Pelosi will probably call him on the carpet

"Listen dumbass I have 2 police guards precisely so -I- don't break a nail on the hoi polloi--go thou and do likewise"

gotta respect da man or he will pop yo punk ass X(

-he has the right to ask who is asking him questions?
-twas not an asssult, merely a pre-emptive defensive strike, see how the guy couldnt use his hands
-it could ve been a terrorist, or even worse, a republican sent journalist, you dont know who se who nowadays
-he stayed polite, you dont hear him calling names or something, neither did he draw weapons, or hit/struck him, he merely held him/hand for a while and let go when was requested to do so
-the guy excercied his right to ask a man a question, and failed, he should live with it
-good to see poiticians arent just talking whimps, eyemarican congressman know their street stuff
-also, the congressman was alone, vs 2 (or more?) young men, potential for a setup/overtaking there
-camera in the face gets any politician going,lol, either to proclaim their prophecy or to protect their privacy/personal space, respect that
-the guy got a nice vid out of it and will cry wolf, whilst the congressman, in his full right, will need to explain himself, talk about unfair.

-maybe he got back from a high security intell thingy meeting...you know what happens there...

ofc, (some of) these points are (semi)sarcastic, just thought i should add that, xD

ever heard of video manipulation? those blurs short after the start of the video and the clear cut after it? the video doesn't show the full situation. we watch what someone wants us to watch. there is always a diffrent story to tell. in the end it is just propaganda of our tea-party friends.

College kid should have whooped his ass

Btw does the congressman look stoned or is that just me?

>>ever heard of video manipulation? those blurs short after the start of the video and the clear cut after it? the video doesn't show the full situation.<<

If there was information justifying his actions concealed in the released video, the congressman had every opportunity to share it with us. There wasn't, and he didn't.

>>It's a silly trifle.<<

It's illegal in my country. The law is not a trifle in my country.

He does look like he's on drugs, Frenzay. That, or he's retarded. But there's certainly something extra going on in his head... or very little going on in his head.

Its considered Assault here in the states Arnot. You may not physically lay hands on another person without permission either implied or explicitly granted. Otherwise its a variation of Assault.

Our laws are there for a purpose. It's to stop people from acting like this dude did and being freaking retarded. You don't grab hold of people even if you want to know their name. If the guy doesn't give it then you ain't getting it. Did you see the fact that the congressman actually held onto the camera at the end? Thats called theft boys and girls.

i'd like to see a version of thread concerning a republican congressman

oh and no one played the gay card yet!

um the closest a republican came to this was Senator Larry Craig getting called for playing footsie in a men's room, bumping feet with people next to him

including an undercover cop

for which some dumbass libertarians supported him, because its a free country and we just need to be mature about being groped on the the throne X(
