Independent candidate Will Thilly performed kung fu kicks through protest signs at a a New Jersey meeting while criticizing Mayor Terrence Curran.
It was less town hall talk and more kung fu theater.
A local election candidate is making waves for a bizarre protest he made at a township meeting this week when he dressed up in martial arts gear and unleashed a series of flying kicks and punched through several of his own protest signs.
The man, identified in previous theatrical stunts as Will Thilly, is running as an independent for the Cranford Township Committee in New Jersey, and has been railing against the local mayor on local taxes, development policy and civic unity.
At around 45 minutes into the streamed meeting, Thilly approaches the podium in his blue-colored gear, yellow belt and black headband, and begins clapping.
He then breaks out singing „Eye of the Tiger“ and asks the bemused crowd to join in.
That’s when two helpers on either side of the floor unfurl a sign reading „Unfair Taxes“, and Thilly proceeds to kung fu kick through it.
