It's quite possible the MoveOn crazies staged this, but it looks legit to me.
Regardless of whether it was staged or not, you don't push a woman, or anyone, to the ground and put your foot on her head. What the hell did she do to deserve that? The cowardly loser who did that should have been arrested. At the very least, I would have liked to seen him knocked down and stepped on in the young woman's defense.
...if it's legit, I should have added. The guy was a bit careful to not stomp too hard, so maybe a case for staging, but if it's legit, stomp the bastard!
In the raw footage you can hear someone yelling at Mr. Curb-Stomp-Lite "Nononononono!". Someone at least knew how bad it looked, or it was the cameraman thinking something real bad was going to happen. Can't tell.
Ah, stomping boy was a county coordinator for Rand and is blaming the camera angle.

None of the major news outlets are showing the footage of her running up and sticking her sign in the window of the vehicle. I'm not saying stomping was justified, i'm just saying she didn't really tell the truth about what happened. She made it seem like she was just positioning herself in front of the crowd not charging the vehicle. You are right if law enforcement were working security she would have been arrested. It seems clear to me that she was trying to create a scene.
Rand Paul's lead just increased in the poll results released today. You gotta stop being a Paul hater.
Also, you underestimate the impact this incident will have on voters. People are smart enough to know the guy got carried away and was acting of his own accord. Not at the candidate's direction.
Yep! He won.
