'You, sir, shut up!': Republican congressman shouts down a constituent at tense town hall

A Republican congressman from Texas is caught in a firestorm after he told a constituent to "shut up." Rep. Joe Barton (R-Tex.) was speaking Saturday at a town hall in Frost, a small town not far from Arlington, when he said he opposed federal legislation protecting women from violence because it is a state issue.
