Thought Bouncers 2
Censorship must be the American Way (emphasis added):
The former official, Steve Atkiss, revealed the policy Friday in an interview after two volunteer bouncers identified him and a current White House staffer, Jamie O’Keefe, as the officials who ordered the so-called Denver Three activists sent away from the event.
The activists had done nothing to disrupt the forum, and two of them sued over the incident.
Clearly, it is important to have bouncers thought police at political functions. After all, the market place of ideas must be reduced to a monopoly small selection of one or someone might have a dissident competing original competent thought.
And we can’t have that, can we?
