As I read this, we have both assault and unlawful imprisonment.

White House Advisor Karl Rove was the target of a protest on the American University campus Tuesday night, News4 reported.

Rove was on the campus to talk to the College Republicans, but when he got outside more than a dozen students began throwing things at him and at his car, an American University spokesperson said.

The students then got on the ground and laid down in front of his car as a protest.

The students said security officials picked them up and carried them away so Rove could leave.

Police said they have dealt with a lot of protests on campus and this one was handled peacefully.

No one was arrested.

Let’s hope that American university takes appropriate disciplinary action against the students in question for their unlawful conduct which certainly violates the campus code of conduct – provided, of course, that conservatives receive equal protection of campus regulations. After all, could you imagine that no arrests would have been made if this were Al Sharpton, Hillary Clinton, or Nancy Pelosi?
