Orwell in Port Huron

Dr Peter Watts, Canadian science fiction writer, beaten and arrested at US border.

This is a nightmare scenario (seriously, I have refrained from pinching myself only because I know I'm awake). Please spread the word and donate if you can.

That is just APPALLING. Where are the videos? There HAS to be a video of this to back him up! This is a big WTF and I can't believe it! I'll make me a sign and protest at the hearing. This makes Michigan look bad and we don't need this stupidity on our soil. Don't they have better things to do then to assault authors?!
