People do not deserve to have a shoe thrown at them.

You do not deserve to have someone slap you or punch you in the face, either ... even though many people would applaud that action.

Well, if you watch the Bush video, he saw the man coming well before the shoe was tossed.

Harrier doesn't know how much time Mrs. Clinton had to see what was coming her way.

He still doesn't want her answering the phone at 3 a.m.

Even if it wasn't staged -- what's the big deal about throwing shoes at lying politicians like Hillary? The Obama administration has said that throwing rocks at border agents is no big deal and it's not an assault if they're pelted with rocks.

Why have a double standard? If it's okay to throw rocks at border agents, it should be okay to throw rocks or anything softer at politicians.

Source on where Obama says that border agents are fair game to have rocks thrown at them?

Why don't you go ahead and throw a shoe and then make this kind of statement to the authorities. It's against the law buddy.

In today's society you had BETTER learn to roll with the punches no matter who you are, pun is intended. Especially if you're a low life politician!

Better to be a shoe than a well placed rifle round.

A woman was taken into federal custody Thursday after throwing a shoe at Hillary Clinton as the former Secretary of State began a Las Vegas convention keynote speech.

The incident happened moments after Clinton took the stage before an Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting at the Mandalay Bay resort.

Clinton ducked, and she did not appear to be hit by the object. She then joked about it.

"Is that somebody throwing something at me? Is that part of Cirque de Soleil?" Clinton quipped.

Yes, she does, and she deserved the shoe. I wish it had hit her.

Agreed. I don't like her one tiny bit, but just as with Bush, I don't find it funny, or excusable, to be hurling things at people.
