So this result was due to many Montana citizens not voting in a special election. Their only recourse now, if they want to have someone other than a thug represent them, is to recall him, if they can. Polls also show that they still approve of the thug in the White House who inspired Gianforte's behavior. This also needs to change, if Montana is to join the civilized world again.

Given the current reputation of the mainstream media beating up that reporter was probably helped him get elected.  Newspapers have been on life support for some time and these days only the geezers watch TV news.

One step beyond beating reporters is murdering them.

Pointing out that people are having problems with the mainstream media doesn't indicate that I necessarily approve.  It does show that the media and the political elites are out of step with much of the population.  Should this continue then it does seem likely that worse will happen to them.  Just because people are reacting as I expect doesn't mean I approve of it.

There is a solution to this problem but I very much doubt that the political class will be in favor of it.  I am pretty sure that you and Eric the Obtuse will not be.
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. -- H.L. Mencken

If one rejects laissez faire on account of man's fallibility and moral weakness, one must for the same reason also reject every kind of government action.   -- Ludwig von Mises
