Here is a link to the video that doesn't have anti-Mayberry Youtube comments. Simply pause one side of the video to watch.
I have to say, what a great use of the human mic.

When one person was led away another stepped in to lead, it was just great. Gotta love clever civil disobedience.

Typical spoiled brat behavior. Not a lick of common courtesy in these people.

Well, they paid money to be there so Walker shouldn't be too upset.

So what if they paid to be there. If I pay to go to a movie, does that give me the right to disrupt the show and not let the others who paid enjoy the movie? They should've waited till he was taking questions and spoke their opinion. One at a time not like 2nd graders.

Sixty protesters crashed Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s speech at the Union League Club Thursday to offer an alternate picture of how well his controversial budget cuts and union restrictions are working in the Dairy State. “Nearly every week I’ve got a new opening up in Kenosha County, in Pleasant Prairie Industrial Park and places like that,” Walker told the business owners and civic leaders. “Any of you looking to grow and expand your business and get to a safer state, come on up.” But while Walker said his strict tonic of cuts has helped catapult Wisconsin from No. 41 to No. 24 on national rankings of business-friendly states, the Stand Up, Chicago! protesters said Walker’s policies are harming Wisconsin residents. Walker “has wreaked havoc on the lives of working families,” the protesters shouted in unison about five minutes into Walker’s speech. “It’s ironic that we give Gov. Walker free rein to say what he wants while the mayor has ordered the arrest of over 300 people in Occupy Chicago, who have simply tried to express the rights of freedom and assembly.” The protesters took up about six tables and shouted loud, in unison, frustrating efforts of moderator Chris Robling to quiet them, though he did get attendees to applaud loud enough to drown them out for a minute. They finally filed out chanting, “Union busting — it’s disgusting” and “We are the 99 percent.” Robling said, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is what free expression is all about and sometimes it’s pretty messy.” Fanning through questions submitted by members of the audience, Robling quipped, “Alright, I’m going to take out a few of the questions from those tables.” The protesters had to pay $20 for each of their reservations, so the club made $1,200 off them. The remaining guests gave Walker a standing ovation and he resumed his speech. more at link.

Ok, no bad words(unsure about the comments, though), but it really wasn't nice, though funny in a way, too.
