They will NOT HARM ONE OF US. I know the PINK protesters status but have seen nothing about the fate of this guy. If anyone hears anything please post. We owe him this. We need to protect each other now.

1. Hear Hear! That, my friends, is a patriot in action!
FREEDOM OF SPEECH = our voices were heard today! Didn't Bush talk about freedom in his speech! Here's a great example. Protect this!

3. What happened to him? What did he do? Yeah, * talked of
"freedom" and our American responsibility to look after it. WHATEVER! * doesn't have the guts to allow freedom. He's "President" Chickenshit or "President" Chicken Little...or, actually, both.

That's what I thought too, freedom of speech, American freedom to speak out and to gather peacefully, to demonstrate and to dissent.

The Coronation looked like a police state. It looked like something some other country would do, not the USA. All the military and police there made it look like what it is, a dictatorship...self-appointed and self-affirming.

God save us from Bush and his allies.

5. I can find no reference to him except in photos. Articles mentioned the..
two PINK protesters that were arrested by name. But not a word of this guy. Hell, sharing "freedom" with the world sure has price here in America.

8. I don't even know what happened to the PINK
protesters. I am on their email list but haven't received one that I know of. Can anyone bring me up to date? If anyone can identify this guy I am sure there will be hundreds who will help with whatever he needs.

12. It seems all those that were protesting the actual speech were arrested.
they released all the women but held two until later in the day. At the time of the article i read they had not been released. But this man was never identified by name. He visibly irritated Bush and i am near certain he was arrested. It is the fact that the articles have not mentioned his name that concerns me.

15. I am concerned too
but the fact that his picture made it into the paper hopefully will help keep him safe. Someone will be missing him and wondering where he is if he fails to show up. You know his friends/family probably knew where he was and what he was doing - and I doubt they will let him be MIA for long.

9. KICK! Please explain what you mean--what did he do--where?
when? A totally inexplicable post. I assume he protested, doing something or other, and got arrested. I see the cop in the photo (but doing what?). Please give whatever details you have. What crowd is he in? Is this all we have? This photo?

10. He "booed" GWB, very loudly
His shouting of "boo" was quite audible to everyone there, and was picked up by the MSM microphones. I was watching CNN and I think they showed him briefly as the police were escorting him out. There are various descriptions on media websites (found via Google News)...here's one:

Another story quoted him as shouting "Hey, Bush, where are the poor? Did you ship them off to war?" after the initial booing.

14. Let's find him and give him a trophy...he needs an award. I am
grateful for his actions. I didn't know it was illegal to boo a "President"?
