...Forget the First! But it will be hard to keep it out. During House hearings on the draft, Louisiana's Democratic Congressman F. Edward Hébert went so far as to ask whether there was any way to "get around" the First Amendment in order to prosecute "the Carmichaels and the Kings" for urging defiance of the draft. When he was told that there was not, Hébert impatiently cried: "Let's forget the First Amendment!"

Violence diffuses through the room like the smoke, and it is easy to forget that the friendly shoves are shoves. Then maybe a drunk comes in. Vic says to the stranger, "Go now. That kid in blue is drunk. He's crazy when he's drunk." The drunk manages to get in one good punch before the stranger can duck or the rest of the kids...
