Today’s editorial attacking the state policy banning flag poles on the Capitol is spot-on.
The closer:
In the absence of a real threat, governmental restrictions on speech
should be as rare and light as possible. After all, protests (of
whatever political flavor) aren’t some occasional annoyance to be
tolerated – they’re what the original tea partiers, Boston harbor
edition, were all about.
Have fun today, folks, but behave.
