It was private property and they weren't invited. They were trespassing. [/quote] It makes it a police state because only the establishment approved candidates are allowed. Do you see how that works now? [/quote] That's not what police state means. Maybe you should read up more. My point still stands though. They were not invited. These aren't government sponsored debates and there is no reason for them to think they have any right to be there. [/quote]

Police arrested Green Party Presidential candidate Jill Stein and her running mate, Cheri Honkala, after they tried to enter the site of tonight’s presidential debate at the Hofstra University.
The two were protesting against the exclusion of all but the two major political parties from taking part in the debate.
