Sit at next table and loudly but calmly keep mocking his statements.

Ruin his meal with a running commentary of his own stupidity on a loop

or why the families of the victims of this massacre can stand to be in the same room with this pos or the other pos Republicans Abbott and Patrick? I wish at least one of the parents who gets close enough to Abbott slaps him in the face and screams at what a useless pos he is! It would be interesting to see if they would prosecute them, especially if it was one of the mothers.

Cruz cares about anything but his own position in being able to go to Cancun while hundreds of thousands of people were freezing, some to death. The man is one of d. trumps demons. They are malignant cancers.

They simply do not care and no amount of heckling will ever change that. Hopefully, it will change the minds of enough voters to take away their cushy positions.

31. That man rights were violated and he was assaulted by Cruz armed security

Only thing that man did, is spoke the truth. Truth hurts!

He stood his ground and he was forcibly removed from a public place by Cruz security. He was not violent, he was there as a citizen speaking to his elected senator. Cruz could of left, the citizen should not of been forcibly removed by security... that of itself was assault! The business did not ask him to leave, just texas senator Cruz security. NO special powers!
