Dem Bob Etheridge attacks student
June 14th 2010 23:05
Democratic Representative Bob Etheridge of North Carolina recently assaulted a student. Apparently two college students approached Etheridge and questioned him about supporting the Obama Agenda. He then pushed the camera and grabbed the wrist of one of his questioners. When that didn’t chill Etheridge’s temper he grabbed the neck of one of the boys. See the video here.
We all make mistakes and have temper issues, but most of us can check ourselves short of assaulting people. Bob Etheridge did apologize for his assault but that isn’t going to do it. I believe he should be charged for assault and made to answer for his actions before a court of law.
If a conservative assaulted somebody for asking questions and holding a camera they would already be out of office. As a North Carolina voter I want to see Etheridge answer for his actions and not issue empty apologies,

Imagine if any Republican had behaved that way! The media would be going hog wild for weeks. I agree with you that he shouldn't be allowed to get away with a phony apology and no consequences. But that's probably what'll happen. Bad behavior seems to be acceptable to the Democrats, so he'll get away with assault.
It's disgusting, but not surprising. Sadly...
