Nowhere near on the scale of the DNC walk out. Similar happened at 2012 RNC over Ron Paul delegates.

I think some 1968 delegates were arrested and/or physically removed from the convention

But did they self-organize a massive walkout?

in 1948 DNC I think they pushed the guy who was going to be nominating Wallace outside, didnt let him on mic & changed all history.
