Three people were arrested, two of them shocked with a Taser and about six people were escorted out of the building as Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene held a town hall in Acworth Tuesday.
“We aren’t going to be intimidated by funded Democrats that want to come in and scream and yell,” Greene said after the meeting at the Acworth Community Center in Cobb County. “A town hall is information for our constituents, and this is not a political rally, this is not a campaign rally, and town halls are extremely important. I’m glad they got thrown out, that’s exactly what I wanted to see happen.”
The first arrest came just after the town hall began when one man loudly booed Greene and was dragged into the hallway by police and shocked with a Taser at least twice. Shortly after he was taken away, police could be seen scuffling with another man in the crowd, eventually using the Taser on him as well.
A woman was arrested near the end of the event after she shouted profanities at Greene while she was on the stage.
According to police, the first man was charged with misdemeanor simple battery on a police officer and misdemeanor obstruction. The second man was charged with misdemeanor simple battery on a police officer and felony obstruction, and the woman was charged with violating a city ordinance on vulgar language, a misdemeanor.

People used to know how to behave in public. In my opinion many people are now out of control and need a serious wakeup to mind their manners.
I have no issue with free speech but people acting nuts need to be swiftly dealt with. Manners training way past time.
I believe it has had an impact on their protests. This is coming out of Soro’s pocket, hopefully.
The going rate is:
$50 - Protesting outside of a building where an event takes place
$100 - Protesting inside of the building
$250 - Getting a verifiable injury by a pig*
$1000 - Getting hospitalized by a pig*
$10000 - Getting permanently injured by a pig*
*their term, not mine
Interesting that you never see behavior like this from the right at leftist townhalls.
With them it comes from the inside out - as the worms eat into their brains.
