SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Former Republican presidential candidate Alan Keyes and 21 others have been arrested after they marched on the University of Notre Dame campus to protest President Obama's upcoming commencement speech.

About 75 protesters gathered Friday outside the school's front gate to pray and listen to Keyes speak before about 30 of them walked onto campus. Some apparently intended to be arrested.

Police say the 22 arrested were handcuffed and taken to the St. Joseph County Jail on trespassing charges. They were held on $250 bond.

The protesters disapprove of the president's support of abortion rights and embryonic stem-cell research. Notre Dame invited Obama to speak at the May 17 commencement.



So exactly what tyranny did you overcome today, Alan?

3. Obama Is Wrong To Support U.S. Law on Abortion?

Hmmm.

Last I heard, abortion was legal in America.

4. These hypocrites would never march for a REAL issue.

Like the illegal, unnecessary war they supported or the torture they're still making excuses for! GRRRRRR! :mad:

5. I hope when Alan passes

his brain someway gets donated to science so they can figure what the hell kind of chemical imbalance was controlling his thought processes.
