Obama’s Troops: Arrested St. Louis SEIU attacker demands Workman’s Comp for HIS injuries
By Kevin “Coach” Collins
Remember Elston McCowan? He’s one of the SEIU purple shirted thugs who were arrested for beating a Black conservative for daring to protest Obamacare outside a town hall meeting featuring Democrat Congressman Russ Carnahan.
It turns out McCowan actually had the nerve to ask for Workman’s Compensation payments because he is “injured” and unable to “work.” Missouri had the good sense to tell this deadbeat to get lost, but moochers like McCowan don’t discourage easily when something for nothing is at stake. He has applied to the SEIU to pay him, thereby acknowledging he was there and committed this assault on union business.
McCowan’s biography reveals besides being a hired mugger for his union, he’s a Baptist Minister “community activist” and former Green Party candidate for Mayor of St. Louis.
McCowan alleges he and another “innocent” SEIU community organizer were actually the “victims” of Kenneth Gladney who presumably smashed his face and ribs into McCowan’s fists hard enough to disable “Reverend” McCowan, rendering him unfit to “earn” his living.
This cinches it
That night McCowan who is the Public Service Director of SEIU Local 2000, was arrested at the scene wearing his purple SEIU shirt which is good evidence he was there on official union business.
In an intercepted E mail McCowan admitted it all: “To-date my workman’s comp has been denied, which means that I have to pay co-pays for my Dr.’s visits as well as deductibles. Currently SEIU Local 2000 is paying for my legal fees in defending myself and any others charged with assault associated with the Union..”
In the type of twisted rhetoric that would have made Stalin’s chest swell with pride, the SEIU has setup a “Committee to Defend Victims of The Missouri TEA party”!
Can there be any doubt about McCowan’s mission that night?
These questions about McCowan demand answers
Since “Reverend” McCowan is so destitute who is paying for the private attorney who is representing him?
What medical expenses could he have that didn’t reach some level of his medical insurance deductible?
Subsequent to his other public statements on his arrest he reportedly told a Left wing commentator he went to the meeting as a member of the SEIU Local 2000 staff in contradiction of his earlier statements that he was there to hear Caranhan’s positions on the ageing since his father is elderly. Why was this information smothered by the Democrat controlled media?
Was he there on official business or not?
If so who ordered him to be there?
If so what right did the SEIU think it had to sent its members to a peaceful town hall meeting to disrupt it and viciously gang assault an innocent American citizen exercising his rights of free speech?
