Some other brawl, some other time in a South Korean parliament session.
A meeting of a South Korean political party ended in a brawl this weekend after tempers ran high over a recent scandal.

The minor left-wing United Progressive Party (UPP) met Saturday to discuss a vote-rigging scandal at the party's primary in March. Four members stepped up to the stage, as tempers began to reach a boil.

100 angry UPP members then rushed the stage, claiming a decision to create an emergency committee was illegal and a no-holds-barred, free for all ensued.

Political brawls are nothing new for South Korea. A number of fist fights have broken out in the National Assembly which is in contrast to the US where numerous reports of nothingness are reported on a daily basis.
