Stunning. Isn't that assault?

The guys with the camera are jerks, too.

Yours is a supposition. As they first posted this on Breitbart it's more than likely accurate. However, you cannot tell that from the video. They asked a question on camera and then were assaulted by the congressman, who has sense apologized, btw.

Asking a question "Do you support the Obama Agenda?" on camera is not an unequivocal sign of jerkdom. Being affilitated with Breitbart may very well be.

I thought it was an opinion.

I was referring to the questioner's failure to observe what were once customary social rituals:
"How are you"
" My name is ..."
"Do you have a moment ..."

I happen to agree with you. The good Congressman would have had my support if he would have politely asked them to identify themselves and said, "If you're not going to identify yourselves then I'm not going to talk to you." But, to do what he did was totally irresponsible.
