That kid got away with a very stupid assault and now is being heralded as a hero. Others are going to get ideas and imitate him. A night in jail would do him good. And others who want to emulate.I was being facetious. But I certainly don't see it rising to the level of jail or even charges. Shakespeare's audiences threw rotten vegetables at the actors if they were getting bored. The actors got the message and threw in more dirty jokes. If I were giving a speech and got hit with an egg, I'd ask for a hankie and keep going. Except it sounds like his audience was all busy pounding this egg throwing kid, so maybe he'd have to wait a couple minutes. I wouldn't have let it stop me, though, and if the senator has increased security, it is for his words, not because the cops are worried about the lethality of an egg.Well, we are just different. I think it was a childish act and if not stopped could lead to bigger assaults later on. We have to respect different thoughts about anything. He took the Senator's freedom of speech away regardless of how deplorable someone may think it was.If he was my son, I'd give him a lecture and then buy him a dozen eggs.And they let the kid go after not charging him with assault! Blows my mind. If he was my sone, I'd march him down to Police Headquarteers and demand he be charged!
The kid needs a copuple days in jail.
