And as is usually the case, when one person finally has had enough and raises hell, like every one of us should be, our fellow citizens stare vapidly until cops come and drag us off.

A state representative blew his top Tuesday on the floor of the Illinois State House of Representatives, flinging a copy of a new pension reform proposal into the air and telling his stoic colleagues that they "should be ashamed" of themselves.

"I'm sick of it!" state Rep. Mike Bost yelled, saying the bill was too long for lawmakers to read before voting on it. "These damn bills that come out here all the damn time, come out here at the last second. I've got to try to figure out how to vote for my people. ... You should be ashamed of yourselves!"

The proposal, Senate Bill 1673, had been approved by a state pension committee just hours before heading to the House floor for debate.

"I feel like somebody trying to be released from Egypt! Let my people go!" Bost said, as his fellow lawmakers shifted uncomfortably around him. "My God, they sent me here to vote for them!"

He ended his tirade by pushing the microphone away and falling into his seat.

Said "CBS This Morning" host Erica Hill on Wednesday, "Those are the kinds of things we see from Parliament overseas somewhere, not necessarily in the Illinois state Legislature."

BRAVO!!!!

 

[GunnyFreedom]

Ha! and these criminals say I'M too abrasive...

Mind you, I say the same things, I just...say them calmly...

That was not "stoicism" or "uncomfortable shifting" displayed by the fellow house members.

That was bovine like apathy; placid, vapid, disinterest.

I've seen that look before, most recently when reminding my fellow citizens, placidly standing in line waiting for their TSA interrogation, that they had a constitutional right to not answer any questions posed to them by federal officers.

Dull, glazed, apathy, tinged with a slight edge of fear, is what came back.

Which explains why I was only one of 48 people, out of of 132,000, that refused TSA "chat downs" in Boston.

If you are waiting for your freedom to be restored due to some sort of "mass awakening" by people like this, you have a better chance of seeing God first.

and put you in a white room with fluffy walls.

 

[Demigod]

Is it just me or that old guy below him was moving his lips according to his speech but 1 second in advance.

 

[Anti Federalist]

and put you in a white room with fluffy walls.

If you're lucky.

If not you'll get tased, beat, and thrown in a jail cell to lay in a puddle of vomit and piss.

Basically 48 people would have been shot in the head, 132,000 in chains and leg irons...but with Ipads and Carles JR!

There is a congressmen sitting in front of him, he is clapping while he says he is "here for my people, to argue for them"....is he clapping in support? I wish he would STAND up with the congressmen that is yelling! Nice to see that SOME of our congressmen are not completely in denial.
