Also there is always the possibility that the facts of the case are wrong - i.e if the pair in question were attempting to have a pro-peace rally in a private Mall they should've been escorted out of the building. ernie At 03:31 AM 3/5/03 -0300, you wrote: >Is there any doubt that the USA are not any more in the first stage of >turning into a police state?
