With a banner supporting public health care.

Notable moments:

0:23 - He gets spat on.

1:16 - Some old man walking into him which just looks funny.

1:31 - Some hot headed guy tries to steal banner. Gets ass woopin' by police.

1:55 - All the police have to surround the man to protect him from the mob

Generally it's hilarious that people can get so worked up over something so trivial.

Why are the anti's termed teabaggers? I thought that was some sort of gay sex thing?

His banner says 'Public Option Now'. Presumably a reference to the option for having a state-backed insurer as well as private insurers?

Yep. Funny thing is, one of the protesters shout something along the lines of "Sure, you can have it by don't force it on us! :@" Which is his exact opinion haha.

Still, a better way to make your point would be to do the exact same thing but without the police.
Get the st beaten out of you and make sure you get it recorded. Submit to all major news stations and you see an old man getting beaten up for his opinions by a group of "TRUE AMERIKANZ NOT COMMIES!"

Pretty fool proof way to discredit them.

Next time he wants to publicise his cause, he might want to bring along a friend who can hold the camera the right way up. I gave up after 45 seconds with a cricked neck.
