Freedom speaks even at the mall
by digitalreporter at 11:29 am EST, Mar 28, 2003

] Like the West Nile virus, shopping center censorship has
] moved coast to coast -- all the way to Seattle's Westlake
] Center.
]
] An Albany, N.Y., shopping mall ejected a man for wearing
] a "Peace on Earth" T-shirt. The man's son avoided
] trespassing charges only by taking off his "Give peace a
] chance" T-shirt. Both had bought their shirts at the
] mall.
]
] Are T-shirts an element of speech?
]
] In Dearborn, Mich., high school administrators told a
] 16-year-old to remove a T-shirt with a photograph of
] President Bush and the words "International Terrorist,"
] reports First Amendment Center Executive Director Ken
] Paulson.
]
] In Seattle, security guards at Westlake Center have
] ousted those who dare enter carrying protest signs, even
] if they're just passing through to the monorail station.
