Paul Ryan faces more sad but still makes a "funny."

What happened, if you can't see the video, is that an older gentleman who exclaimed that he paid into the "entitlement programs" that Paul Ryan was decrying as being so expensive, was led out of the townhall meeting and was treated somewhat brutally.  He was also handcuffed. Rep. Ryan's charming quip?  "I hope he's taking his blood pressure medication!"  Because old people need lots of expensive medications sometimes to live! And because stress can be a real killer! Oh, what a funny, charming man that Paul Ryan can be!

Of course, this is probably more funny to you if you are a relatively young and healthy man with a taxpayer-provided healthcare plan given to you as a congressman, than it would be for someone who has paid into a so-called "entitlement program" (which I would say one is certainly entitled to if one has paid into it, yes?) and were of retirement age and possibly facing some degree of health crisis.  That latter person wouldn't find it funny at all, and for that matter, I don't find it especially funny.  It was kind of callous and ageist and you know what?   Having one's staff call the police because you're too big a baby to answer questions from your constituents is pretty weak.
