The day that he was knighted as the presumptive Dim Candidate, Kerry was in Chicago.
My wife had the misfortune to pull in behind his motorcade as it went on to Lake Shore Drive.
She followed them at some distance, and described Chicago police speeding ahead of the motorcade and cutting off drivers in order to block the entrance as exit ramps as the motorcade proceeded.
She also saw heavily armed men in full body armor hanging onto and from the escort vehicles.
It's the world we live in. Someone wants a piece of the king, and there are people whose job it is to prevent that from happening.
So...
I suggest you lay your gripes out for all to hear, as you yourself run for office, in a bid to end this shameless royal display.
Then, you can fade into blessed obscurity, confident that no one really cares about your beef with 'the king'.
I see you're still clinging to the absurd notion that the removal of protesters had anything to do with safety or security.
So maybe you can answer the question that no one here will address:
There are two people in the crowd watching the motorcade drive by. One is wearing a Bush t-shirt and appluading. The other is wearing one that says "NO WAR FOR OIL" t-shirt and saying "no more years". Neither individual has given any indication of malicious intent. They're simply standing there watching and speaking their mind.
As it stands, and not only in the case in the article, the dissenter will be threatened with arrest if he doesn't move to a "free speech zone", the supporter is left be.
Exactly what safety or security threat does the does the dissenter pose that the supporter does not? Please be specific.
