Engaged in an Argentine-beer-fueled, late-night debate about the evils of the U.S.’s foreign policy, I explained that I had voted against Bush in 2004, and that I would be happier to see him go than most.

...means used by the protesters for getting their message across—we firmly believe that in an academic environment those of all viewpoints deserve a chance to promulgate their views without disruption—we strongly condemn the police’s draconian response. By choosing to disregard unambiguous guidelines emplaced to protect the right to free speech that is so vital to any university’s mission, HUPD risked chilling speech on campus and silencing dissenting views. Thankfully, the University wisely pressed for all charges to be dropped, and a Middlesex County judge dismissed the case...
