Despite everyone at every political rally and street protest apparently carrying a camera phone, it still seems impossible for two people to come up with the same story. Consider the Donald Trump rally in Alabama at which a black protester was “shoved, tackled, punched and kicked” as well as viciously beaten in what was described as a scuffle, a physical altercation, and a riot. Video shows the viciously beaten man being escorted from the rally apparently unhurt.

No story about a Trump rally is complete now without some mention of a protester or protest group, and tonight in New Hampshire, Trump was reported heckled by a protester yelling “Fascist!”

Protesters start screaming "fascist." In the scuffle they knocked over an elderly man wearing a sweater vest. — Sara Murray (@SaraMurray) December 29, 2015

Noah Gray, also of CNN, made the encounter sound a bit more violent than a scuffle.

2 protestors disrupt @realDonaldTrump, yell "fascist!" Vet next to them gets physical w/them. Celebrity boxer "The Punisher" jumps on them — Noah Gray CNN (@NoahGrayCNN) December 29, 2015

We have some video posted by Jacob Kornbluh of Jewish Insider, who says the heckler was beaten, although it looks like he was beaten mostly with a piece of poster board that said “Trump.”

You lie and exaggerate. That was security removing him. — Beansiesdaddy (@Beansiesdaddy) December 29, 2015

And yes, he was smiling all the way out, carrying his video camera with him. Maybe he’ll upload some point-of-view footage of the beating.

@jacobkornbluh I hate Trump, but I don't see anyone getting the shit beat out of them. — Hawkstrat (@Hawkstrat) December 29, 2015

Trump himself did make at least one fascist-worthy statement:
