How heated have the nation's town-hall meetings become? Here's some video -- taken Tuesday in Missouri at Sen. Claire McCaskill's now infamous Q & A -- of an altercation between two attendees. At issue is the presence of a poster commemorating the life and times of civil rights icon Rosa Parks. Apparently, the sight of Parks' image was too much for one man to bear. Watch:
With passions running high in the debate about how to reform our health care system, the poster incident will hopefully serve as a corrective as to when all that anger is just, simply, too much.
