First Amendment Video: PhiladelphiaMan Arrested for Wearing McCain-Palin T-shirt

#!%&! The First Amendment:
Obama Supporters and Free Speech in Philadelphia

---

We'll make the observation: the police probably saved this guy's life. We also agree that his actions probably incited the crowd.

However, we will note: if this had happened in 2004, with someone wearing a Kerry-Edwards T-shirt, we would have seen this video on a permanent loop throughout the Left blogosphere.

We can only hope that those who expressed concern--in several cases, legitimate--about free speech rights will express those same concerns in the coming months.
