From: "Robert G Lewis"
Since I haven't seen any of the TV/Radio I can't say anything about them.
The printed reports only talk about their wearing the shirts.
The people protesting over the arrest definitely got out of line and
personally I think the mall should have granted them their wishes and had
them arrested.
