"Glenn Beck Confronted, Protagonists Questioned By Secret Service; Ron Paul supporters threatened with arrest for asking CNN host about recent tirade linking them with terrorists" by Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet Monday, November 26, 2007
Members of We Are Change Ohio were threatened with arrest and questioned by members of the Secret Service before and after confronting CNN host Glenn Beck this past weekend about his efforts to link Ron Paul supporters with terrorists, during public appearances at which Beck was promoting his new book.
Pro-Ron Paul demonstrators were waiting for Beck as he arrived at two separate events in Ohio, but those who tried to question Beck about his recent tirade about the Congressman's supporters being a "physical threat" that should be dealt with by the U.S. military were quickly booted out by security and threatened with arrest by police if they re-entered the bookstore.
Beck and his mindless sycophants applauded as Change members were frog-marched out of the building for asking a question. During one more low-key exchange, Beck did agree to have Ron Paul on his CNN show. Attempts to give Beck a V For Vendetta DVD were unsuccessful.

U.S. taxpayers footed the bill for four police to man the event at the second appearance in Columbus, along with several other plain clothed officers and even Secret Service officials who, according to demonstrators, questioned Ron Paul supporters.
Activists claimed that Beck's employees admitted Secret Service were chaperoning Beck, leading to charges that Beck is being directly bankrolled and protected by the government to spew his propaganda.
One man was questioned about Ron Paul as he lined up to meet Beck.
"I know it wasn't one of these people (the Ron Paul supporters)," he remarked.
"They looked like former military officers," he added.
