Several audience members were escorted out of a town hall Tuesday night in Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's Georgia district, with police stunning two attendees. Acworth police said in a statement that officers were “threatened, physically resisted, and harmed in the process” of trying to remove Johnny Keith Williams, 45, of Dallas; Andrew Russell Nelms, 40, of Atlanta; and Kiyana Davis, 28, of Dallas, who were all arrested in connection with disrupting the event.

Williams and Nelms were arrested on suspicion of simple battery on a law enforcement officer and obstruction of a law enforcement officer. Davis was arrested and accused of using vulgar language.

Greene responded to a series of questions from constituents that were displayed at the event, including questions that directly criticized billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency and President Donald Trump’s tariffs. Concerns were also raised about potential cuts to Social Security and Medicaid.

In response to a question about what she would do to “rein in” Trump, Greene said the person posing the question had been “completely brainwashed.”

From what is should in the video at the link, it looks like the police overreacted, since the men were on their way out. The police overrreaction may have a little to do with the fact these were white cops and black demonstrators. And since when is "using profanity" grounds for arrest?

Of course, Marjorie Taylor Greene's fan base who showed up at the town hall in their red hats were applauding the police tazing these men.
