Gov. Pat Quinn security THUG physically removes Rauner videographer from public event

by The Right Scoop

So apparently this happened today:

That’s one of Republican candidate Bruce Rauner’s videographer trackers that’s being forced out of what appears to be a public event by Gov. Quinn’s security detail.

Here’s a photo of the same altercation:

The Rauner campaign says this was a public event held on public property and there was no need for this kind of removal:

Campaign videographers are commonplace, especially at public events on public property. We treat the governor’s campaign videographers with respect and we expect nothing less from the governor.

Earlier today, a member of Governor Quinn’s taxpayer funded security verbally assaulted and physically removed a young member of the Rauner team from a public event being held on public property. The stress of multiple criminal investigations does not excuse the behavior of Governor Quinn and his staff.
