Hagan hurt in assault in café

Bobby Hagan, although a Democrat, has a long history of public service. He is all about his family, and now with the recent loss of his dear mother, he should hardly be subjected to physical violence. He is human just like the rest of us, and enjoys interacting with the public he represents - and why not. Not only is he handling this incident with dignity, but he will not throw the first stone, or, be that as it may, punch. I am not a Democrat, but I respect Rep. Hagan, and no public figure should ever be physically assaulted. I pray this does not become a trend. I was glad to see that Mr. Thomas did not know him, or claim to assault him based on his political views. Otherwise, other elected officials who choose to serve the public, usually at the sacrifice of much, would need to be concerned about their physical well-being. I like Bobby Hagan and I look forward to seeing the battle scares on his chin that show his devotion and pride to the causes he fights for.
