The Smith and Wesson Debate School: Jordanian Member of Parliament Pulls Gun On Debate Opponents

Jordanian MP Mohammed Shawabka has a more direct method of debate that most politicians. During a television debate with an activist, Shawabka first throws a shoe at his opponent and than pulls a gun on him — pointing it at him on live television.

The activist Mansour Sayf al-Din Murad was arguing with Shawabka over attitudes surrounding the uprising in Syria. The debate quickly turns into name calling and recriminations, with one saying “You’re a Mossad agent” and the other saying “You’re a big crook.”

When the MP pulled the silver pistol, the activist did not back down and walked toward him leading to a struggle and fight on the set.
