18. "officers stationed around that microphone in the first place"
Edited on Tue Sep-18-07 05:09 PM by jberryhill
Were they "stationed around that microphone in the first place", or were they there because of events which ocurred prior to the start of that video clip?

"In 37 years of public appearances, through wars, protests and highly emotional events, I have never had a dialogue end this way," Kerry said in a statement. "I believe I could have handled the situation without interruption, but I do not know what warnings or other exchanges transpired between the young man and the police prior to his barging to the front of the line and their intervention. I asked the police to allow me to answer the question and was in the process of responding when he was taken into custody."

Did anyone else in line have rights, or just this guy?
