Two women took posters with them Thursday to Senator Claire McCaskill's health care town hall before being half-escorted, half-dragged from the building. The women were booed when showing the posters.

A man approached one of the women when she was showing the Rosa Parks poster to a journalist and tore it up. When the woman moved to take her poster back, the police stepped in and escorted both parties from the building. (The Huffington Post)
