Australian Prime Minister Wants Anti-Muslim Senator Charged for Slapping Teen After Being Egged
EGGED ON
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Sunday that Senator Fraser Anning should be charged after he slapped 17-year-old Will Connolly for cracking a raw egg on his head, according to USA Today. Anning had blamed Muslim immigrants for the deadly attack on two New Zealand mosques last week. Connolly, who has adopted the name ‘egg boy’ has become somewhat of an international superstar after video of the egg incident went viral. Morrison said on Sunday that Anning should be punished for striking the teen. “The full force of the law should be applied to Sen. Anning,” he told reporters. Connolly is being investigated for assaulting the senator. A GoFundMe page intended to raise $1,400 for the teen’s “legal fees” and “more eggs” had raised more than $17,000 on Sunday.
