Actually, the uncommitted delegates outside were being pretty reasonable with their demands. They just wanted a speaking slot for a pro-Palestine congresswoman who had already endorsed Harris. It's pretty sad that even that couldn't be accommodated. There's also some videos floating around of Dem delegates mocking the protestors when they were chanting the names of the children killed in Gaza.

There's also #### like this, which we've seen a lot of in this thread:
