Man throws a drink can at Ted Cruz during an Astro's World Series victory parade.

A cursory Google search yields no background on one Joseph Halm Arcidiacono, but by his appearance I'm guessing he doesn't vote the conservative ticket.

Also, news is calling it a "beer" can. Yeah, right. White Claw is to beer what Smart Fortwo is to automobiles.

This could have come across in a number of ways, but that fact that he was throwing cans of White Claw makes him look like just another leftist idiot.  =)

If it was Budweiser or something like that, it might have looked different.

Was it a full can? I would not want to get klonked on the head with a can filled with 12 ounces of anything.

Everyone knows you're suppose to shoot cans of White Claw not throw them at people.

Not so sure Brandon is all that. That .50 cal AK should be pretty neat, though.

Looks like your typical extreme right winger to me

I assume that is why it is a felony charge.  I wouldn't want to get hit either, but the optics of it being White Claw is just funny.

And apparently he threw it like a Mary.

But yes, I still wouldn't want even a lucky noodle armed throw to hit me in the noggin.

My dad had a guy throw beer cans at him, while driving through DFW. What is it with Texans and throwing beer cans at people?

I know lots of people who might chuck a beer can at you, but you can be damned certain there won't be anything left in it if they do.

Rings on his fingers, bells on his toes and a ring in his nose...ho ho.
