Purely from the restaurant owner's perspective, would you prefer that a controversial figure come dine with you that you will have to protect, or would you prefer that joe shmoe who pretty much gets along with others come dine in your establishment?

And actually, the restaurant did remove the protesters. They apparently weren't customers.

What would you have had the restaurant do that they didn't do?
I cannot give an answer at this time since I had never actually thought about that question. Unless you want a knee-jerk response, which I doubt.

It's certainly not going to "hunt" in Texas and Beto is no idiot, he knows that crap like that helps Cruz even if it's "feel good" for a few fringers.

If you are hinting that it was perhaps staged, I think you should take that up with Alex Jones lol.

You remind me of a whole montage I saw on youtube the other day of people celebrating early at sporting events only to lose.

If you're serious about winning you should be encouraging turnout for Beto instead of possibly hurting it by declaring victory.

Didn't you learn anything from 2016?

I like seeing politicians chased off, so long as the restaurant owner is okay with it

Its harassment, stalking, plus conspiracy to commit those offenses...is what it is.

They need to be locked up.

Yeah it will. People often vote on emotion and seeing Cruz and his wife targeted by an angry mob will put the fence sitters in his corner.

Why is left so rabid? They lost a guaranteed election and cannot get over it. Hopefully they pick up a few house seats so they calm down before they hurt someone. Idiots.

Yelp and Google took down the reviews for the fiola restaurant in DC. Alt right and the sjw cringe fringe left are giving nasty reviews about the establishment.
