freedom of assembly? of speech?
sorry, never heard of either!i expect that's what federal prosecutors were saying last week as drake university received subpœnas to turn over a list of people involved in an anti-war forum in november 2003 and to order four activists to testify before a grand jury. federal prosecutors withdrew the orders today.
«congress shall make no law abridging the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.»
«congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.»
12 february 04: withdrawn subpœnas still disturbing.
