Speculation.

Does that mean that we are oppressed? No, but it shows these congress fucks believe they can get away with anything they fucking want to.

Actually, I don't think it does. If he believed he could have gotten away with anything, he would have at the very least taken their cameras, don't you think?

ANY congress person that lays hands on a civilian like this should be asked for his resignation or at the very least tried for more than just assault because this is an abuse of power.

I'm not sure about this. While I will admit that his resignation should be considered, I don't think it should be based on the accusation of an abuse of power. Rather, I think it's a breach of trust and integrity. His position is a senior one in a legislative capacity. If he demonstrates an inability to abide by the law of the land, then the trust the people place in him is in question. But where do we draw the line on this?

Secondly, had the kid reporter been black, Hispanic or female, this would probably have been headline news until Rep. Dunk Fuck resigned. The fact it was a white male student and someone has posted it was a set up... says something about the reverse racism and ignorance of some people. Rep. Drunk Fuck should be asked for his resignation REGARDLESS of whom, what race, what nationality, what whatever the kids is. The same could also be said based on party affiliation... Dem it's ok... GOP turn in your resignation type press.

I'm not at all interested in what-ifs. They're useless and unwieldy. Because we would need to go further and say, "Had the Congressman been Black or Hispanic, he would have been forced to resign already.... Had the Congressman been female, the actions would have been ridiculed.... Had this been at night, the Congressman's actions would have been justified as self-defense...." Also, I don't know how the suggestion that it was a setup is reverse racism. Generally, you're really stretching here—
really stretching....
