I hear ya and agree.

Thing is, in this case, the kid never got the chance to be rude.

The drunk just went off.

Yeah, Etheridge is acting like he just caught the kid making out with his daughter! ;-)

I think these kids are very brave by taking a page out of James' and Hannah's book. The politicians need to learn that the world as they know it has changed. Once the consequences of 2008 started sinking in, people became PO'd. We will use any means at our disposal to regain our republic. They ignored our letters and calls. Now people are demanding answers on camera. They can ignore that if they want, but it would not be wise.

In the Internet age, an interesting YouTube video shot by a couple of teenagers can reach a larger audience than a "60 Minutes" show segment, and by its persistence on the net for months can have a much bigger total impact as it gets included and referred to by blogs and such. The MSM is losing its ability to shape opinion.
