ROUGH AMD TUMBLE POLITICS ALA E-3 AT CHEEZMEH MONEYMAKER
---------------------------------------------------------------
<div>By <strong>Juan Montoya</strong></div><div>Not much happened in the way of controversy at the Cheezmeh debate last night.</div><div>In the donated hall and after having the candidates forked over a few bucks fo the grassroots organization and Erasmo's labor, the candidates settled in for the perfunctory questions that dealt widely on issues, including whether they agreed with the death penalty.</div><div>Of singular interest was Alex Torres' answer that as a Republican and an elected official, he would have to abide by the laws governing the state.</div><div>This apparently didn't sit well with one of Eddie Lucio III's guaruras (thugs) and he confronted Torres as he walked off the stage and got in his face trying to prevent him from the picture session with his supporters. Some witnesses say that not only did the E-3 thug get in Torres' face, but that there was actually some physical contact. </div><div>People quickly intervened since there was an apparent breakdown in the organizing of the event where some 100 people attended and the budget did not include security guards. Torres stayed for a while before he started to walk out the door and the beefy E-3 guarura again tried to put his hands on him.</div><div>"Don't put your hands on me," Torres told the thug.</div><div>"You're running in politics," the erudite Harlingen E-3 supporter said. "You better get used to it."</div><div>As they left, none other than Rene Oliveira called out to Torres encouragingly and told him not to take it personally because in this business "you're going to run into these nuts" sometimes.</div><div>As Torres made his way out to the parking lot, he asked Ted Hasse, now a candidate for Texas Southmost College trustee (Place 6), to walk out with him to his car in case he needed a witness since the E-3 guarura was also heading out the door. As Hasse tells it, the E-3 guarura followed Torres and Hasse to the car and tried to assault the candidate. Hasse, now in the comany of local gadfly Robert Uresti ran interference for Torres and in no uncertain terms told the E-3 thug to buzz, with Uresti warning him he would call the police if he didn't.</div><div>At the mention of cops, the coward lost his courage and left Torres to go on his merry way.</div><div>What would have happened if the assault had actually been allowed to continue and no cops or security were present at the event?</div><div>If not for Hasse and Uresti, Torres might have been hurt by E-3's thug. And that's the way the Cheezmeh crumbles.</div><div> </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6016803033174468094-379778605064838843?l=rrunrrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>
