ACLU Files Lawsuit on Behalf of Protesters Arrested at Bush Rally in Pennsylvania
The lawsuit charges that federal agents, East Lampeter Township police officers and Pennsylvania State Police troopers violated the men's constitutional rights by illegally arresting them in order to suppress a peaceful, symbolic political protest against President Bush.
About a dozen anti-war protesters were arrested Tuesday morning during a peaceful demonstration of President Bush's speech before the U.N. General Assembly.

Many in the crowd wore orange jumpsuits in solidarity with the Guantanamo detainees.
