Pro-Palestine heckler ’pummelled’ by angry Texans at Greg Abbott event

A pro-Palestine heckler was forcefully removed by a room full of Texans on Saturday after attempting to disrupt a speech by Governor Greg Abbott. Video posted to social media shows the interrupter being drowned out by boos and subsequently manhandled by the crowd. The young demonstrator yelled “don’t f***ing touch me!“ as attendees, some in cowboy hats, swiftly removed him from the event. The disruption reportedly occurred during a reelection campaign event for Governor Abbott in Collin County. On the same day, a large pro-Palestine protest took place in Washington D.C., where no arrests were reported, according to the New York Post.
