Fighting in Parliament

Fighting of Parliament members. - The parliament members are the law makers of a country.But some times they themselves become unruly .Even they use to engage in fighting physically . This is one of the drawbacks of the Parliamentary Democracy.

Last 22 July two groups of women members of the South Korean Parliament engaged in fighting.They used fists, pulling hairs and dragged each other.The news media says, to pass a bill on the ownership of private TV channels the members of the ruling Grand National Party surrounded the speaker of the Parliament.Then the opposition parliament members brought there chairs and tables and tried to dragged away the ruling party members.During both parties argument the women members began to fight each other.Some of them also got injury . A woman member was rushed to the hospital.Because her blood pressure was risen.Fighting in South Korean Parliament is not a new event.The members are accustomed to such incident.

More or less this is the picture of all the parliaments of the world. Karl Marx compared parliament with pig's yard.

I guess this is also commonplace in Taiwan's parliment. I want to see congress go at it sometimes. I think to turn on C-span and see Pelosi and Grahm yarding on each other's hair and throwing punches would be simply hillarious. Let them all finish each other off so we can get some real public servants in there. This is pretty much what they do in that hill ammounts to anyway.

Last time I saw a fight in S. Korean Parliament everyone seemed to be throwing fists. These seem to be very excitable folks.
