just like the republicans have goons." as said by Medea Benjamin on Hardball segment Protecting the First Amendment.
I know Medea Benjamin is an activist and founder of Code Pink. I also agree with most of her positions and support her and Code Pink's activism against the war.
The point of the segment was on free speech. Democrats in general and Hillary Clinton in particular were dammed for adopting republican tactics such as "free speech zones" and goons.
This is a big issue for me. I would like Hillary Clinton and her campaign to clarify whether or not they adopt republican tactics at her campaign events. Have people with contrary opinions been prevented from entering a Hillary Clinton campaign event? If so why?
Also I would like to see Democrats encourage people with contrary opinions to attend the convention. I remember Chicago in 1968. I was not there, but those were my peers that were beaten for protesting the war.
Republicans and Democrats both in 2004 adopted techniques that limited debate. I expect nothing less from republicans. I expect more from democrats.
