These are the same folks that voted for a guy who claimed he could shoot someone in broad daylight and still not lose votes correct ? 

This is the opposite of a surprise.  A democrat was never ever going to win in Montana.  It probably scored him points with some of the voters up there. 

We have a Democratic senator and a democratic governor.  I think you need a little more knowledge of my state.

I believe there is a stereotype of that area being full of the cowboy, hick type people.

Well you're right that I don't know much about it.  I stand corrected.

The reporter was not from Fox News.  

No, but there were Fox News reporters present and they corroborated the reporter's story.

I could punch you for that and it would only be a misdemeanor.

If you buy him a drink afterwards, it is just a good ole fashioned disagreement.

I think that senator is up for reelection in 2018 if I'm not mistaken. That's one of the seats the GOP is targeting.

Ben Jacobs has a GoFundMe page to raise money to replace his broken glasses.

You can't make this stuff up. $5,600 raised so far and he wants it to go to some "Committee to Protect Journalists". The goal is $10,000.

LOL, I wonder who's going to get that money.

I am not in any way minimizing what he did.  In my mind he disqualified himself from pubic office.  It is imperative for the press to be free, even be annoying a-holes.  

He should not be a congressman.

This wasn't an issue of the press being denied their freedom to get a story. This is about one asshole who ignored the protocol to get that story, one of which is to respect the person they want to interview and work towards getting their time when it is not interrupting other events going on. 

There is a misconception that what he did was within the boundaries of his profession . Just because he has press credentials doesn't mean he has unlimited access.

Regardless what Gianforte did was inexcusable

It still doesn't justify assault.

Agreed. You should never hit a woman.
