Re: the May 17 article "New law protects student speech, targets protesters delaying rallies."

I am absolutely outraged at HB 2548, which could mean six months in jail for blocking traffic. Republicans claim that they want less government but what they really want is to control the thoughts and behavior of every man, woman and child in sight. This law would be at home in China, Saudi Arabia or Cuba, but fits perfectly with the Republican Party's attitude toward other people's civil and human rights. We should all go to Phoenix and block all traffic around the capitol until this outrage is overturned.
