What does 'them' indicate here?
But democracy is usually a tumultuous and unseemly affair, especially when men feel strongly about vital issues. Probably since the first popular assembly convened there have been presiding officers who turned a deaf ear to delegates they did not like. Rival factions have always tried to pack the galleries and to shout down their opponents. To take note of these historical facts is not to condone them.
