Egg-Throwing Brawl Erupts in Ukranian Parliament
This will make you feel better about American legislators' childish antics: The Ukranian Parliament erupted into a brawl last night, with punching, egg-throwing, and opposition leaders setting off smoke bombs. The speaker shielded himself with an umbrella. Video and gallery.
Apparently the ruckus was over a deal to extend Russia's lease on a Navy base. The opposition wore Navy costumes, which is why the guys throwing eggs are all in jaunty striped tees and fancy pants. [HuffPo, BBC, images via AP]
