The arrest of Republican couple Jeffery and Nicole Rank during the 2004 Presidential Fourth of July State Visit of former President George W. Bush in Charleston, West Virginia for simply wearing anti-Bush shirts was indeed unjustifiable and irrelevant.

Curbing the disastrous effects of global warming has been one of the loudest calls of the Obama administration as well as the United Nations.
