Re: I don’t see problem with Eth’s behavior.
The story is not complete yet. We have to see Eth’s response, nor the reporter’s for that matter. Eth is too smart to do anything public that doesn’t serve him in some way.
There’s a tendency of some posters to overract to a minor event, not because of the event itself but because of which side the participants are on. I would like those individuals to make their tagline “I am immature”.
Now he has posted a response. It doesn't deny he committed the crimes we saw.

What planet do you hail from?
What's not to see. Ethridge walks up the sidewalk. The young reporter asks a simple question. Ethridge assaults the young reporter, demands his name, and steals his phone. Then, he walks away. There is nothing else that can be said that will undo the facts as recorded here.
Ethridge can't be a democrat and be smart at the same time - the two are mutually exclusive.
"Eth" is backing down from his idiocy faster than you're backing down from yours.
That should tell you something.
Wrong. He's toast - he's already apologized but there's no excuse for it.
Even with ABC spinning him grabbing the kid by the neck "in an obvious effort to show his face on camera" - you don't grab people by the neck and manhandle them.
Here’s Eth’s response. Do you think he should have said “The kid deserved it?” instead?
“I deeply and profoundly regret my reaction and I apologize to all involved,” he said in a statement released by his office.
