Rep. Dan Crenshaw and his staff were violently confronted at the Republican Party of Texas convention a short time ago, when far-right social media activist Alex Stein and others whom witnesses described as Proud Boys began shouting “eyepatch McCain” at him – an attempted insult coined by Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson.
A witness to the incident tells Mediaite that in addition to Stein and others being escorted out of the building, some arrests were made at the scene.

Is being shouted at considered a “violent confrontation”?

Could Crenshaw share some of his stock tips?

Unhappy Democrats “hoot” (shout) at Biden.
Unhappy Republicans “violently confront” (shout at) Crenshaw.

I’d like to hear about this protest from an organization, or eyewitness, other than Mediaite.

Video at article. Crenshaw never even had to break his slow stride. Someone tried to get up in his face but was blocked by staff.

I learned about “eye patch” McCain on Free Republic.
Eye patch is a deep state operative through & through.
We’ll never get MAGA with Crenshaw types holding political office.

Almost worth 2 more years of Nancy if it also means getting that traitor out of Congress.
By the way, I never did understand how he managed to borrow a C-5 Cargo Plane to film his commercials several years ago. I always that using government property for political campaigns was a no-no. Perhaps they made an exception?

"Is being shouted at considered a “violent confrontation”?"
The video at the website was brief and didn't really show any actual violence - it was way too shaky. It sounds like there might have been a little pushing and shoving, but nothing compared to what Antifa did to Andy Ngo, for example. On a scale of 1 to 10, the "violence" seemed to be at level 1, if that.
And notice how the article tried to implicate Tucker Carlson in this? The left is really coming hard after Fox News.
To: Pollard
"Crenshaw never even had to break his slow stride. Someone tried to get up in his face but was blocked by staff."
Yep. For being the victim of "violence," Crenshaw looked completely untouched.
To: Steve_Seattle
Mediate blowing it out of proportion like Crenshaw is a democrat or something. ‘magine that

"I like to know how he won the primary this year." He played on his military record and injury to overshadow/conceal his connections to the "great reset" conspiracy.
I'm not in his district, but his commercials played in San Antonio. The only reason I wasn't taken in is what I found out here at FR.

He didn’t care much when SNL made fun of him. In fact at a later date he then participated in an episode.
