Commentator and former presidential candidate Pat Buchanan cut short an appearance after an opponent of his conservative views doused him with salad dressing.

"Stop the bigotry!" the demonstrator shouted as he hurled the liquid Thursday night during the program at Western Michigan University. The incident came just two days after another noted conservative, William Kristol, was struck by a pie during an appearance at a college in Indiana.

"He could have faced a felony assault charge, but Pat Buchanan decided to not press that charge," university spokesman Matt Kurz said.

"Buchanan must be losing his sharpness he was assaulted by a demonstrator(in 92)he ended up laying quite a beating on the guy."I didn't know that.Two points for Pat.

I'm very aware who Pat thinks he is...but I ask again..."Who is Pat Buchanan"?

Should never have outlawed dueling. People would think twice before acting.

Liberal View: "I may disagree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death, well maybe not that far, but I will do my best to prevent you from saying it."

"He could have faced a felony assault charge, but Pat Buchanan decided to not press that charge"

He should have absolutely pressed charges. Would discourage future throwers. And would penalize them, as they deserve. Why is Buchanan giving them a free pass?

"Stop the bigotry!" the demonstrator shouted as he hurled the liquid...

I guess he wanted somebody to stop him.

When food is outlawed, only outlaws will have food.

This seems to be escalating - problem is, it can escalate to something more dangerous...doesn't take much for a ruckus to escalate into a mob
