Sumner did not deserve to be beaten or even punched. Brooks and Keitt (both Democrats) should have been thrown into prison for the attack. It was not justifiable in any way.

Disagree completely. The man was running his mouth talking sh*t about an elderly member of the Senate, and he should have had his teeth punched out.

What was he hoping to accomplish by demonizing someone who disagreed with his beliefs?

A lot of modern problems would be less of a problem if obnoxious people hurling insults got their mouth punched.

That's the way the Left thinks. It's what Democrats do.

The Dems have never changed. They have been the party of violence from the 1800s to today.

Funny to see the modern democrats so defensive of the old time democrat slave owner’s actions against an abolitionist.
Things don’t change much...
