One thing I know for a fact is that politicians fighting is always funny. Now I’m sure this was sparked by some very serious topic but I would like to think it was just something silly like a zoning issue. They just couldn’t agree on it this should be residential land or made into a park and the only way to decide was to throw hands.
I think the greatest fight maybe ever was this one though.
Not even politically, this is just the best brawl I’ve ever seen. I think the biggest highlight of this video is the guy on the right in the bleachers casually waving the flag as people are throwing chairs at each other. That’s the level of not giving a fuck we should all strive for.
