Angry protesters screamed, yelled and banged on windows as officers hurried to guard the entrances to the facility, where U.S. Rep. Kathy Castor was trying to discuss the various health care reform proposals being debated in Congress. One photojournalist said (http://www.wtsp.com/news/local/story.aspx?storyid=111086&catid=8 - broken link) that a fistfight broke out inside the building, reports WTSP.
Many of the hundreds of protesters said that they had been inspired by Fox News host Glenn Beck and a conservative activist group, according to the St. Petersburg Times:

Interesting as the "Kill Him!" story that spalshed acoss every major news outlet also was reported by a single journalist in crowd of 4,500 including numerous security, law enforcement and Secret Service agents. At this point in time anything I read from media with their obvious left wing bent I take with a grain of salt. They cannot be trusted.
Agent Bill Slavoski said he was in the audience, along with an undisclosed number of additional secret service agents and other law enforcement officers and not one heard the comment.
“I was baffled,” he said after reading the report in Wednesday’s Times-Tribune.
He said the agency conducted an investigation Wednesday, after seeing the story, and could not find one person to corroborate the allegation other than Singleton.

""""The spectacle at the Children's Board in Ybor City sounded more like a wrestling cage match than a panel discussion on national policy, and it was just the latest example of a health care meeting disrupted by livid protesters.
The Tampa Tribune reports that some protesters carried racist caricatures of President Obama ""
The Repubs just can't get enough of embarrassing themselves!!
Boy! These GOONS are sure making the Republican Party look bad !!!
They are SO AGAINST FREE SPEECH!!!
They are SO scared that they can't stand and DISCUSS things like rational adults....What COWARDS!!
Ya, their actions really make sane people want to be on their side...LOLOLOL!!!!
People were waiting in line for hours to get in to this town hall. The democrats opened the back doors to sneak in their supporters, not allowing the majority of those who were waiting in line to get in.
Now, tell me how fair this is?
Of course, when you then have angry people yelling and shouting, that's when the liberals take notice.

Disgusting behavior.
How effing fair is it to take over a DISUSSION and NOT LET ANYONE SPEAK OR RESPOND OR DISCUSS ANYTHING LIKE ADULTS!
Maybe if the drooling repubs could act like intelligent adults they'd be welcomed.....why should decent people have to put up with screaming mobs?????
We agree! The repub mobs are showing TYPICAL disgusting behaviour!!!

Too effing bad for the PUBLIC SERVANTS. They reaped what they sowed with single digit approval ratings.
