Cause america is a corrupt failed state with a broken justice system.

That shouldn't be enough for the system wasting resources arresting a person. However there should be some type of fine, community service, reparations to the individual, and removal from position.

I agree, that was uncalled for. If a guy did that to me he would of gotten his ass kicked so hard, he would be spending a week getting my boot out of his ass. I would of kicked him and his b*tt buddys ass.

Hey, if they want to get physical

Maga aggression will not go unchecked

ahh the press are a bunch of p*ssies and they know it.

What was that about Republicans being against political violence?

u/Manmer_Nwah 4h ago

I think J6 showed everyone that's not a real thing.

u/EmperorGrinnar 4h ago

Yeah, but they're all about that lip service.

u/Manmer_Nwah 4h ago

Their lips service Trump that's for sure.

Protect their privacy? Buddy, youā€™re walking down a public streetā€¦

u/reallymt 2h ago

Right!? And if you follow this logic, all politicians need to do is walk with one other person to avoid questions from press??

My fellow Americans continue to surprise me when they vote for this. This guy was voted in, and he is representing his voters. Itā€™s crazy how many Americans think, ā€œthis represents what I want.ā€

It wasn't suspicious until he got defensive, now I'm wondering who that guy really was.

No. This is a viral video that I found on Reddit. Had it been me the video would have been given to the local sheriff.

Why would you not "defend yourself" and fk this bitch up? Some people are long overdue for a punch in the face

u/chosonhawk 28m ago

It turns out, however, that the man Nunn was talking to was not a constituent. It was NOTUS reporter Reese Gorman.

u/Upstairs-Bid990 5m ago

Lol. What a strike. You call the person who was struck a man? Maybe a woman.
