Movie Goer Assaulted at Fahrenheit 9/11 Showing
(Jun. 25) -- The highly anticipated film, Fahrenheit 9/11, came with more than just controversy at one Las Vegas movie theatre. Moviegoer, Richard Streeter, was one of the many who made his way to a theatre to see what the hype was about. After viewing the film, he was greeted outside the theatre by members of the Las Vegas MoveOn.org.

The group was handing out leaflets on the importance of the film. Streeter voiced his view on the movie, "I made the comment, apples and oranges -- Kerry, Bush -- one's no better than the other. You really ain't got much of a choice. This guy comes up to me and says, 'Oh yeah?' " Streeter was then spat on by the same man.

Can I just laugh? Is that ok? Not that I condone that behavior but isnt it about time?

2. So was the guy who spat a * or Kerry fan? The story does not
make that clear. Neither does it make it clear if he had attended the film. :shrug:

4. Well...
