About the protester denied admission to a Clinton rally
Are there multiple posts on the same incident or is this standard operating procedure for the Clinton campaign? Is this happening at other campaigns? Is is refusing to allow any opposition or just preventing a situation like what happened to Kerry in Florida?

2. No tasers, but it occurred to me that someone might think that by
keeping anyone who looks confrontational out of the rallies and off camera, there will be no next day shots of tasers or fists flying.

7. Sorry - I can't find a link.
I think there were one or two threads on this yesterday, then i saw the Medea one this morning. I think I also saw two threads, one that said Protester removed from (Labor Party rally) just above one that said something about Hillary and I mixed them up when skimming the list. So the questions remain, is this a one time incident or routine procedure? Do other candidates do this?

5. She wore a t-shirt saying
"Bring our troops home" and was forced to leave to leave a Hillary event.

6. Only one of many reasons why Hillary getting the nomination
would be a damn dilemma for me.

8. Very disturbing
We've had almost seven years of that kind of crap. How much of our democracy are we willing to sacrifice? Freedom of Speech is becoming an endangered species.
