I saw a few comments on Facebook about the incident.  It seems that the SEIU
members got into a shouting match with some of the right-wing
anti-health-care-reform wingnuts, and it turned into a bit of a shoving
match.  The consensus seemed to be that the right-wingers started the
shoving.  St. Louis, I think.  A black minister, who had run for some
political office as a Green, was injured and had to be hospitalized.
