You mean the Soros rent-a-mob showed up again. Believe me, they have nothing better to do.
I hope they videotaped the agitators. Would be interesting to make their identities public. Expose them for what they are - paid Democrat thugs.
Why not have to show your ID proving that you are a resident of the district to get in to the hall.
They should be forced to present a voter id card to confirm they live in the district. At the very least, present a driver’s license...which in itself should make their liberal heads explode.
Town hall meetings are not working if you are a patriot. They’re not even working for many who are not. Representatives know this and do not address it and the purpose of the damn thing is therefore wholly defeated.
What is wrong with a remote screen that at least guarantees the safety of the rep, or even having an invitation only affair, arranged by a county party chairman, who knows the constituents who vote, participate in the party and appreciate the chance to Q&A with their representative.
These Leftist noise makers are not identified and it is unknown if they fit that description in any way, shape or form. Enough!
Simple solution to this: Send a letter to constituents telling them about town hall. Tell them their name will be checked with a list of current legal residents at the door, if your name is not on the list, and you can’t prove residence, you can’t come in.

Brat is an upcoming star in the Conservative movement and was put there to REPEAL Obamacare and not put in some washed down version that only repealed 10% of it. After the voters turned out for him to remove Cantor they may feel they have been shorted and the back and back shouting is only because that the HA is such a dynamite issue with a very short fuse.
So if someone can explain why we can cast out that these are just upset Republican voters instead of hired thugs it would be most appreciated.
Have the speakers use overhead projection that makes their points despite the crowd noise
FAKE constituents...just roll on and ignore.
Anything that emanates from the AP is always suspect. In this report Sara Rankin, while mentioning it, chooses not to reflect on who the protestors are or their purposeful disruption.

Our reps have tele-townhall meetings.
You get a call from them announcing the meeting and if you want to participate, you listen in and can enter something on your phone to get in line to ask a question and he addresses them one at a time, and very kindly, but firmly, limits the time they can take.
And if they get argumentative, he kindly but firmly, ends the call.
Wonder if the same agitators show up in multiple states/districts?
More fake news, meant to spread the lie that these are Republican voters or regular citizens - when in fact they are paid democrat protesters.
Governor Christie of New Jersey held a number of townhalls over a period of several years. They would have a very short lead time from public announcement to event, and all the Republican organizations would receive the heads up a week or two prior to that. It worked well at the ones I attended; we arrived early and took most of the available space. The lefties were not shut out, but were kept in check numerically. Some were called upon and got to ask their questions. But there were too few to really disrupt the event.
“Something has to be done about these lefty invaders of town hall meetings.”
Yeh, like so-called conservatives getting off their fat, useless butts and showing up at these townhalls to defend their conservative congressman.
