Omigosh! Police in Ohio are following standard police procedure!

So?

Were there reporters or protestors in the bus? I'm confused. :/

And this report comes on the heels of the National Convention which featured hecklers of every stripe actually on the floor of the hall.

Accusations of keeping (gasp) non-republicans away from the President ring hollow!

But if they did it, KUDOS!

I heard some NPR reporter tell this story a couple days ago. He was on the bus that was routed to the church.

Good and good for the police.The Police have responsibility to anticipate and prevent violence and allow the free speech of officials and safety of those legally invited to a gathering.The hecklers and dim dem violence-prone have been shown as the threat they are.There has to be constant reevaluation of policy to protect the public and system.The policies are not always written down as a paper-trail toward later blame as that is secondary to primary duty.

President Bush and the good people who provide security for him know enough and have the resolution to ensure that the truth gets out without disruption. The public comes to hear the President, not disrupters.

We see and experience their protests daily - in the MSM through the masquerading of protesters as journalists.

I got tickets to see Bush and they didn't ask any questions. I also got tickets to see Edwards from a link sent to me by MaryBeth Cahill.

The tickets seem to be more for security than anything else. I had to sign my ticket and then they compared my signature to my driver's license.
