      Scuffle between Alex Jones and a couple of guys in the public square. I got shoved down in the scrum. Bike cops pushed everyone back quick

      Jones got whisked out of the crowd and into a waiting SVU. Sped off.

          Easily the most tense thing I've seen so far this week. The cops -- Chief Williams was on the steps too -- broke it up really quickly.

          Public square is pretty crowded, and reporters & onlookers flock to the more controversial folks there. So it was tight around Jones already

          He struggled through the crowd with his mic, and that's where he met the guys on the steps. (and yours truly, trying to get out of the way)

          Just for clarification: the above preachers/counter protesters situation wasn't connected to the Alex Jones scrum. Other end of the park.
