Failed assassination attempt caught on video

Pretty crazy video from Bulgaria where a guy tried to run on stage at a political convention and assassinate the speaker...apparently he needs to do more QC on the gun he chooses or needs to learn how to load it first!

Video - Breaking News Videos from CNN.com

Fantastic beat down. I love the old guy with the cane who runs up to join in the beat down. What was that idiot assassin thinking?

We watch the same video? I watched it three times and saw no cane.

Yep, no cane in that video. This might explain Rick's sometimes strange POV, he's seeing things through different eyes.

Sorry, I was watching the Daily Mail video clip when I opened this thread. It's here at 1:00 if you scroll down to the video.

...and the banner says: "ALLIANCE of LIBERALS and DEMOCRATS..."

That's what's funny.

The guy with the clipboard was pretty funny too. Not as good as the guy with the cane...

Most of them punch like girls.

Seriously what kind of security is that? The gun was literally two inches away.

Comedy capers... How'd he even get a gun in there in the first place?

Imagine if the same thing had happend in the US.

I'm guessing your Secret Service would have shot him as soon as they saw the gun.

It was a tear gas gun. Not much of an assassination attempt, just a dumbass move.

Weird country. Everything about the video is cartoonish, from the dipshyt "assassin" to the crowd assaulting him afterwards like some sissy version of a ghetto beat-down, to the reaction of the "assassin"...weird video.

I am sure the "assassin" could have gotten a genuine handgun in Bulgaria pretty easily if he had wanted to kill the speaker.

The speaker is the head of a minority Turkish party in Bulgaria. The way these party members beat the **** out o the "assassin" after he was subdued? I sure hope they remain a minority party!

Note that many of these countries now are in the European union. Even this minority party has a seat in the EU parliament in Brussels. IMHO the EU is doomed with all these banana republics being members.
