I don’t dislike Bush’s policies  enough to risk being arrested because I was using my right to free speech in a public area.  That happened here a couple years ago (before the election campaign)  The guy was outside a building in which Bush was speaking holding a placard and it was an area in which all and sundry were pernited, including those who were there for reasons totally unrelated to Bush being there.  However, he was told to leave by the Praetorian Guard (Secret Service) and foolishly thought he had a right to free speech in this country.  Now it would have been one thing if he had tried his protesting in an area that had been restricted to only Bush supporters, but that wasn’t the nature of the area at all.

This is more proof that Bush's followers are intolerant of anyone who dares to disagree with him.

Back during the 2000 campaign, Bush displayed his intolerance of dissent at Devou Park in Covington, KY.

I was there to witness the whole thing.

A young woman made an anti-Bush sign that said "GEORGE BUSH, BITE MY TUSH", and some Nazi wearing a Bush t-shirt came along and violently ripped the sign out of her hand and threw it at her.

I tried chasing the Nazi, but two Nazi police officers started a fight with me, instead of arresting the Nazi who started the confrontation.

A Bush supporter threw my Kerry Edwards sign out a window election night. Rather than get mad I jumped out the window. It was only somethin like a ten foot drop and was at least entertaining. The thing that really pissed me off was when my bumper stickers kept getting stolen. AND I LIVE IN A DEMOCRATIC COUNTY!!!!

Just a couple weeks ago, someone cut the front brake on my bike because it had a Kerry sticker.
