What I want to know is why Mr war protester himself Kerry didn't say anything to defend the kid. He is afterall a pro at protesting, throwing his medals over fences, and being anti-establishment. This kid was obviously some big lib journalist student, probably a moveon.org person but they didn't remove him until he mentioned Kerry's Skull and Bones membership. To me this further reinforces the fact that Kerry is a hypocrite who doesn't have a clue.

I'm anything but a Kerry fan but he did say to let the guy talk. I understand his mostly complete silence afterwards as assuming the police are doing their duty. He did the correct thing and why shouldn't he.
I still believe that this is really a close call and find it hard to decide based on the videos at hand. And whether the jerk intentionally set this up as a publicilty stunt or not is irrelevant to the police's obligations to act appropriately and again I'm not saying they didn't.
If nothing further can be clarified in court, I would hope the judge would let everyone go back home with warnings and that's that.
