Blogger handcuffed at George Allen rally
WEYERS CAVE, Va. - A liberal blogger who was manhandled by supporters of Sen. George Allen (news, bio, voting record) this week was handcuffed by authorities and escorted from another rally Saturday after an Allen backer claimed the man pushed him to the ground.

Mike Stark told The Associated Press that sheriff's deputies detained and released him. He was not charged.

"I'll own this town," Stark, a first-year University of Virginia law student, was overheard telling sheriff's deputies as he was led away from the rally at Shenandoah Valley Regional Airport.

Stark said that he was attending the event as a reporter for the Air America Radio network's "The Young Turks" show and that he wanted to ask Allen about his arrest record and why he didn't do more to stop his supporters from wrestling him to the ground at a campaign event on Tuesday.


THEY SHOULD BE ARRESTING ALLEN AND HIS STAFFERS!
