Yesterday,they had a disagreement at the Ukraine Parliament and ”This happened!
I would think,the Ukraine Parliament would be a highly secured location under very tight security.
My question:How was anyone able to bring raw eggs and a smoke bomb into the building and why would politicians bring them into the building to begin with?

Eh, it happens. Parliaments in Asia (Korea comes to mind) break out in fights all the time. Guess that happens when so many of their members are familiar with martial arts.

The Mexican Congress deserves a special mention, particularly the guy who once broke in riding a horse. True story: http://www.diputadosfederalespan.org.mx/adjuntos/06(15).pdf.

@Simone_De_Beauvoir But those examples do not begin to compare with what happened in the Ukrainian Parliament.
