here's how I feel about protesters disrupting political rallies.
If it's a press conference and you want to squeeze your question in good for you, the candidate is taking questions, but maybe not yours w/out press credentials. oh well.
If it's a rally and the candidate has paid his dime to speak & make it happen then you really have NO right to interrupt it or do you think that some crappy garage band has the right to try to upstage and interrupt the Rolling Stones while they're on stage because they think they actually have the right to free speech and freedom of expression anywhere? same exact premise.
now let's just say every single douchenozzle that wants to interrupt a political rally has the right to actually be heard instead of being dragged off? how would we know what the politicians position was on anything? and btw, any decent controversial question needing to be asked or point needing to be made will certainly be fielded by one reporter or another or by their opponents.
a protester disrupting a rally is as productive as a fan running across a baseball field.
btw, if we disrupted Romney @ one rally we might never have heard him utter those profound words in Michigan, "I love this state, it seems right here, trees are the right height."
or Rick Santorum spewing: "The British were the most powerful army in the world, navy in the world; they were ruled by highly educated noble people. Their uniforms were crisp and stiff! they looked good!"
why interrupt these guys, they'll bury themselves.
got something to say? hold your own rally, if your point is valid and of concern to millions I'm sure your rally will be a huge success, if not you'll be the first to know.
