The two videos posted of the egg being thrown and the guy spitting...those are both cases of battery against the politician so defense against further infringements on their personal safety is warranted (check local laws, mmkay?)
But that's much different than what happened with Rep. Bob Etheridge. HE is the one that instigated battery on the student by forcefully grabbing him and not letting him go upon request. In that instance, it was the student's right to defend himself against further infringement on his personal safety. The student never instigated contact and never disallowed him to continue on his way (less frequently known in cases between two civilians as an "arrest").
There was never a threat to the Rep. at any time...all the students did was ask a simple question and he responded with unwarranted and uninitiated physical force. The act of forcefully grabbing someone and not letting go upon request is considered battery and the victim is generally allowed by law to retaliate in such a way that he/she is able to free themselves of said battery (again, check your local laws, mmkay).

Edit and disclosure: Local, federal, and state laws vary WIDELY on this issue so be sure to check before you can chop someone in the throat or break their nose for grabbing your arm. My experiences with these types of laws come strictly from military law enforcement (former US Navy Master-at-Arms) and are applicable on any United States military post, base, command, etc. You ARE allowed a reasonable retaliation of force if you are the victim of threatening assault and/or battery. "Reasonable" being the key term here.
Oh great NOW you put in the disclosure? After reading your first post I assaulted my next door neighbor.
+rep. I know that fucker and he deserved it.
But seriously, I put that in because I've seen some of the weirdo, one-post-wonders that post in this forum on occasion and though highly unlikely, I don't like the idea of getting subpoenaed because some idiot read my post and decided to go...well...assault his next door neighbor and tell the cops "some guy on the interwebz told me to do it!"
a truly bad reaction on Etheridge´s part. he is probably regretting every second of it, moaning and wishing he could have done it differently. too late now.
stuff like this stick on voter´s mind, maybe not
