the japanese parliament is hardcore (fist fight + video)

[alphatarget1]

wow, i was watching the news and there was a fight of some sort over the issue of whether sending japanese troops to help in iraq. this japanese woman (supposedly a member of the parliament) was so hardcore and the place was a mess

i wonder if that'll ever happen in the US congress. it'd be fun to watch dems and GOPs fight

EDIT for clarification & link:

this is literally a fist fight between a lot of members of the parliament and here is a link, they have a video too

they were FIGHTING. Literally. some minority party parliament members went over to the speaker and they threw punches, something like that.
