protestable

With the Republican National Convention hours from liftoff in our fair Cities, certain individuals are being subjected to police raids and detention — not because they're doing anything disruptive, but because somebody thinks they might be thinking of doing so later maybe. Citizens assembling peacefully to plan peaceful protests — the legal, protected-by-the-first-amendment kind — have seen their homes and public meeting places invaded and their literature and belongings seized because . . . yeah, no good reason. Google it. You'll find more reports than I can keep up with.

This kind of cowardly bullying certainly does not make me proud.
