I'd guess. I won't go to the full article. It does PO me that they're arguing over "security" for R's and where the line should be, when not one agency is talking about the right of Protestors to be there and fulfill their First Amendment rights.

DO we have any more rights are not any longer? Are we still living under a Constitution? Or have the R's just swept in and, Prez or not, just taken everything over? Because right now, that's what it's feeling like to me.
