Activists Ask Who Led Them From Bush Event

A lawyer for three people removed from a President Bush town hall meeting — allegedly because of a "No More Blood for Oil" bumper sticker on their car — said Friday he is seeking the identity of the man who escorted the activists out, and plans to sue.

"We want to know who this person is, and who trained them, because we're going to sue" both the man and his trainers, said Dan Recht, a lawyer representing activists Alex Young, Karen Bauer and Leslie Weise.


The three belong to the organization Denver Progressives. The day after the president's March 21 town hall meeting, the three were told by the Secret Service they were singled out because they belong to the "No Blood for Oil" anti-war group. They believe the statement was a reference to their bumper sticker.
