riot… the progression from angry yelling to physical assault can be amazingly fast. Jones should clearly have been arrested for incitement, and the authorities should be presented with the video, and pressed to make an arrest.
MNUSMCDavid do us all a favor lock Alex Jones in one of the caves on Wabasha Street.
Make sure you build a fire for him and bring a supply of smores before you seal the cave entrance.
The world would be a better place..
Sono and Scooter are wildly using their Mommy’s computer before she comes home from work.
Ignore them.
What a blow hard. All bluster and self-importance wrapped up in feigned outrage.
Irrational is as irrational does.
Crap, Sono,you are a good guy, please ignore my saying you are trollish.
See, this is why I carry a supply of tampons in my bag—I just hand them out to folks like Jones because I assume they need one.
Wow, how sad. Glad MM made it out ok. It is good for people to see how these Liberals really are…not this “fake” convention BS that they are giving us. Bleh.
If this is how MM is being treated…imagine what George W. Bush will endure when he gets out of office!!
Unhinged indeed.
plus it really makes them angry.
Michelle, at the end of the video you said they weren’t interested in intellectual discourse. You’ve been accused of being an attack dog, an ideologue, a partisan, and so on. But you always listen to the questions of your detractors, you always consider them, you make a thoughtful reply, in that way you always show respect for the other side. What kind of country would this be if everyone aired out their political disagreements in an honest, intelligent, and forthright way. It would be a better country.
It looks like that fat guy assaulted the guy with the pony tail. Maybe someone should file charges!
Whats odd is that even some of those recreate68 people are looking at Alex “Rabid Dog” Jones with a “WTF” expression on their faces.
This guy is a sever conspiracy nutjob. He;s paranoid, and schizopphrenic (spilt form reality), and apparently is capable of violence when his delusions are challenged.
If he goes to Florida, someone ought to Baker-act him.
Myself and I’m sure most of you have observed this type of behavior before, I suspect that behind the façade he has a crush on MM. He’s just too unhinged not to have some uncontrollable emotional attachment involved. He hate ya but he like ta date ya.
This guy was a crystal clear example of communist thugs. Stalin should be proud.
If he attacks a woman here in south Florida, we will show him some southern justice. He will beg for Baker Act and a padded cell to keep from getting pounded repeatedly. If Michelle comes to south Florida, I will watch her back and, she can chew gum any way she wants!
Michelle, I admire your courage.
That being said, admiration was quickly supplanted by mortification when I saw you put yourself in potential jeopardy like that.
Hate-mailers are one thing. They can’t reach you. People shouting “Kill Michelle Malkin!” who are within physical striking distance are quite another matter.
Of course, I can’t tell you what to do; I’m not even sure you will read this. But for what it’s worth I’ll get on my virtual knees here and plead with you not to do something like that again.
You’re the Queen Bee. We can’t replace you. There’d be no bittersweet in saying after the fact that “She gave her life for what she believed in,” only bitter.
lindsy, no problem. MM I am serious about the helmet and flak vest. They errr fell off the back of a supply truck, yeah thats right… (hint never leave an infantryman alone in the supply room. Sandy berger has nothing on them.)
Honestly, I think the guy yelling ‘Kill Michelle…” was a plant, or just a random observer, probaly conservative leaning guy. I don’t think he was a real demonstrator. He had a funny hat on and was with a guy who had an Obama hat on. The demonstration people aren’t particularly Obama supporters and I doubt they have much use for Alex Jones either. I’m local and the ‘Kill’ yeller or yellers don’t look like real protestors. I think they were Young Repubs, some other type of conservatives, bloggers or perhaps just enthusiastic Rush listeners trying to stir something up…in a good, funny sort of way.
The Alex Jones guy is a nut job. He’s a 9/11 conspiracy theorist and a definite bully. What a rude jerk. He was also very scary. If he want’s to see a real fascist, he should look in the mirror. He’s not exactly open to debate is he? I believe I heard him yelling at the Recreate 68 guy (who probably organized the Denver Mint levetation) on the on the Peter Boyles radio show a couple of days ago. Alex was on Pete after his attack of Michelle this morning.
Pete is coving the demonstrators in Denver’s Civic Center Park and would probably like to talk to Michelle as well. You can catch him live or find pod casts at http://www.KHOW.com. He’s Peter Boyles under Shows.
Hell if she comes to utah, I will give her gum.
PS, Michelle if you’re monitoring and want some helpful walkin’ around Denver company, put the word out. I know you have local support. I’d come.
Alex Jones, the weasel that picks on women! He needs professional help, really bad, so do his followers and the moonbats in these protests.
.
Stay strong Michelle!

Yelling “Kill So-and-so” when there’s a mob of people around So-and-so who could be incited to do just that is neither good nor funny. I sincerely doubt they’re Republicans, and if they are, they should feel free to leave the party any time.
Michelle, please be careful. Those people are about 3 bricks shy of a load, and I’m sure they wouldn’t hestitate throwing them at you!
P.S., when the hell did FEMA establish camps in Iraq?
Michelle, I know you aren’t stupid, but please do not let yourself think for one millisecond that the animal following you around in the video wouldn’t kill you himself if he felt he could get away with it, because he would. His type are violent by nature, and hold back only because they are afraid there’s a chance they won’t get away with it. If he could get a riot of sorts going, he would have the excuse and cover he needed to seriously injure or murder you.
Don’t ever underestimate a deranged monster like him.
Someone should smack the crap off Alex Jones. My God I would like to get at that fat tub of crap.
Absolutely Furious…
That is assault and you should press charges. You should absolutely press charges and put that pig in a real “camp”.
The Pelosi style. Nice.
We agree 100% on this one, BIll Grant.
Good video editing. Alex Jones appears to be somewhat of a simpleton and really should not be allowed to play on the streets like that. Where were his keepers?
File this one under Great Moments in Free Speech (the Peace and Love addition.)
Nice work on the video guys!
I’ve really got to get a copy of In Defense of Internment now. Thanks, Mr. Jones, for stirring more interest in Michelle’s book.
d1, I also heard, “Where is her?”
I’ve seen the video from three perspectives now, and I’ve seen and heard new things in each one. I’m just glad you made it out OK. No doubt your husband and kids are relieved, too. I’m also glad Zombie’s all right.
The friggin’ clueless, illiterate, Olbermann-wannabe youtube commenters are unhinged to the nth degree, taking delight in the threats to your safety.
Peace, love, justice. And how!
Urgh! Lotta good Preview is when I don’t actually proofread myself.
We support camps for people like this. We call them asylums.
Jones needs a good old fashioned ass kicking. He also needs a new toupe/plugs.
On a lighter note, it is always funny to see a fat man try to run.
Michelle, by all means stay safe.
Unhinged does not even begin to describe this totally unacceptable behaviour.
I have read previously that this man (and I use the term in the loosest sense possible) may be exhibits symptoms ranging from psychotic (total disconnect from reality) to scitzoid (better described as scatzoid)…This encephalophallus is merely suffering from a massive cranial-rectal inversion, IMHO.
History is full of examples that any locale “hosting” the DNC is a convergence zone for the extreme moonbattery. My thoughts and prayers for your safety shall continue.
Your example, tolerance and self-control can not be praised high enough.
God Speed.
God bless you Michelle.You are one guttsy girl.I wish I had been there.I would have slapped him flat of his back .No matter what the cost.
Neal from Texas
Wasn’t what Jones did illegal? HAve that fat f*&k arrested!
Michelle,
I’m glad your ok after that. It’s pathetic that the police were so absent while that was going on. It doesnt take much for something to become fatal in that kind of environment.
Keeping you prayer,
Mark
Proof that it’s becoming a death wish to admit your conservative views.
If these loons are that brazen, and willing to go that far, in public on video…..I can only imagine the things they engage in, in secret when nobody’s watching !
Wow – I can’t wait till they show this confrontation on Fox News – 10-20 nuts trying to levitate the Mint -they obviously represent most liberals – sorry they couldn’t keep their heads – and have a more intellectual discussion with you Michelle (?!) – glad you are safe – wow – what great coverage by Pajamas Media (why don’t their reporters wear their pajamas – or at least – stripes?)- this is definitely Pulitzer Prize material…
Michelle, let me know if you need a bodyguard. I’m available to travel and I’m dead serious.
You’re a great American!
Semper Fidelis!
Ok Michelle. I know you are your own woman and a strong willed one at that. But, as I work in a personal & corporate security related field I must strongly encourage you not to do that again! Any one of these kooks could have a knife or gun and in their rage and mental derangement used it on you. You have a husband who loves you, two children who need you (as does Jesse) and a very large public that needs you. Please reconsider and have some security details for where you go. I’d be glad to do it just having my expenses covered. This is not professional advice but it would have been so sweet if you kicked him in his Jesse Jacksons.
I see by the posts above that you’ve got some friends in SLC. I’m one of them. Only 80, ex 82d Airborne (Korea Conflict) but my late mother taught me to respect and protect the better half. Love to see you here!! And here or not, love what you do for us.
God bless you, Michelle. You walk where angels fear to tread. May God keep you safe throughout the week in Denver.
For people who seem to be so interested in “Love, peace, and justice”, they certainly seemed rather hateful, belligerent, and ready to lynch…
It never ceases to amaze me how deep the fathoms of hypocrisy can go in displays like that, and yet moonbats like that are so unhinged that they don’t even recognize it. And they call us, the right, hatemongers…
One last point – Has anyone else read Liberal Fascism by Jonah Goldberg? Ever since I got through it, I’ve been getting irritated whenever someone calls a conservative a Fascist, whereas I never was before… Am I the only one who gets that way?
I’m reminded of Kipling’s “If…”
Michelle, you are no man, but you are certainly an all-American woman! You kept your head when it would have been easy to shout your head off at a lunatic.
Kudos and Semper Fidelis.
I’m not surprised. The so-called “peace” crowd is frequently pretty violent, and they are at the heart of most of the riots in the US in my lifetime. They were much larger than you, and you were surrounded. You must have been terrified, I know I would have been. Stay safe, and maybe next time a bodyguard is necessary??
Look people, this is going to occur again and again to other conservatives that are less notable than MM. Therefore it’s up to all patriots to come to their aid when necessary. Especially ex military, they can’t screw with us through the UCMJ we’re off limits and free to do what we choose when we choose to. We can mingle, heck even pretend we are part of them and keep an eye on what’s going on. It’s too hard to anticipate where we might be needed so just assume that something is going to happen and you will be prepared. Never let your guard down this is civil war albeit a semi cold one, let’s gets to it. Its too bad we have to resort to this but the enemy has forced our hand, its stand up or shut up, Im standing, and I know you are as well.
Give ‘em MicHELLe.
Hey Michelle, That guy in the black t-shirt, was he with you? Cause he’s got some intestinal fortitude as well. If you know him, give him a pat on the back for me.
Oh, and that Pajamas Media guy was funny. I should watch the video again so I can remember his name.
Stephan Green, Pajamas Media.
Good job Michelle–you stayed classy and safe. Good thing they were out of cream pies in Denver.
At 6:06.. there a fat balding hippy walking in front of Alex Jones..
I think that is the same guy I’ve seen in several of the other videos and some of the photo journals going on there..
Also, he was one of the guys screaming at Griff (only name I know him as) from Fox News this linky thing should take you to it..
Glad Michelle is okay..
I was at a drunken college party way back when and it turned ugly.. eerily similar to that..
The last two times I was in Iraq, I looked and looked and looked and looked and looked…..
…never did find those FEMA camps. Sad too, I was looking forward to torturing small children and kittens just so I could go on Alex Jones and prop him up.
Sayyyyyyy….you don’t suppose he’s making all that crap up, do you?
Admirable equanimity, Michelle. It’s good to remind everyone that the core of most demonstrations consists of violent thugs. I’ve been physically attacked twice out of perhaps ten demonstrations I’ve seen here in DC. There are people attacked at every “peace” demonstration by the demonstration organizers and other affiliated groups, such as the Black Bloc. They never make the news, for obvious reasons. It would be too damning evidence of the contempt the Left has for freedom of speech.
I’m loaded cameras, mikes, lighting, seconds, security, dang it, they never come here, you don’t think they think we might be hostile do you? So what if we have a history of seeing and confronting our enemies, such as the Iranian militants back in 79. I want the fairness doctrine, that way they have to come here to get there, where ever there is.
Wow, that’s amazing. I don’t know what to say other than kudos to Michelle for being so calm and mature in the face of that stupidity. Stay safe!
Yeah, once upon a time we passed thru that state and took a stop at Kings Mountain, then moved on west. Miss ya.
disregard my inebriation, please.
I am lucky, I am flying into Denver September 6 to start my vacation hiking up in Rocky Mountain National Park. IF I had decided to go to Denver to check out the convention, I might have been at the mint, and IF I had been there, I would no doubt be in jail for knocking Alex Jones teeth out. I cannot tolerate such abuse of women, especially one I think so much of.
So, Michelle I am pleased you are OK, take care, you are a great credit to this great nation and to Conservatism, it is because of your fine work that I got into writing and blogging.
God bless you, and be careful out there.
Long time lurker, finally posting here. Michelle, after watching the video, I’m completely disgusted with the actions of Jones and the others shouting you down and practically stalking you everywhere you went.
As others have said, the video should be shown to authorities. He stepped over the line when he put his hands on that other guy early during the confrontation.
what did alex jones say that was wrong? He was right about the puppy being alive and Americans killing Iraqi babies. You people sure don’t act like Christians calling for bombs to be dropped on women and children. Jesus would have hated you people.
Michelle,
I’m glad you’re safe, no thanks to the police!
As a former New Yorker, I am very familiar with the hatred, intolerance and violence that is the norm among Leftists. Any one with an opinion that differs with their own is to be shouted down at least or physically attacked. I’ve seen it too many times. They yell “peace and love”, but their actions scream violence and hatred.
Jones is such a mindless thug that he can’t even see the irony of trying to physically intimidate a woman with threats of violence while calling her a fascist! Jones is clearly dangerous, irrational, violent and criminal. If that police officer in the video was actually enforcing the law, Jones and the pathetic hate-monger yelling “kill Malkin” would have been arrested on the spot. Instead, the officer seemed to flee the area! Unbelievable!
Stay safe, Michelle. Never go into such a scene without an escort and without some sort of weapon!
One more thing, the earlier posters who suggested using the video to call for prosecution are right. It should be done.
You got guts lady! Several times I was afraid that fat pig was going to sit on you and that would have been the end.
What I saw looked like assault. Please prosecute. You should also complain officially about the police.
It is “Repeat 68″ as in “the whole world is watching”.
FEMA camp for that fellow.
Just my thought.
I saw the unedited version earlier. The guy was so full of hatred and vile.
Stay safe.
Darth Malkin? Love it! This cries out for a photoshop.
Michelle, what were you thinking? You’re someones mother, no? Is your next project martyrdom? Some of those nuts are capable of doing you serious harm. You shouldn’t put yourself into such a dangerous situation; you’ve been lucky thus far, but if you keep walking the gauntlet one of these crazies WILL do something.
Michelle, you’re tremendously gutsy to interact with these people, but please do be careful about your personal safety in these situations.
Camping is one of my fav activities with my family.
I agree with OLDVANES – what were you thinking? It’s like carrying raw meat in a den of pitbulls.
It is a wonderful example of how filled with hate the left is, but I hope you don’t do it again. Who am I going to read everyday if (God forbid) some wack job leftist decides to slam something into your head?
Bring some of us with you next time.
I’D LOVE TO HAVE A LITTLE OLD SCHOOL BRAWL WITH SOME OF THESE CRAB INFESTED FREAKS!
He could yell from one spot all he wants, but by following MM with a crowd, Alex was committing a criminal act called menacing.
I would have knocked that fat load on his ass.
Michelle, you are one brave lady. My wife is also from SE Asian decent and she kicks butt and takes names too.
Seriously, don’t do that again. You don’t have to convince us how hate-filled these moonbats are…it just isn’t worth it.
another long time lurker — please be careful Michelle. I’m a medic and have seen what these whackos can do when their pea sized brains are over stimulated. Get some body guards and file charges. We love you on the front lines BUT your family comes first. Keep safe for all of us!
isn’t ironic how the dimocrats are all about freedom of speech BUT only when they are speaking!!mabye we should DRILL IN THEIR BRAINS.they are all the same, shout down anyone who does’nt agree with their pt. of view!!this convention of nuts is the best thing for the Republican party it shows americans who the real enemy is!!
