Report that a bill has been passed to prohibit any protest of the President
Fox News | 3/13/2012

Posted on 03/13/2012 4:51:50 AM PDT by Ab Alius Domitor

I admit I am on drugs for a messed up back but I was watching Fox and Friends News this morning and heard that congress had passed a bill making it a felony to protest the President or any one with Secret Service protection. Was I dreaming this or did anyone else hear this? I went to their web site after I heard it but I can't find anything. Please help me Freeper's before I lose my mind and move to some 3rd world country!!!

Apparently the extremists on both the far left and the far right are the ones who are making a big deal out of this. Did you even think for a second that when all but 3 members of the House voted for this bill then it means that it has nothing controversial about it?

Vice President's official residence or its grounds

They don't want any more "Get out of Dick Cheney's house!"

To protect the person actually making the decisions.

Not just the figurehead phony.

I am glad he is back and if I had some small part in getting him here again I am glad. We need all Patriots and free thinkers to be here to challenge us to be better. As far as the legend........ I thought I was but realized later that I was a village idiot!!! It is kind of fun though!!!

People, let’s be civil! All I wanted to do was verify that what I thought I heard was correct. It is bazaar that there has been no mention of the report since (like the missile off of the coast of CA) since. The fact that they did say it has been verified by previous posts. I love you all and have since Dan Rather got busted! Let’s aspire to be the best of the best. We can disagree but we should never call each other names. We are better than that. Ken

No need to move to a third world country; stay put and you’ll be there soon enough!

I would say that the odds of an election actually being held this November have fallen considerably.

I agree with that, the most ridiculed people of the world but during WWII they fought in every major conflict. What a brave people. I’d stand with them!!!

WHAT was the House thinking when they passed this????

Easy....Tea Party and Town Hall Meetings. Right now it is for the benefit of anyone needing SS protection. It will reach those in the House and Senate.

ANYONE voting for this needs to be ousted on this issue alone.

I think HR 347 is to intimidate all protestors who oppose Obama because you will not be aware of where Secret Service protected persons are.
