Is It Free Speech If Protesters In Effect Are Put In Quarantine?

Is It Free Speech If Protesters In Effect Are Put In Quarantine? - from TBO.com
Joe Redner loves beautiful women and the First Amendment. When he's not with one, he's studying the other.
So it's no surprise the owner of Tampa's most famous strip club, the Mons Venus, was arrested one November day in 2002 for Scotch-taping case law onto poster board and protesting a ``free-speech zone'' outside the Sun Dome at the University of South Florida, where President Bush was scheduled to rally for his brother.
And it's no surprise he was sitting in a federal courthouse 2 1/2 years later, watching his attorney argue that his civil rights were trampled by those responsible for the arrest.
Women have made Redner a lot of money. The First Amendment is helping him spend it.

Regardless on how you feel about strip clubs, you have to give Redner major props for fighting for free speech all the time. The man must spend a fortune on attorneys. And this quarantine crap Bush has started is one of the most offensive things he has ever done. Protest all you want as long as we don't have to see you. Keep fightin' Joe!
