Our government is afraid of the people

Judge blocks protesters from marching to West Point to protest Cheney, who will be speaking there tomorrow. The usual national security nonsense was cited as the reason.
Funny, they didn’t block us from protesting near the gate of the US Coast Guard Acaemy on Wednesday when Bush spoke there. I guess Cheney must be extra-sensitive nowadays given that his poll ratings are even worse than Dubya’s. He well may be the most despised person in the government.
The protest, which is expected to draw thousands, will be gathering in a nearby town as planned and the protest and rally will happen, march or no march.

I’m sure it was for your own safety. Cheney must have been armed that day, and his firearm handling leaves something to be desired.
