About a dozen well restrained Forsyth County deputies kept a close watch inside and out. While many of Loeffler’s supporters grew angry and responded with shouts of “All Lives Matter” and “Kelly, Kelly”the, demonstration never turned violent. Loeffler and Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas remained to take photos with supporters, but left at approximately 4 p.m. on the next stop on the bus tour in Hall County.
