...Claire Provost ’07 says she did nothing technically illicit on the night of her arrest, when the pint-sized blonde and three like-minded students staged a protest during FBI Director Robert S. Mueller??s talk last month. Provost did nothing illegal, but that doesn’t mean she didn’t want to. “I would have loved to rush the stage,” she says. “The FBI is an inherently violent institution.

Roosevelt ’07 without warning sets a dangerous precedent that should not be repeated.The incident in question occurred a few minutes into Mueller??s speech at the Institute of Politics (IOP). During a pause, the four protesters—one of whom is an inactive Crimson editorial editor and one of whom is an inactive Crimson news editor—sequentially walked out and shouted a few short prepared sentences about...
