I've just seen two at a Palin event in AZ.

3. MSNBC keeps showing one clip
...of an African-American woman being dragged out, they use her in footage when they are showing clips of teabaggers. But IIRC, that woman was at a town hall meeting in support of HCR and a man grabbed her sign out of her hand and tore it up. When the woman yelled at him they removed her instead of him. :(

4. That's the one I recall. She had her poster snatched by a freeper. She went after it...
... and was escorted out. She didn't go quietly.

5. Ah! That was at Claire McCaskill's town hall meeting in August, I think
I saw that. And it was a supporter of HCR. The altercation started because the woman entered the hall with a sign. People were forbidden to bring signs into the meeting. The teabaggers went all nutty about it when she entered, well after the meeting started, with her sign.
