well and then i sat down to watch the introductory speeches.
there was a tribute to cindy sheehan and i got up to use the loo and i was asked to leave...right before the main speaker was scheduled to speak. campus security was called by one of the women who was organizing the event. i informed security that i was a deep believer in the cause of peace and could not afford to attend the event.
if i can recall correctly, the protesters who interrupted don rumsfeld a few years ago at the national press club (?) speech were allowed to speak, and at least be heard from.
as i understand it, some americans abroad are beginning to fear admitting their citizenship because of a growing level of hatred directed at the USA.
