Abstract
Abstract On March 21, 2005, three Denver residents were removed from a town-hall style meeting where President George W. Bush discussed his administration's plans for Social Security reform. According to initial reports, the residents were identified and removed because of a bumper sticker visible on the car they drove to the event which stated “No More Blood for Oil.” The incident raises dual questions of whether the individuals responsible for the trio's removal can be considered “state actors” for purposes of analyzing a constitutional claim on their behalf and whether, even if state action is present, the removal violated their First Amendment rights. This article concludes that a case can be made for both the presence of state action and a First Amendment violation.
