Incidentally, I'm not arguing that the theater should have called the police on a matter such as this... I think that was a lousy way to deal with the problem, and makes them out to be assholes. But just as she has the right to be a bitch, they have the right to be assholes. They were within their legal rights. The cops were just doing their jobs, which is to uphold the law, and not arresting a woman for any anti-Bush sentiments, real or imagined.
Hell, I went head-to-head with a theater manager once when he insulted my wife and I, and called him some unsavory names... and they threated to have security remove me from the theater. They would have been within their legal rights to toss me out, despite the fact that they initiated the conflict. But they realized that it wasn't worth the bad karma, and backed off.
