Liberal Protesters Disrupt Opening Prayer, Pledge of Allegiance at GOP Town Hall

‘Pray on your own time; This is our time’

Liberal Protesters Disrupt Opening Prayer, Pledge of Allegiance at Republican Town Hall (The Washington Free Beacon)

Liberal protesters yelled throughout the opening prayer and Pledge of Allegiance on Wednesday during Sen. Bill Cassidy's (R., La.) town hall meeting in Metairie, La.

Cassidy scheduled the town hall to discuss various issues including immigration, health care, and the economy. However, many people in the crowd would not listen to Cassidy, and instead heckled him and yelled out slogans commonly heard at anti-Republican rallies.

Before Cassidy addressed the crowd and took questions, Louisiana State chaplain Dr. Michael Sprague announced that he would begin the prayer. As soon as he said “prayer” the crowd erupted.
