Apparently several protestors got inside the convention and during parts of the speech one by one they would begin to yell out and instead of being allowd to peacefully protest their disagreements they were all beaten and hauled off the floor.

Yet I have not heard one word in the media about these people. They are likely being held in the basement of the Garden for all we know.

Also incase you didn't hear yesterday a federal judge ruled that more than 450 protestors were wrongfully arrested and charged in N.Y. and they were to be released immedialty. The court levied a $1,000 fine against the city for every hour for every person being illegally held in custody.
Well, I did read that there were MORE arrested at THIS Republican convention than at the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago which blew my mind!
