Congressman Rob Etheridge Assaults Student

Showing his colors, Rep. Rob Etheridge (D-NC) physically assaulted a student on the street in Washington, D.C.  So far, charges have not been brought up against him, but the video plainly shows that he committed a criminal assault.

At the very minimum the House should apply some sort of disciplinary action for Rep. Etheridge’s violation of the House ethics rules.  Chances are instead, that he’ll get some kind of medal.

Addendum: I didn’t notice it at first, but take a close look at the time right after Rep. Etheridge grabs the young man’s wrist.  He attempts to spray him in the face with mace or pepper spray.  You can see the can in his hand as he finally moves away.
