over-the-top incident of clearly illegal suppression of free speech: Three people were evicted from a taxpayer-supported public presidential speech because of their bumper sticker. One of the two men who evicted them was identified as a Young Republican leader and the other, who identified himself as Secret Service but was not, has had his identity protected....for now.
