At a town hall last night in Cleveland, two men who yelled out to Rep. Marcia Fudge (D-OH) during her opening remarks were removed by police.

“This is still my meeting,” Fudge said after they were taken away. Fudge had warned attendees that anyone attempting to disrupt the event, or speak before the Q&A session, would be removed.

Democrats packed the town hall to show support for health care reform, but some opponents still made their voices heard. But besides the two ejections, the meeting was peaceful.
