That isn't reasonable by anyones standards. What or who gives any American the idea that their government wants them to die? He was there to rage, plain and simple.

And I'm still not seeing any details about the intruder.
What was said at that meeting: Man in video was upset at town hall meeting and told the democrat speaker that the government health plan would not give his cerebral palsy son any health care. The government speaker man then replied twice that "the article (health bill clause) he was talking about was being changed". This is what freaked me out, that there was an article that would even hint of no care for his son. Then the man who had disabled son said "what is the article number (that was changed), and then the government man said he did not know.

Did you see the man's son in the wheel chair and his wife beside the son? I see nobody talking about the live evidence he had that his son suffers from cerebral palsy. Why doesn't anyone talk about that young man?

The libs here didn't hear any of those things because they hear only what they want to hear and see. Facts really foul them up and you held some facts up for them.

He got precise answer to his specific question, then started yelling like a moron. He would have even been thrown out of a bar for acting like that, much less a town hall meeting.

Anyone can file a police report. False police reports are filed all the time. I can say someone came to my house and threw a brick at my home and threatened me, however, if no one is found, and no evidence is found other than my word, then all you have is my word.

What would you have us say? He has CP. He is in a wheelchair. That's pretty much all I know.

I can not comprehend that any government sponsored health plan would deny coverage or medical treatment for people with disabilities or deny care to the elderly. NOBODY would allow that. NOBODY would support that. EVERYONE would riot and probably overthrow the government.
That some people can easily beleive this is what "Obama/libs/Dems want" says something, but I'm not sure what.
I would say it's a joke, they they are just trying to make Obama look bad so some Republican can seize the power back but after hearing people speak and seeing that they DO believe I can only shake my head and wonder what is really going on.

Yes, the people are angry. Angry with the ongoing lies, rhetoric and misinformation coming out of this thugocracy administration. I agree, the meeting could have been more effective if everyone maintained a civil tone of voice. Then everyone could have heard the lies, rhetoric and misinformation more clearly.
