Things are heating up…
A heckler at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) town hall on Tuesday was tased by police as supporters of the congresswoman cheered.
At least three people were removed from the town hall after interrupting the event, including a man who had to be tased by police after he became violent.
In footage of the incident, posted by several reporters, multiple police officers could be seen struggling to restrain the man while escorting him out of the venue.
Watch:
After the man became violent and lashed out against the officers, shouting, “Get the fuck off me!” two officers could be seen deploying their tasers against him as Greene’s audience cheered and applauded.
“Don’t move! Stop!” an officer could be heard shouting at the man as he continued to resist arrest.
Greene then declared, “This is a peaceful town hall. Now, this is a peaceful town hall, ladies and gentlemen. This should not have to happen. This is a town hall.”
“Like I said before, this isn’t a political rally or a protest. I held a town hall tonight. You know who was out of line? The protesters,” Greene told reporters after the event. “There was a place designated outside for the protesters because we support their First Amendment right. So you know who was out of line? The protesters. The police did a great job, I am very thankful.”
Two other protesters were also removed from the town hall by police, including a man who could be seen resisting officers and asking, “Are you really doing this?” After the man continued to resist, officers could be seen pushing the man to the floor and handcuffing him.
Early on, a young woman went off on Greene as the congresswoman spoke about immigration. In particular, Greene said that “illegal alien criminals, cartels, and terrorists” are living at the U.S. southern border with Mexico and are “all inside the interior of the United States.”
Immediately after delivering the line, the protestor stood up and said “How about the KKK?”
“All inside the interior of the United States,” Greene repeated, as an officer approached the woman in the audience.
“The protest is outside,” Greene said. “Thank you very much. Protest is outside.”
“You butch-bodied bigot!” the woman yelled as she was being escorted out. Many in the crowd stood and applauded after the woman left the room.

I grew up on a farm and noticed that whenever animals, such as goats, horse, cows, pigs etc. did NOT behave, they were removed from the rest of the group and or tied in a corner until they could be social.
I don’t remember that any of them were Tased, but them tasers were not in fashion at that time.
Not Tased, but we had electric cattle prods.
Protest peacefully and maintain decorum but for Democrats they cannot do that! Their stock and trade politically is vitriol, violence and hatred of anyone who doesn’t agree with them. I guess none of them passed a Civics course in school! In a nutshell here is what a protestor should know:
Civics education aims to empower individuals to participate effectively in their communities and democracy. It helps students understand the importance of active citizenship, promotes informed decision-making, and fosters a sense of responsibility towards society. Nowhere does it promote violence, disruption and vitriolic towards others.
More low IQ paid protestors, which we will have to endure for the next 4 years. Butch bodied bigot is a new one for me!!
