Sounds like the group that surrounded him were not very informed.

They are probably upset because he didn't support the anti-lynching bill. And probably also about his no vote on impeachment and refusal to hold Donald Trump accountable. I am in favor of getting rid of no-knock warrants, it is certainly necessary, but there's a whole host of other vote he has on the record that are not great.

Rand Paul is good (and consistent) on civil liberties, and absolute shit on pretty much everything else.

I read reports that he is in stable condition after getting yelled at./

I am pretty sure most people get their information from Facebook from people who in turn get their information from Facebook memes so it’s not hard to imagine many people are uninformed about Rand Paul.
Where as you can follow Trump on Twitter and definitely find out he doesn’t know anything

Except they weren’t telling him to say “lynching” or say “impeachment” they were yelling at him to say Breonna Taylor... so I doubt it...

In fairness, being surrounded by a large group of angry people shouting at you is terrifying. They had no idea if they would be harmed. The protestors were not pausing for a civil chat—they were threatening and the family’s fear is valid. Rand Paul is the one who introduced the Justice for Breonna Taylor Act, so if that’s not saying her name I don’t know what is.
