Hmm. Well. Isn't this interesting. An obviously intoxicated NC Congresscritter, upon being asked a single question by a well-dressed University student standing on a public sidewalk, reacts with violence and attempted theft. Refuses repeated requests to desist from his violence, and instead escalates against people who had the temerity to ask a single question.
Private non-violence met with State violence. These two kids are to commended: they showed far greater restraint and forbearance than I or many other people would have in the face of a drunken assault.
