Heard this on the news yesterday......
In Boston, a guy who owns a little resturaunt closed up for the Democratic visit because they were going to put on a "free luncheon" or something and he knew he couldn't compete. So he took the day off and closed his place.
He had a "Bush for president, not Kerry" sign in his window.
Well supposedly some Dems. took offense to that and he was asked to take it down.
He refused citing free speech.
the result?
they contacted the big wheels in the city and asked them to blackmail the guy.
now the guy might lose his resturaunt.
Now I hope Kerry isn't involved in this--wether he is or not cannot be said. But it's pretty rotten and lowdown for the Dems to get the city to blackmail some innocent person just for doing free speech.
