So much for free speech! It's a good thing our Founding Fathers didn't have to limit their activities to the petty thinking of local officials.

Thomas Hutchison would be wondering why he didn't have this ordinance to protect his Boston home when the Sons of Liberty ransacked it in the 1770s. I'm sure some of his innocent neighbors also felt unsafe. The founders recognized the need for a moral citizenry when they drafted our governing documents. I am sure there are some researchers and some research methods that are amoral, and the use of primates in medical research presents what to many are ethical questions, but I believe to equate other primates or animal life to human life is unquestionable immoral.

Lets use the protesters for research and save the monkeys.
