Does she have a defense fund yet? I'd contribute. We're not allowed to protest out front of no. 10 downing st. anymore (equivalent to your White House). Sadness, it is.

What's so "sad" about it?
Perhaps you think Government officials should not be allowed to have ANY public function that is not open to hecklers, rioters and every other form of protest imaginable?

There are proper forums for such things. This simply was not one of them.
Get over it.

There was nothing unconstitutional about removing her from the premises. Charging her with "willfully intimidating, coercing, threatening and harassing a foreign official," on the other hand, is a revolt against the Constitution as well as common sense.

Tyrants ever should be confronted when they set foot in the land of free men. The bigger the tyrant the greater the honor in the confrontation. It is just unfortunate that this oriental despot wasn't greeted by thousands of angry Americans and had his limo bombarded with every imaginable item of filth every time he appears in the streets of any of our cities. Then instead of returning to his fellow tyrants and telling them of how weak and cowardly the round eye are he could tell them that we still hold true to the spirit of our ancestors and that it was best not to try the patience of these people. Let tyrants always tremble at the name of our country and not welcome them to our shores.

you know, I'm going to have to go ahead and agree with you. This isn't about freedom of speech. No one is saying she can't have freedom of speech. This is about an inappropriate behavior in a forum where losing face could have consequences beyond our shores. No one had a problem when capital police removed Cindy Sheehan as she tried to protest Bush, btw...

Murdering, commie despots should get no rest from hecklers, actually they deserve to be thrown into the middle of those they have oppressed & tortured and face what justice they deserve.
