14. We're getting close to violence.

The way these arrogant politicians treat the people, it's only a matter of time before the crowd goes after one of these jerks. They don't realize it, but they are literally trying to kill some of the people in the audience, and they get upset when some ignorant clown stands in front of them and says, "We have to kill you so the imaginary death panel doesn't get you." If I were in a crowd and there was a move to rush the podium, I could see myself throwing a few punches.
