re: #244 iceweasel
Uh, actually Bush had people detained and questioned, or arrested, just for wearing Tshirts. You couldnt even get into one of his events if you had an anti-war bumpersticker. At his events protesters were always corralled in a side area. And people were arrested for even looking like they might be there to protest.

So far, after three weeks of trying, not a single person has successfully pointed out to me a single instance of a protester being arrested for threatening Bush’s life at a protest. I’m beginning to suspect it never happened.
And no, excluding protesters from camera range at Bush in-person events does not count. Were some off those politically motivated exclusions/arrests? Possibly. But that’s a different category of incident.
