Altercation At McCaskill Townhall Meeting

Apparently these ladies were supporters of Obamacare. They came in with signs - which were not allowed - and held them up even after people told them they couldn't have signs. From what I hear ( I had stepped outside when it happened) someone tryed to grab the poster and was then attacked by the lady holding it. This video is after the cops had taken them outside and taken one lady off to question.

yeah... well at the time i posted this i had not yet had a chance to see the other videos and from what i had heard at the time my description of the video was fairly accurate.... the description was not meant to accuse anyone of anything, just tryin to give ppl an idea of what was going on in the video based on what i knew at the time...

peace

hey relpoh dont' u think it's time to change and correct your description of this video since the truth have been revealed now?

i think you should it's only fair to report the truth and that alone. I don't think the description you gave is a near the truth. You should correct it so that people can know the real account of what happened. it's just a reccomendation but you should take it. Peace & Love

Why are people this upset over Health Care? You know there are underlying issues.

[preferredduck]

what everyone has missed on this whole ordeal is the man was also escorted off and he was arrested. they were taken off because a fight and alot of profanity was breaking out. the folks in the back PEACEFULLY" HOLDING THEIR SIGN DID NOTHING WRONG. the man did wrong and the woman did not until she got up and prob yelled F naw mothe Fer, watch the other video and you will see her lips move and its clear she is not being nice at all, thats where she went wrong.

and they suck at it and subsidize it out to BCBS or united health care. i do hospital billing and collections so you may wanna not arguee on this one i think i know since it's what i do.

Hey relpoh, you obviously didn't look at the original video. That man clearly went up to this lady after he saw the reporter ask to see her poster ( which btw, she had rolled up and laid down on the chair in front of her) and he snatched it out of her hand and tore it up. That's assault and robbery according to the law. The least you could do is get your facts straight before you try to tell what's happening.

another lie, the woman's poster was rolled up, she was sitting, a photographer approchaed to see the sign, she unrolled it on a seat, a man snuck up behind, stole the poster from the ladie's hand, then ripped it up before the police grabbed both of them.

[TheZ1mike]

yep

A man tore up the woman's Rosa Parks sign, and the audience applauded. Granted the women broke the rules in bringing signs, but how the women were treated by the man, the crowd, McCaskill, and the police is disgraceful.
