I’ve been watching the protestors on cpsan … I guess they were wrestled into a 1 block area … When preparing for today they requested a tent that could be utilized as a warming tent, but were told by the secret service that they couldn’t have a tent because they wouldn’t be able to see inside it.
The organizers then asked if a transparent tent could be used – this was okayed by the secret service. So the organizers purchased a transparent tent – then the night before were told they wouldn’t be able to use it because it might create a glare.
Yep – sounds like a free society to me!
