"Protect our civil liberties" Message considered "Obscene"
Advertisements [?]
At a rally in Oregon, three local teachers wore T shirts with the message "Protect our Civil Liberties". They had obtained tickets, and had made it thru the two checkpoints, and onto the fairgrounds, when event officials told them to leave, as the message on their shirts was "obscene". The tickets were taken from them, and they were threatened with arrest.

So far the only report I have found is from a Portland TV station. They require registration, but you don't have to supply a valid email.
