From the source of your pictute:
Excerpt:

""You said you committed atrocities!" shouted Michael L. Russell of Foster, Ky., at the beginning of Kerry's speech.

That was about all he got to say before a union sheet metal worker sitting next to him got him in a headlock. Russell, a Teamster member who got an invitation through his union, tried to continue his speech, but 600 Kerry supporters shouted, "Ker-ry! Ker-ry! Ker-ry!" to drown him out.

Cincinnati police and U.S. Secret Service officers escorted Russell from the building. He was not arrested.

"He was a plant, obviously," said David Mann, the former Cincinnati mayor and congressman, who was sitting immediately behind Russell. "He would have kept on talking."

The outburst led Kerry to depart briefly from his prepared remarks.

"I have nothing but the greatest respect for people's right to express their opinion," Kerry said. "I might add, it's a terrific tactic of the Bush team. They love to disrupt. They love to interrupt. They don't want America to hear the truth."

Funny response to man trying to shout the truth.

"He was a plant, obviously,"

Doesn't this mean that this event was staged??? Why is the guy a "plant"" Isn't it possible that the guy was there to see what Kerry had to say? HE didn't like it and yell out.

If he was a plant that means everyone else that was there had a specidic invitation to be there.
