Protester Tased at Marjorie Taylor Greene Event in Georgia
16th April 2025
Protesters disrupted a town hall meeting held by one of President Trump’s closest allies in Congress, prompting police to physically remove them and taser one.
Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican congresswoman from Georgia, attracted a crowd of more than 150 supporters to a community centre in suburban Atlanta while demonstrators rallied outside. A small group of protesters managed to enter the event, and at least three people were arrested including two who were tasered after they scuffled with police.
Greene, one of Trump’s most loyal and vocal allies, repeatedly said “bye” to people being escorted from the room and praised officers for their response.
“This is a town hall; this is not a political rally; this is not a protest,” Greene said.
Police said they had arrested a 40-year-old Atlanta man, a 45-year-old man from Dallas, Georgia, and a 28-year-old woman on charges including obstructing police and violating a city ordinance forbidding vulgar language in a public place.
