Sometimes, debates in legislatures can get a little too heated. The result: a scuffle breaks out on the floor of the chamber. This sort of thing tends to occur in non-Anglophone legislatures and has provided material for satirical TV shows for years. More dramatic slants, especially in Western literature, often draw on the assassination of Julius Caesar or Shakespeare's famous dramatization. May be the only interesting thing that Not-So-Omniscient Council of Bickering will ever do. Examples of Blood on the Debate Floor include:

Note: In Real Life, legislative violence is actually a fairly good indicator of democracy--if politicians are fighting in Parliament, it means their opinions differ, and differ publicly, and that the legislature is actually a powerful enough institution to be worth fighting over. Dictatorships tend to have very polite, well-mannered "legislative bodies". Examples of Blood on the Debate Floor include:
