Brawl in Alabama State Senate on Video
06.08.07 (8:33 am)   [edit]

This video shows how the state of Alabama solves their lawmaking problems.  In this video you will see Republican Senator Charles Bishop punching Democratic Senator Lowell Barron in the side of the head.

Senator Barron has not decided if he will bring charges against Senator Bishop as of yet.

What a way to do buisness don't you think.

You need to report the whole story. Bishop punched Barron because he claims Barron called him a "son of a bitch." Honestly, there ought to be more of this going on in our legislation. IF Barron mouthed off, he deserved it. Call it a variation on Heinlein's "A well-armed society is a polite society."

"The fight came on the final day of the 2007 regular session of the Legislature as Republican senators were using delaying tactics to force the Democratic leadership to bring up an election reform bill to ban transfers of campaign donations between political action committees.

Republican senators and a few dissent Democrats have been using delaying tactics in the Senate all session to protest Senate rules formed by the Democratic majority that the minority coalition says are unfair."

Democrats opposed to campaign reform, say it ain't so!

wow, like when Chenny told the Senator to Fuck off. You did'nt see the senator punch Chenny in the side of head did you? As you say if you mouth off lyou deserve it! Also the GOP guy does'nt know how to fight, he did'nt even put his shoulder into the punch, it's like a girl punch. I find very funny the party that said they are tough on terrorism can't even throw a proper punch.

Well, yeah, maybe Cheney should have gotten popped in the mouth. Of course, Cheney would have probably cleaned Leahy's clock, but like they say, mess with the bull...you get the horns. Would have been worth watching.

Haven't seen the actual video, so I can't speak as to how feminine his punch was. Hey, maybe Dick Cheney could conduct a seminar.

Anyway, where I come from telling someone to go fuck themselves isn't quite as severe as insulting one's mother. Them old guys don't tolerate that as much as the younger ones might.
