This is a video taken at Occupy Atlanta, one of the many spin off protests modeled after Occupy Wall Street, where some pseudo-Marxist finger-wiggling "decided" not to let John Lewis speak.
He's not good enough for your protest? Seriously? Let's put aside that he's been a Democratic member of Congress for thirteen terms, and specifically spoke out in solidarity with OWS. John Lewis is a civil rights hero. During the 1960's, he was arrested over 40 times in non-violent protests. After the police fractured his skull while leading a march, he stopped to appear before television cameras to call on President Johnson to do something, before going to the hospital. Later, he was nearly beaten to death by an angry mob, after the KKK fire-bombed the bus he was riding, and broke a wooden crate over Lewis' head. After that, he he helped organize a another bus, which landed him 40 days in jail...
Sorry, South Park hippies, but he is a "better human being".
