People should not approach these people and ask them questions like that unless they are prepared to defend themselves, because everything these obama supporters do is against our country and they know it! That is why they get defensive and violent because they know they are in the wrong as leaders of America...
Rule: If you are going to approach these people and ask them these questions then you should also be prepared to defend yourself and be ready to break their bones and put them in the hospital..or 6 feet under...

I guess it is OK to use Ambush Journalism and then edit the living daylights out of the video, post it on youtube and watch so many drop their jaws. I have never seen so many easily steered by someone with an obvious agenda, and it was not the politician in this instance.
Myself? I only rolled my eyes. That dink is lucky some security didn't smack him around some.

Objectivity would not agree. Asking a representative a question should be hand in hand with being ready to break bones?
What country are we in again?
..Do you understand what you're implying?
That kid was spot on. He could have beat that old man up but he knew what he was doing.
Props to that college kid for NOT reacting with violence.

Why do we hate politicians so much?
Because they first hated us....

You are serious, aren't you. By your logic, every press cameraman should be Bruce Lee'd by our elected officials. That'll show them. Screw the First Amendment! Right?
NO.

Because:
1) you're on the same drugs that the politician is on
2) you're a wannabe rent-a-cop
3) the fecal matter between your ears cannot comprehend that only barbaric savages resort to unwarranted physical assault
I also feel that someone is right to be assertive when ambushed and having their personal space invaded.

Nice try. Remember how Jean Chretien handled that guy that got in his face? He removed him from his face with force. Call me old school, but people who pull stunts like this deserve to be put in their place. Those kids were not media. They were punks trying to get a rise out of someone.
As for the unwarranted physical assault. What If i walked up to you and said something about your wife or attacked you verbally. Told you that your kids are actually mine. Would you then assault me? I would expect to get punched. Sometimes it is just right.

No. Just no.
I am NOT supporting that rep. I am in support of the college student wholeheartedly.
I would have beat the daylights out of him had he touched me.
Does that make it right? No.
Could it be easily construed as self defense? Absolutely.
The fact remains that the kid actually showed character traits that are indicative of a very intelligent person.
If you feel I twisted your words, I apologize. I simply wanted to make it clear that if the day comes that we have to be ready to defend ourselves physically when questioning our elected officials, that is a very sad day indeed.
