25. There's something awfully fishy about that guy's performance
He seems like a College Republican there to stir the shit (maybe Campus Police were aware he'd pull this and gave him a fair shot on the mic before he decided to go too far and harrass Kerry).

Most everyone stays sitting down but only the one other girl is yelling on his behalf and strangely enough he has his own personal cameraman to record the situation for him... also and someone else mentioned it here, you can clearly make out everything he is saying on the audio yet the police are impossible to hear. Which makes me think he was wearing a mic.

This seems staged and his reaction afterwards seems phony and set up in a way to embarrass Kerry.

When Edwards was running for VP he came to Oshkosh, WI. I was a part of that event and although there were a ton of positive Democrats there for him the Republicans sent a handful of their nuttiest to try to protest him and his visit. When we went outside I asked why they were protesting... after all he hadn't started an illegal war, wasn't in the White House and had very little power in the Senate as part of a minority in both houses of Congress.

They made reasons up... Abortion... Guns... whatever it took to justify being there just so they could try to interfere with his presence.

I get the feeling that this is what this kid was doing and his scheme worked because now the national media is making Kerry look like he was part of something seriously disturbing and he's probably lining up RW trial lawyers (funny how that is supposed to be an oxymoron) that will sue the police for this kid.
