Re:Free Speech Was A Terrorist Victim (Score 1)

Really? Who was arrested for wearing a "No Bush" T-shirt? I can't seem to find any information about it. There appear to be a few people here wearing anti-Bush T-shirts who aren't getting arrested. Maybe they're just lucky.

I didn't find a story about anyone being arrested for wearing anti-Bush t-shirts (although I did read it somewhere. I'll have to find it.) However, there are plenty of stories of people being arrested for the horrible crime of having an anti-Bush opinion and wanting to express it via signs, in a venue where the President might see or hear it.

The ACLU has been kind enough to chronicle some examples.

In addition for those who are not apt to believe anything you hear from the ACLU perhaps an article from the December 15 American Conservative Magazine might convince you.

Unfortunately, he violations of free speech are real. This is not a bunch of people in the midst of a "tin-hat" moment. And if you think it will get any better with another four years of this fool Bush you're having a "head in the sand" moment.
