Though by all indications their protests were conducted peaceably, and with proper restraint, these men and women were forcibly detained, unceremoniously dragged down to the police station, and eventually charged with a total of three separate felonies and five misdemeanors

Well, according to the police, their charges included "possession of instruments of crime" (a bullhorn), "ethnic" intimidation (reciting a Biblical passage), and "inciting a riot" (again, reading verses from the Bible). All told, the protesters faced more than $90,000 in fines and court costs, and the very real prospect of facing as many as 47 years in prison. Continued

ahh... but do you shed a tear for the left-leaning protesters who have been unjustifiably detained?
i think not. but you should.
No, i don't shed a tear for them but then i don't shed tears because that's what chicks and children do and i am neither.
Besides, if they lean left i'm sure it was justified;)
