Tampa, Florida - Angry protesters and strong supporters are clashing inside and all around a health care reform town hall meeting in Downtown Tampa. The meeting which was scheduled to begin at 6:00 at the Children’s Board of Hillsborough County drew hundreds of people who quickly began to overwhelm staff and event organizers at the front entrance.
As the building filled to capacity, angry protesters stuck outside began to scream, yell, and chant. At one point, those trying to get inside began banging on windows as Tampa Police officers quickly spread out guarding all entrances.
10 Connects photojournalist Kevin Carlson, currently inside the meeting reports at least one fist fight breaking out inside. Some other journalists remain outside.
Democratic Congresswoman Kathy Castor and State Representative Betty Reed were hosting the event.

What do they accomplish by barring the opposition? If they are surrounding themselves with sycophantic union crowds they are only convincing themselves that they will be safe in supporting the HC takeover. They will still be removed from office during the next election as that is the only meaningful way to voice your opposition. They are ignoring genuine opposition and are hell bent on ramming this down our throats regardless of how vocal we are.

The real focus needs to be decertifying these unions from public sector jobs. Many municipalities and counties are hard up for money for vital services yet are forced to fund lavish pension and benefit packages for their SEIU and AFSCME workforce.

Keep in mind what happened to Donald Young, the missionaries in Kenya that mentioned Obama’s birth there and the man that was cooperating with authorities regarding the passport break in. All shot. No suspects.
Emanuel, Axelrod and Obama are nothing but Chicago thugs and they play to win. A wounded Marxist is a dangerous Marxist. They gave billions to ACORN, and others, or should I say, WE gave it to them via our tax dollars. It’s going to get really nasty as time goes on and crowds get larger.

Every person locked out probably has family members that vote and friends that vote...the dems are not being too smart about this...a pissed off voter can bring in several more pissed off voters on election day....even those that usually stay home........
