Has there been any characterization of the Kavanaugh hearing protesters?

Yes, of course a lot of them are women protesting his Roe v Wade stance and similar, but there are frequently men there too. Are all of them anti-Kavanaugh?

Has anyone seen them characterized based on protesting issue?

Try as I might, I never can understand what is being said--at least on streaming video.

Linda Sarsour was hauled out early on. There were also Handmaids, but I think they were silent.

I heard one woman was protesting about health care, saying she would die and Orrin Hatch made a snide remark. He called her a “loudmouth."

There are so many things to protest about!
