ASHEVILLE - Shirley Teter participated in protests during some of the most controversial and conflict-ridden times in our nation's history. But she said she was shocked at her experience at Monday's Donald Trump rally that ended with the 69-year-old being punched by a South Carolina man, police say
Buncombe County Republican Chairman Nathan West said protesters at first were restrained and respectful. But as the doors opened and the number of protesters grew to about 75-100, they pressed close to supporters entering the center and some screamed and cursed at event-goers, calling them "racists" and "Nazis."
"I saw one dust-up where a protester bumped into a younger man and things escalated momentarily but was quickly resolved as other supporters grabbed the young man and pulled him back and (Asheville police) arrived within seconds," West said.

It's part of VAWA, or Violence Against Women Act. This law was passed by feminazis who feel women are equal or superior to men but, apparently need special protections...
Richard L. Campbell, the man accused of sucker-punching a 69-year-old protester outside a Donald Trump rally in Asheville, NC on Monday, is vigorously denying the charge — and has video that his attorney says proves his innocence.
How to check on a warrant
To check on warrants that were taken out against you, or warrants that you have taken out on another person, you must contact the Buncombe County Magistrates Office located in the Buncombe County Court House. This must be done in person.
Ms. Teeter, in spite of her claim of injuries, was later photographed at the rally smiling with other protestors. www.facebook.com...
She does appear to have a bandage to her left elbow where she fell. Multiple video and photographic evidence of Ms. Teeter’s face the following day show no bruising or other trauma to Ms. Teeter despite her claim that she was “punched in the jaw”. Photographs of Mr. Campbell’s hands also so no sign of trauma. As Mr. Campbell is on blood thinner, he bruises easily and with little pressure applied.
Breitbart
Yes I agree, but isn't it usually just assault. Not Assualt on a woman? I could be totally wrong I just wasn't aware

Here is a video leading up to the incident. The Trump supporters had to go through a hostile crowd of protesters to get into the event.
The accused elderly man and his wife were making their way through this crowd when according to the accused man the lady who is the supposed victim grabbed the man on the shoulder and he turned around and she got knocked to the ground.
The cops should have had more control of the protesters, and I think this lady is exaggerating to smear Trump.
Wouldn't be the first time.
Here is a video of the supposed victim talking about it. Does it look like she got "cold cocked"?
Here is an article at Breitbart of the accused man saying the lady made the whole thing up.

AN ACT to create the offense of aggravated assault on a female.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
SECTION 1. Chapter 14 of the General Statutes is amended by adding a new section to read:
"§ 14-34.7A. Aggravated assault on a female.
Unless covered under some other provision of law providing greater punishment, any male person, who is at least 18 years of age, that assaults a female person and inflicts serious injury shall be guilty of a Class F felony."
SECTION 2. This act becomes effective December 1, 2005, and applies to offenses committed on or after that date.
Actually it was a 69 year old lady that happenened to have fallen onto her oxygen tank after being decked by a Chump supporter. And I'm no Hillary supporter so save the drivel. She happenened to be a White lady and the coward that pulled that s#!t should have his punk ass handed to him on a platter. My mother is that age. I would have went bat guano crazy on his ass and engaged something fierce. No weaponry. Personal...would have had to put hands on him.

I wasn't aware of this Assualt on a woman precedent, It was always "assault" period.
Here's the link, if someone could embed the video so I can add it to the OP it would be greatly appreciated.

IMO this was very shameless, I'm not saying I in anyway whatsoever condone an act of this nature. and with that being said
Why is an attack on a female charged differently than an attack on a male?
I thought these Social Justice issues were about equal rights. This is a very slippery slope to attach female to it. Next it will be assault on a "transgender" or assault on a "black man", a "jew", simply labeling every assault as a hate crime which is not so.
Also let me state that no one should ever punch anyone in the face over different opinions or views,
