FOX9, October 15, 2018:
Shane Mekeland is running for Minnesota Representative of District 15B, which was vacated by Republican Jim Newberger, who is running against Senator Amy Klobuchar.
Story continues below advertisementAccording to officials, Mekeland was at a bar Friday evening from about 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. During that time, he had a conversation with a man about politics. The discussion started as “amiable,” but the man appeared to take offense when Mekeland made a comment about the “middle class.” The man allegedly punched Mekeland in the face without warning.
In a post on his campaign Facebook page, Mekeland said he suffered a concussion and felt the man’s actions were “politically motivated.”
The suspect was not arrested and has not been charged, but was interviewed by authorities.
The case is still under investigation.

“The suspect was not arrested and has not been charged, but was interviewed by authorities.” Huh?
was a THIS PERSON-“ASAIN”, explaining the reaction of authorities. And if not-charge him like any other-WHY the delay? I trust nothing in Minnesota, Michigan, or NY anymore. Texas is changing too much for my tastes. by the time America wakes up, it will be to late, and then violence will get exponential; because the American people and the politicians have become too stupid.
So as an American I say: you Americans are too stupid to see when a SERIOUS THREAT is coming your way and too complacent to do anything about it!
Antifa violence is not the answer-they are goons without a brain: NANCY, MAXINE
The people with a goal and a plan will succeed more greater than the “plans” with violence.
Hey George Soros: you brought your fight to Europe and here in US;and www will shove it you know where; so much for money and bulls-t. You can spend trillions, and the American people know better. And we will shut you down like we did Hitler and Communism.
We may be complacent-but we are not sleeping. Anyway; why haven’t you died yet?
I am not drunk- but I am a pissed off American!
It makes one wonder… no pictures? People are always recording stuff and taking pictures. Did the restaurant have video too?
I have no doubt that this was politically motivated. Dems are calling FOR violence because they have nothing to run on but failure and advocating more of the same. Regardless if it was politically motivated, it is clear cut assault! Charge the creep for assault. Getting a concussion is serious.
We know if there is no picture, no name and no film, who was the criminal. If he would be white male, we would get this info on the spot. Just using the common sense.
At least he wasn’t shot for reporting a rape as a pretty blonde was
Bravo! Agree!
I hope they didn’t hurt his feelings.
he got an award, I hear
Ban the “Crats!
In polite company, they are referred to as “mo”, or in the plural form, “moes”.
Obama’s legacy continues…
5 Times Obama Has Encouraged Violence Against Republicans
RUSTY WEISS — MARCH 15, 2016
Here’s Obama saying that when it comes to Republicans, you need to “argue and get in their face”:
President Obama tells his supporters that “we need to punish our enemies”:
Obama told Republicans that they need to stop talking and “get out of the way”:
Here’s our President saying he wants to know “whose ass to kick”:
Then of course, there’s the time Obama told his supporters that “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.”
See and hear the video for each one at the link and by no means is this comprehensive.
It’s only a matter of time before your followers actually carry out your orders on this last one, Mr. President.

Why hasn’t the suspect been arrested?
Assault and battery is criminal,I reckon …
NOT if you’re either a member of the “religion of pieces”,one of their lackey flunky sandal lickers,or a demonrat anarchist terrorist..
Agree . Crooks and pro-jihadi criminals all around.
CNN and MSM canonises Mc Cain while Egyptian media expose him for being Leading supporter of Muslim Brotherhood in America and Middle east https://tinyurl.com/y9hk3dpk
Its absurd and farcical how MSM Lies and brainwashes American citizens
it said “under investigation”. Equal= nobody cares
like the saudi investigations
Could it be that maybe the victim did not wish to press charges?
No.
That usually doesn’t stop the DA from filing charges anyway.
he is probably the mayor
“The suspect was not arrested and has not been charged, but was interviewed by authorities.” Gee, he wasn’t arrested. What could possibly keep him from that. A man gets punched in the face. Seems pretty clear cut. Maybe they wanted to talk to him to increase his monthly stipend.
You don’t know who instigated.
Yeah, probably the guy running for office. Right.
look what he made that man do…. –Dem
He who throws the first punch…. Are you serious??
There were multiple fights.
No there weren’t. I realize that your brood sow (mother) was incapable of raising her piglets. But, even to her a lie, that is SO easily caught as a lie, even she had to know that was STUPID.
Oh, you know more about the story? Do tell. You seem to know everything about EVERYTHING. So, please inform us all here about the “multiple fights” since there was NO mention of it here.
If you had done research, you would have found this information.
“The suspect was not arrested and has not been charged, but was interviewed by authorities.”
It’s obvious. The COWARDLY cops don’t like Republicans.
Not necessarily cops fault. They have to follow orders from above, Follow the chain of command to find out who is in charge of “reviewing” this case.
That is a false argument. If COWARDLY cops receives an illegal order, the COWARDLY cops are breaking the law if they follow it. You cannot blame the “chain of command” for anything other than instilling a law breaking mentality for the COWARDLY cops. The COWARDLY cops following said law breaking mentality falls squarely on the shoulders of the COWARDLY cops.
….Minnesota has one the highest numbers of “refugees” settled there….excuse me….I meant “invaders”….Courtesy of Obama and Killary…..
Follow Ann Corcoran’s site: REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT WATCH.
She’s been tracking this for 11 years….she’ll tell you where all these invaders are being put by predominately Catholic and Lutheran churches…..and paid by our government with our tax dollars….
Granted Trump has drastically slashed the ones allowed in….but the next problem is …..how to we get rid of all who were brought in?
That is the excuse the Nazi death camp guards used. Go with it.
Many democrats (commies), calls for violence, starting with mom jeans, james Hodgkinson a supporter of Bernie Sanders, who shot Congressman Steve Scalise and 5 others. How about Tim Kaine who stated to “Fight in the streets against Trump.” Others who call for the assassination of the POTUS, Kathy Griffin’s infamous decapitated head of the POTUS, Loretta when she posted a video urging people to march, bleed, die in the streets, comedian Sarah, called for a military coup against the POTUS, Madonna tells women that she fantasizes about blowing the WH, Snoop Doog with a music video on assassinating of the POTUS, Anti-Trump supporters calls for violence on CNN and a host of other scumbag democrats commies. These are truly commies, traitors and enemies of America. It’s time to fully take our country back and we do this at the Ballot box and in the courts to have most of these commies sent up the river.
Punched in the face without warning is called a sucker punch typically used by cowards. to get an advantage in a fight. Very often the victim is knocked out and the assailant walks away bragging about the dirty fight.
If you are in a fight, get the advantage. You are not in an affair of honor. Your opponent will not be satisfied with a slight wound. Your attitude will get you killed.
This was no fight. It was a surprise attack by a poltroon.
“Poltroon”……love to see you use that word….I use it all the time….also the word “bandersnatch”….:0)
Trump Derangement Syndrome, will the American Psychiatric Association classify this as an actual mental disorder.. They should!!
Whether they do or not……we know what “crazy” looks like and these people are full on NUTS!
Any handbook on social etiquette will tell you the two worst subjects for conversation are politics and religion. Still, it is a curious thing that politics has become a blood sport these days.
But we saw it coming a long way off. Remember during the 2016 primary debates when all the moderators tried to pit one candidate against another and Ted Cruz had to remind them the debates were not a “cage match”? Or who can forget the chicken sh*t Pearl Harbor job Megyn Kelly and milquetoast Chris Wallace tried to spring on then-candidate Trump?
Yes, the media has had a huge hand in it.
You forgot Bret Beair….he and Kelly were tag teaming Trump…I haven’t watched FOX NEWS since that debate…..I get my news from Lou Dobbs on FOX BUSINESS and Rush Limbaugh….FN has turned way to Left for me….
Even Limbaugh can drone on for hours and say almost nothing. Michael Savage, when he’s not going on about himself, calls it like it is like no one else.
If he does not get arrested then it sends out a clear message to other left wing, that it is ok to assault someone who has a different poloitical view.
Look at Germany, man arrested for punching imigrant who was groping his daughter while they waited in a que.
I really greatly doubt world governments care one whit about any of us.
This kind of stuff behooves me because this is what should be done to lieberals. Most are fatherless morons who only need to be SLAPPED.
You punch MEN only. Not the little boys.
If the violent Offender was a Conservative who punched a Dem in the face without provocation he would be in jail and charged.
This is sickening how the violent left keep getting away with assault and battery and worse.
Dimocrats are basically cowards which is why they sucker punch people or, like antifa, wear masks. If they are confronted face to face Dimocrats are spineless wimps.
Good luck getting the attacker charged…..especially if they are “Middle Easterner”…..Minnesota has gone so far Left now you’re not going to get anyone for any violence….
Another Disgraceful display of non police in America.
This yet another justification for carrying a personal weapon.
I hope the assailant is charged with assault.
Why was he not arrested? I guess he thinks he will lose votes by pressing charges. He would gain many more votes if he did have the guy arrested. We cannot just sit back and take punches. They can slander us all they want. They are only making fools of themselves. When it comes to physical violence, a line must be drawn.
Precisely Mike.
Cruz, Sanders, Candace, all of them: The INSTANT something like this occurs, they should whip out their cell phones and CALL THE COPS.
I don’t know what our conservative reps think they’re proving by just…meekly leaving the restaurant/office/area. And you are 100% right again, Mike, when you say they’d “gain…votes” if they did this.
We’ll learn who the real Conservatives are when the first one calls 911 and goes forward with the assault and battery charges. Of course: No one wants to go first…
How do I know that they didn’t all stage what happened to them? None summoned the police themselves (someone else called the police with Candace Owens).
Prosecute this guy for assault to the fullest extent of the law!!!!
Why no arrest? We don’t want to open the floodgates to these kind of people. If you can’t let somebody have an opinion, without violence, then this is not the America I was brought up in. The political battleground can not be allowed to sweep over our laws.
Do we have to start arming politicians? More specificallly, Conservatives? This makes me sick. Who is out there to harass the Lefties? Nobody on the Right wants to do it, but it looks like a tit-fo-tat situation coming up, and the Conservatives have the guns. The Socialists have their mobs. 2+2=4
