The campus police would not let the general public in to hear John Yoo
speak even though it had been advertised as a public event the night
before.
About 15 activists decided to peacefully protest John Yoo about the
policy memos he drafted for the Bush administration including
warrantless wiretaps, rendition to foreign secret prisons,
torture/waterboarding, indefinite detention without legal council and
the overall suspension of habeus corpus. Representatives from the
American Civil Liberties Union, the World Can't Wait.net,
OpposeTorture.org, and War Criminal Watch were present at this protest.
