Like Ebbie I really didn't see the crowd harassing him, it looked like most were supporting him. But in any event if we don't protect freedom of speech for everyone , including those we don't agree with we lose it. Little by little I see the Constitution being eroded .. The patriot act is a good example .. we can wire tap without warrant .. The grounds that it was needed holds no water with me. A call to a judge at anytime with probable cause would get a warrant .. but we toss it aside for security reasons. Ben Franklin said those who would trade freedom for security have neither .. so right
