I'm pretty sure that Steve King is going to be lauded for his passion in this clip by fellow Tea Baggers. Then again, there may not be anything said by conservatives, as they tend to shy away when they realize it's they that tend to get violent when their actions and words are thrown back at them.
It's quite clear that Victor Zapanta never once accused King of being a murderer, so King's outburst is not only unjustified, but completely and totally out of line.
Isn't there some recourse against King for assaulting Zapanta in such a way? I'm certain that when pressed about it, people will say "it's not like he hit the guy", but you have to understand that this is a sitting member of Congress and is held to a higher standard than others. His behavior, and that of the remaining members of Congress, are looked upon as representative of his/her districts.
Then again, I'm honestly not surprised that it was Steve King to pull this kind of stunt. With his viewpoints and his rhetoric, it was bound to happen sooner or later. I'm fairly sure that King knew he was pushing the edges of what he could and couldn't do and stepped just enough over the edge to where he would escape any damage to his political appointment should the time arise where people started considering whether or not he was fit to represent them. Then again, I could be wrong.
A Blog Version Of The Inside Of My Head. The place where politics, film, the media, music, pop culture, and random topics collide in an orgy of neo-philisophical randomness that would make your mother scream.
