Screaming Union Mob Chases and Traps WI Republican in Capitol
A Wisconsin representative lawmaker was chased around the capitol building and surrounded by an angry crowd of protesters. If the republicans think that the people are going to back down, they better think twice.

I didn't see any chasing and it looks like he was locked out of the building instead of being trapped. FoxNews.
I sitting here in my home and . It would not have been good for me to be there and probably not at any demonstrations at this point and time.

First, the protesters were supposed to be allowed access to the capital building per a court order. It doesn't look like this has happened yet.

Second, many of the doors into the capital building have been blocked for weeks now. This person should have known which ones were closed and gone to a door that was open. How did a Fox News camera just happen to be there when he was getting lost walking around the capital?
"The video at left shows protesters chanting "Shame! Shame!" as they followed him. They followed Grothman until he was stuck at a locked entrance, at which point some started chanting "Peace!" to calm the crowd down."
I didn't see Grothman's comments on Fox, but did find them in the article I posted.
"I really think if I had had to, I could have walked through the crowd and it would have been okay," he said. "They're loud, they'll give you the finger, and they yell at you, but I really think deep down inside they're just mostly college kids having fun, just like they're having fun sleeping with their girfriends on air mattresses. That's the guts of that crowd."

One of the things that caught my attention in this video is that most of the time the camera was looking up, not at the action. If it truly had gotten violent, you know the camera would have been pointing toward the center of activity. I guess it's more dramatic if no one can see what is happening.
