re: There is no doubt town hall agitators are paid stooges

I am legitimately asking: Is being a constituent of the senator or representative a requirement in order to attend? Would someone who is not a constituent be turned away at the door if it were found out they were from another state?

they attend with disruption as their primary goal
In your opinion, if someone disagrees with the repeal of the ACA, what should their primary goal be when attending?

It should be. Town halls are a way for people that the representatives represent to voice their comments or concerns, so that the representative can better understand the desires of those they represent. But unless they are "carding" people, there is no way for anyone to know 100% that those people are the ones at the town hall. It is not unreasonable to think that people are coming from outside those districts or states to cause havoc for those town halls.

Their primary goal is to voice their concerns...to the specific representatives who actually represent their district (for reps) or state (for senators).

When a loved one is on his or her deathbed, we can disagree with the inevitable, we can deny the inevitable, but the inevitable will still occur. Obamacare is on its deathbed. It is in its deathspiral. Its death is inevitable. We have to forward another plan.
After that is made crystal clear for someone who disagrees with the repeal of the ACA, that someone should enquire as to what comes next and provide input as to what is needed.
