QuoteItalian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has been hit in the face and knocked to the ground after a political rally in Milan.

Video footage shows Mr Berlusconi with blood on his lips as he was whisked away from the scene in a car.

The BBC's Maxine Mawhinney and Duncan Kennedy explain events surrounding the incident.

These leftists are dangerous.  The next time that they hold an anti-Berlusconi hate-rally, the army should be called in to disperse the rabble.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Apparently the attacker used a statue of Milan's dome to hit him. Not cool.

While I dislike Berlusconi, violence is not an appropriate means in political discourse.

Politicians beating each other up is OK; normal civilians beating up politicians is not.

Has already been dubbed as mentally instable. Like always when a political figure is attacked.

The smiley in your OP introduced a note of ambiguity.

No, Schadenfreude.
Which is ambiguous in relation to the morality of the perpetrator.
