Dmitri ducks from the incoming shoe. He then gets up and nods to the officers of Parliament.

"Make sure he doesn't come back for the rest of the day."

He then turns to the MP as four officers make their way to him.

"As for you Mr. Abaroa, if you are going to fight me or threaten me, you do it to my face, not a distance away. Despite there being no rule here in Parliament, an act of aggression can be punished in the law in terms of assault. You will not come in here and start threatening people or for that matter, throw things at them. Don't come back in here until you know how to behave as a MP. As for your vote, I am not sure whether or not to count it later on, seeing as your intent was to cause a disturbance rather then vote the legislation at vote. So as of now, I won't count it. I hope you learn something here."

The four officers restraint Mr. Abaroa and remove him from the Parliament building.

Edit: I found out that you weren't released from the police at the time of this vote. Therefore this won't count.
