A pro-Palestinian heckler attempted to interrupt Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's speech Saturday in Collin County, Texas, and was rudely woken up, according to online reports.
Video shows disgruntled young people interrupting Governor Abbott's speech, but are quickly drowned out by boos from the crowd. The crowd then begins to manhandle him, and voices can be heard shouting, “Don't touch me!” The crowd continued to punch and pull him, quickly ejecting him from the event. Several attendees wearing cowboy hats can be seen leading him out of the building.

On the other hand, the New York Post report No arrests were made in Washington, D.C., but clearly the good people of Texas weren't willing to put up with the chaos. You know what they say, but sometimes when you mess with Texas, Texas comes back.
