Video: Occupy Chicago Protesters Drown Out Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker

We'd heard about some Occupy Chicago protesters crashing a speech by Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker at the Union League Club last week, and we thought it was neat to think of folks interrupting the man who, in their words, "vilified unions" in Wisconsin. But now that we have video evidence of them shutting down the event, we are downright impressed at how well organized the group Stand Up! Chicago was in taking complete control over the event, then chanting "We are the 99 percent."
