It is not unconstitutional to put protesters in a confined area, esp. when there is a threat (real or a significant possibility) to the peace. As you indicated, there could be a real threat to the peace Nice try though!!!

Maybe instead we should just have no rules and let them mob the limos and rush the stage

BTW - the D conv. had similar rules for protesters. But, did we hear a peep out of the D's that it was unfair to put the R and far far left out of sight
