mmmmm....no, I'm good with it.
Maybe David Hogg can be next. Please?

I'd say the punch was CLEARLY justified. Stuffing the phone up his ass would have been borderline overkill. But the punch was a clean swing in my opinion.

That son, is what reality feels like.

As Dirty Harry said, nothing wrong with shooting, long as the right people get shot. We live in violent times, unfortunately it's rarely against the people who desperately need it.

To me it looked like the kid got off pretty easy, I don't think he hit him hard at all. Not nearly what he needed... and asked for.

If his daddy had whooped his ass more as a kid, maybe it would've prevented this goonish behavior and someone wouldn't have had to do it.

If you want to play adult games, be ready to accept adult consequences.

The Senators actions and words do not trouble me at all.

This. My only comment is, I wish that right hand would have landed better. That little POS needs an ass whipping big time, followed by his parents also receiving an ass whipping.

We no longer live in a civil society and we need to stop trying to convince anyone otherwise. We're past talking, action is now required.

Good for the Senator. The only problem I have with it is that he didn't knock him out cold.

He looks like a tough little shit though. It took three grown men to hold him down.

the punk forfeited his expectation for a response that was anything but a direct shot to the face with his own actions. would have liked to see him recieve a couple more clean shots. a lesson worth learning is worth learning well

I am also conflicted. Part of me says the guy should have kicked that twat right in the nads. The other part of me mourns the egg, which will never realize the greatness of being served over easy on a brisk March morning.

Well from what I've been reading eggs are deadly, so in my opinin this kid got off easy.

He got hit in the back of the head and his head felt wet. He could easily have thought, in the moment, that he just got slashed. Physical response is entirely justified.
If you touch someone, expect them to touch you back, harder.

"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams

“It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free."
-Niccolo Machiavelli

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken

I think the senator's actions were restrained.

Kid should have been picking pieces of the phone out of his teeth.

I'm guessing the chokehold he was in was not...pleasant. Little pissant.

I am good with it and would vote for this dude if I could.
Why do these people do these things? They have no fear of consequences. The time has come to give as good as you get.

This little kid didn't through the egg or toss the age, he slapped the Senator in the back of the head with an egg in his hand. You can see the sudden jerk forward if the Senators head as he was struck.

His reaction was normal for a person who just received an unprovoked slap in the head from behind. I would have laid this kid out too. I don't buy into this bullshit where they strike you then put up their hands as if to surrender so you can't hit them back. Bull... you picked a fight, I'm ending it. I'm not falling for your fake show of surrender so you can sucker punch me again.

There wasn’t time to check his ID. He hit the senator. The senator hit him back. Was there anything else?
