Things that made you laugh today (Political Version)

No, I think usually motherfuckers just hand over the microphone. Acosta was being a dipshit.

Yeah, he should have been removed for being a disruptive tard. That girl should have kneed him in his tiny balls and taken the mic.

THAT would have been assault.. and also, unless she's a sharpshooter.. nearly impossible to hit him there.

Not getting into the politics of this, but it would make a great Torts exam question. Assault, (or battery when physical contact occurs) can extend to objects like if someone smacked a coffee cup out of your hand or pulled a chair out from under you. She probably committed battery first by attempting to grab the mike and his contact appeared to be purely in self-defense, just enough to stop the initial battery. The closer question I suppose is whether his conduct reached the level where physical force was justified, but as he was not being physically disruptive (prior to the mic being grabbed), I would wager not.

Not really her fault and she was in a bad position. She's an intern, panicked, and just started grabbing. If she yelled "Sir PLEASE HAND ME THE MICROPHONE" it would have been much more effective.

Actually most of us were taught this lesson in kindergarten, it went like this.

When the head of the classroom tells little jimmy that it's someone else's turn, little jimmy needs to sit down, be quiet and keep his hands to himself. If little jimmy can't do this he gets sent to time out.

If we are needing to test this on Torts exams, we have much bigger problems to be concerned about.

Shouldn’t one of the security personnel acted in the according manner to diffuse the situation? Trump multiple times verbally closed off the discussion and that person should not have acted to take the microphone or needed to, one of the security personnel authorized to do the moving should have intervened and escorted dude out in my opinion at least.

Also if she wanted that mic she should have swept dude and then Kimuraed the ish out of his arm, if your going to go for the mic fucking go for it!

Yeah and then the media would then say he is a dictator. The idiot wasn’t even asking questions - he just started opining.

The media is the enemy of the people and CNN is at the forefront.

Nobody in that video looks competent.

Should be noted that you cleaned out someone's account and tried to get someone here fired from their rl job.

Yes, because zooming in qualifies as "doctored". Keep up the great work spreading fake news.

Speeding up Acosta's actions is what was doctored, you Alex Jones wannabe.
