Subject: Protestor Arrested at Palin Rally at Elon University


Towards the end of the Palin rally at Elon Univeristy, a sophomore named
Andy Milne, was arrested for disorderly conduct for heckling. Palin even
made a reference to his outburst
. We got very got footage of him being
taken out by the police, he was yelling and screaming about his right to
have an Obama sign at the rally. He is yelling at our camera, and gets
pushed down by cops on the police car.
……


An ironic twist to this story is that Brian Wilson interviewed him
yesterday on the Strategy Room during the 5 oclock hour.

OH Yes, What a surprise, a posting from the super bias Fox news. The right wing drive by media.

If McCain/Palin are elected we can kiss goodbye to the First Amendment.

Have you check what flavor of Fancy Feast you like best yet? That what we all will be eating if McCain's elected.

If you google this story Palin Rally Elon College arrest or anything like that you won't find this story anywhere on the MSM.

I don't get the point.

So, was he shouting out "terrorist" "off with his head" threats of any kind, or just heckling?


I guess if the RNC hired the venue, they could toss who they wanted.

I'll give it some time to see if the story surfaces and get back to you.


However, you didn't actually answer my question. What makes you think that this incident "shines negatively on the Obama voters"?

First thing that came up when I googled it:

I think that one reason why the "kill him" story was carried and widely discussed is because a death threat is much more worrisome than someone just wanting to hold the wrong sign at a rally. Again....this happened fairly recently so I'll keep my eyes open for it. The "kill him" story took a few days to gain any sort of momentum.
