It was honestly pretty common up until the last 100 years or so for politicians both in Canada and the United States to literally fight each other in the chambers of government. John A. McDonald the first Prime Minister of Canada had a reputation for it and prior to the civil war and afterward it was not rare for Northern and Southern politicians to get into blows. Bring it back I say.
They were pumped to have a brawl in the middle of a Senate hearing but they drew the line at saying “ass”. Good on them for showing such restraint and decorum 😂😂😂
Yesterday my friends and I were talking about the quote “war is the massacre of people who don’t know each other for the profit of people who hate each other but don’t massacre each other” and how we should just have politicians directly fight each other to determine the outcome of a war lol so this was really kind of iconic for me
It's true that we're ruled by spineless politicians who can send people off to die en masse to solve conflicts which can have really petty origins, and I used to think similarly, until it was explained to me that war would be entirely useless if fought like that, and that literally random people have to die for it to mean anything. Since wars are most often fought over real disputes like, "you have x and we need x so we will take x from you" or conversely, "we have x and we aren't willing to provide you with that much x so if you want more you have to take it from our dead hands," among many other situations. So if we were like, war sucks lets have the guys at the top fight an MMA match, we would have to agree that that would be the end of the dispute. But since no one really paid any price (no one was invaded, no one died, no one sacrificed) the dispute is unsettled. Both parties are in their starting positions and can still say, "oh yeah well how about this" and then make it a real war. Severe, devastating loss usually has to occur to get one side to capitulate to the other, unfortunately. If you could agree to settle your problems with a game, you aren't really at risk in the first place.
listening to charlie's passionate rants is the best when your eyes hurt from staying up too late so you can just lay back with your eyes closed and relax
I haven't seen anyone talk about how the guy who threw the insults and made the challenge originally, backed out after being offered not only an acceptable, but encouraged means to fight like he wanted. Like literally a 2 for one, a chance to fight and to do so for charity, only to wuss out after being confronted.
An undefeated 5-0 MMA fighter and a very accomplished wrestler. It wouldn't have been close. Union guy would have gotten smashed faster than he could get his butt out of the chair.
Normally I would bet on the union guy, the guy who fights and works for a living, but the senator has actual fighting experience. It would be hype for sure.
Dude, Lincoln was challenged to a duel back in his day, and got his pick of weapons. He chose Cavalry broadswords. His superior reach and strength scared the man into a truce after the first swing by Lincoln. Not that long ago…
It really wasn’t that long ago in the wider picture. Lincoln was president in the 1860’s around the civil war. WW1 soldiers grand parents were in the civil war. Revolutionary war was in the late 1700’s and you can find a photo online of the last surviving revolutionary war veteran.
There was also an incident shortly before Lincoln became president where a congressman got beaten near death with a cane, and after that congressman started carrying weapons.
Ever since I saw those Brazilian politicians have an mma fight because they couldn’t agree, I have had a firm belief all members of congress should be able to challenge each other to single combat, it would genuinely fix everything wrong with our government
Fights have happened on the senate floor and house floor before in the past, the most notable is when representative Brooks beat another house member with his cane
Because it's not a real challenge and it's for fake clout. That man wasn't going to fight anyone. I would not be surprised if him and Bernie rehearsed it. Fighting over a tweet as a grown ass adult? No likely.
There's a law that's extremely similar to what Charlie is talking about, and yes it is a real thing. Referred to as "challenge to mutual combat", this law is only in the states of Oregon, Washington and Texas. This law allows for two consenting parties to challenge one another to mutual combat without harming bystanders or damaging property. The altercation must not result in serious bodily injury, or participants can face charges.
ya man sorry to inform you but as an Oregonian, mutual combat hasnt been a thing since 2012 (i think thats when it got voted out) so ya no brawls anymore. However washington and texas both have those laws
In Texas and Washington state, it is fully legal to challenge and fight a consenting participant in mutual combat. As long as neither is seriously maimed or killed it is fully legal. No weapons. You can even get a constable or police officer to spectate. No chance of jail time.
It is allowed to scream any word you want wherever, but not in a school. You can challenge somebody to a fight, but a government building and senate hearings have rules. A fight goes against those rules.
Would be great fight to watch for sure . Maybe they could even become friends after . It happens after fight people know and respect each other much more
there’s a case similar to this where 2 lawyers agreed to fight walked outside fought but only one of them came back because the other guy got embarrassed he was running his mouth and got his ass beat 😂
It's crazy how like 10 years ago, a simple passionate scream at a rally could ruin an elected official's presidential run, but nowadays a senator can threaten to fight someone in an official hearing and will probably be re-elected by his base.
It wasn't a threat it was a challenge because the man who was challenged by mullen was running his mouth about his family and him etc. It was a challenge between two consenting adults, one which either party could back down and not do. You make it seem like mullen was this menacing untouchable force trying to silence someone when it's really a case of some shit talker getting challenged to fight lmfao
@@SolaireOAstoraEverything the Union Boss said was completely true... Mullen was given the plumbing company by his sick father and, only snowflakes let Twitter comments rile them up to the point of fighting in the middle of Senate hearing 😂
I would've like to see this. It's really sad though we live in a time when senators post tough guy messages back and forth on social media like a child would. Civilization is most certainly regressing back to the "stupid ages" as Chuck would say.
@@paulwilliams667 Holy shit. the cope oozing from you answer.

"How do you think he got out of actually working for a living." Its funny how you guys quickly go mask-off tho.
Parliamentary brawls are not that uncommon around the world actually, so if this had happened it would've just joined the esteemed ranks of modern day political fisticuffs. There's a few that look like proper moshpit fights. You already react to car chase videos, how about a series where you react to different parliamentary fights and just individual politician fights or tough guy behaviour? Might be a short lived series compared to other ones but the comedic value is there.
Historically speaking the US senate has been the site of more fights than the House. Ironically, the Founders thought it would be the other way around, which is why the Sargent at arms in the House has a ceremonial Mace.
US congress critters used to fight in session, with walking sticks and canes. Quit happening sometime around the end of Reconstruction. Congressmen used to carry bowie knives and pistols to work. Back in the late 1790's, a rather violent fight broke out over a congressman spitting tobacco juice into another's eye. I'm glad to see the tradition returning. Way better to have politicians fight each other, than beating the taxpayers every waking moment like usual.
As mentioned before washington state and texas are the only two states that have mutual combat laws. If you agree to mutual combat in that state you can legally fight each other with some restrictions of course and I think maybe a witness. Ever since my dad learned about it, he has challenged people to mutual combat, no one has yet to accept his offer. We live in washington.
NYS has mutual combat as well. When I got choked out by a black man the cops told me it was mutual combat because I approached him The dude was my boss and asked me to come over to where he was. So it’s my fault according to the police. When I went to see what he wanted he shoved me in a cooler with no camera. Slammed three times then squeezed my neck so hard his hand print was on my throat After reviewing the cameras. Cops said I willingly engaged and because I was in the cooler longer than him I was choking myself to frame him because women break their bones to frame men in domestic disputes. The worst police encounter I’ve ever had. Got assaulted at work and told it’s my fault we’re not doing anything.

@@HoudiniSS83 , amateur fights and he fought the same guy 3 different times, that person has a combined record of 1 and 13. If you think an amateur MMA fighter can beat the leader of the teamsters, I’ve got a bridge in NY to sell you.
I say if they both consent to a fight to settle differences, let them leave the hall so they can go at it while other business is discussed. That way it’s not a spectacle or halting the flow of the meeting; and it doesn’t turn the meeting hall into a place of violence, but of decision-making. I’d also like to see the challenger’s face when everyone lets them actually fight, because he issued the challenge in one of the only places that was guaranteed to keep it from happening.
I've known mullen from when I was little because he trained at a martial arts gym I used to goto with my dad. He's 100% serious and would definitely fight its not some internet tough guy callout it was genuine.

The one and only time congressional members have reportedly had physical altercation in a government building was in 1856. It’d have been interesting to see one live! Context (from wiki): The caning of Charles Sumner, or the Brooks-Sumner Affair, occurred on May 22, 1856, in the United States Senate chamber, when Representative Preston Brooks, a pro-slavery Democrat from South Carolina, used a walking cane to attack Senator Charles Sumner, an abolitionist Republican from Massachusetts. The attack was in retaliation for an invective-laden speech given by Sumner two days earlier in which he fiercely criticized slaveholders, including pro-slavery South Carolina Senator Andrew Butler, a relative of Brooks. The beating nearly killed Sumner and contributed significantly to the country's polarization over the issue of slavery.
@@archstanton664I just looked that up, apparently that was in 1832, and it was on Pennsylvania Avenue. Houston was almost shot though, the gun misfired.
In the 1800's it was very common for politicians to solve there issues with fighting.(also some duels) So you had to make sure your candidate could hold his own incase someone got a little squirrely during a senate hearing.

Dude, Lincoln was challenged to a duel back in his day, and got his pick of weapons. He chose Cavalry broadswords. His superior reach and strength scared the man into a truce after the first swing by Lincoln. Not that long ago…
I mean it was pretty long ago
There was also a fight in the 1790s I believe when someone spit tobacco at another
Four score and two hundred years ago
It really wasn’t that long ago in the wider picture.
Lincoln was president in the 1860’s around the civil war.
WW1 soldiers grand parents were in the civil war.
Revolutionary war was in the late 1700’s and you can find a photo online of the last surviving revolutionary war veteran.
There was also an incident shortly before Lincoln became president where a congressman got beaten near death with a cane, and after that congressman started carrying weapons.
Ever since I saw those Brazilian politicians have an mma fight because they couldn’t agree, I have had a firm belief all members of congress should be able to challenge each other to single combat, it would genuinely fix everything wrong with our government
Fights have happened on the senate floor and house floor before in the past, the most notable is when representative Brooks beat another house member with his cane
Bernie just sounds so much like an unenthusiastic grandpa trying to get his grandkids to stop rough housing in the livingroom

Because it's not a real challenge and it's for fake clout. That man wasn't going to fight anyone. I would not be surprised if him and Bernie rehearsed it. Fighting over a tweet as a grown ass adult? No likely.

@@grantschade2072 I said I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't, not that it actually was. However it is equally as fake as if it were

There's a law that's extremely similar to what Charlie is talking about, and yes it is a real thing. Referred to as "challenge to mutual combat", this law is only in the states of Oregon, Washington and Texas. This law allows for two consenting parties to challenge one another to mutual combat without harming bystanders or damaging property. The altercation must not result in serious bodily injury, or participants can face charges.
Except Oregon specifically bans mutual combat
"To the death?" "No. To the pain."
ya man sorry to inform you but as an Oregonian, mutual combat hasnt been a thing since 2012 (i think thats when it got voted out) so ya no brawls anymore. However washington and texas both have those laws

In Texas and Washington state, it is fully legal to challenge and fight a consenting participant in mutual combat. As long as neither is seriously maimed or killed it is fully legal. No weapons. You can even get a constable or police officer to spectate. No chance of jail time.
It is allowed to scream any word you want wherever, but not in a school. You can challenge somebody to a fight, but a government building and senate hearings have rules. A fight goes against those rules.

Honestly, im surprised that one dude offered to meet up and talk out their differences, not as cool as a fight, but it still surprises me
The one dude is a trained fighter and look at the size of him. He’s a unit. He’d destroy that senator.
It's crazy how like 10 years ago, a simple passionate scream at a rally could ruin an elected official's presidential run, but nowadays a senator can threaten to fight someone in an official hearing and will probably be re-elected by his base.
Because fighting is cool.
We want leaders who stand up for themselves at the least. Not a clown show.
It wasn't a threat it was a challenge because the man who was challenged by mullen was running his mouth about his family and him etc. It was a challenge between two consenting adults, one which either party could back down and not do. You make it seem like mullen was this menacing untouchable force trying to silence someone when it's really a case of some shit talker getting challenged to fight lmfao
@@SolaireOAstoraEverything the Union Boss said was completely true... Mullen was given the plumbing company by his sick father and, only snowflakes let Twitter comments rile them up to the point of fighting in the middle of Senate hearing 😂

Parliamentary brawls are not that uncommon around the world actually, so if this had happened it would've just joined the esteemed ranks of modern day political fisticuffs. There's a few that look like proper moshpit fights. You already react to car chase videos, how about a series where you react to different parliamentary fights and just individual politician fights or tough guy behaviour? Might be a short lived series compared to other ones but the comedic value is there.
Can’t remember where exactly (Zimbabwe comes to mind could be wrong) where they regularly have brawls in house of parliament and it’s wild.
Egg
U.S senators used to have duels with pistols.
Historically speaking the US senate has been the site of more fights than the House. Ironically, the Founders thought it would be the other way around, which is why the Sargent at arms in the House has a ceremonial Mace.
US congress critters used to fight in session, with walking sticks and canes. Quit happening sometime around the end of Reconstruction. Congressmen used to carry bowie knives and pistols to work. Back in the late 1790's, a rather violent fight broke out over a congressman spitting tobacco juice into another's eye.
I'm glad to see the tradition returning. Way better to have politicians fight each other, than beating the taxpayers every waking moment like usual.
As mentioned before washington state and texas are the only two states that have mutual combat laws. If you agree to mutual combat in that state you can legally fight each other with some restrictions of course and I think maybe a witness. Ever since my dad learned about it, he has challenged people to mutual combat, no one has yet to accept his offer. We live in washington.
NYS has mutual combat as well. When I got choked out by a black man the cops told me it was mutual combat because I approached him
The dude was my boss and asked me to come over to where he was. So it’s my fault according to the police.
When I went to see what he wanted he shoved me in a cooler with no camera. Slammed three times then squeezed my neck so hard his hand print was on my throat
After reviewing the cameras. Cops said I willingly engaged and because I was in the cooler longer than him
I was choking myself to frame him because women break their bones to frame men in domestic disputes. The worst police encounter I’ve ever had. Got assaulted at work and told it’s my fault we’re not doing anything.

I say if they both consent to a fight to settle differences, let them leave the hall so they can go at it while other business is discussed. That way it’s not a spectacle or halting the flow of the meeting; and it doesn’t turn the meeting hall into a place of violence, but of decision-making. I’d also like to see the challenger’s face when everyone lets them actually fight, because he issued the challenge in one of the only places that was guaranteed to keep it from happening.
I've known mullen from when I was little because he trained at a martial arts gym I used to goto with my dad. He's 100% serious and would definitely fight its not some internet tough guy callout it was genuine.
But it should be a spectacle. Why not?
He is certainly more physically fit.

The one and only time congressional members have reportedly had physical altercation in a government building was in 1856. It’d have been interesting to see one live!
Context (from wiki): The caning of Charles Sumner, or the Brooks-Sumner Affair, occurred on May 22, 1856, in the United States Senate chamber, when Representative Preston Brooks, a pro-slavery Democrat from South Carolina, used a walking cane to attack Senator Charles Sumner, an abolitionist Republican from Massachusetts. The attack was in retaliation for an invective-laden speech given by Sumner two days earlier in which he fiercely criticized slaveholders, including pro-slavery South Carolina Senator Andrew Butler, a relative of Brooks. The beating nearly killed Sumner and contributed significantly to the country's polarization over the issue of slavery.
