Wild Wild West – Texas GOP Candidate for Governor Involved in Physical Altercation at DFW Airport

 

DALLAS, TX – Former head of the Texas Republican Party and gubernatorial candidate, Allen West, released a statement Thursday morning regarding an incident with a "left-wing partisan" at DFW Airport in Dallas. 

West claims in a press release that while at the DFW Airport, on Nov. 4, a person approached him and "cursed and insulted him for not wearing a mask." During the conflict, West responded by "flicking" the  person's mask off of their face.

The DFW Airport Police were dispatched to the airport terminal where "West has gladly spoken to the officers."

"West will not cave to bullying by progressive political punks. We look forward to a resolution on this matter, and as Governor, West will not tolerate abusive agitators," stated the press release. "Rule of law and common decency will be defended."

This is the second time the West family has been involved with law enforcement. In late Aug., West's Wife was wrongfully arrested after allegations of drunk driving. For more see: She Was Stone-Cold Sober: DWI Charges Against Allen West’s Wife Dropped

It is unknown if any charges will be pressed on West or the unknown radical assailant.
