[Mermaid]Across the pond, UFP(United for Peace and Justice)will, however,
march for peace past the UN plaza and through midtown Manhattan and end the
rally in Central Park. On Feb 15th! New York City refused to issue a permit
for the parade under any circumstances.

[Jake]  Under ANY circumstances?  hmmmmmmm.  Well if they really wanted to keep them out they shoulda at least come up with some bogus reasons unrelated to the content of their message, but saying they won't allow the march under ANY circumstances indicates content restriction rather than time, place, and manner restrictions, and at least so far the Supremes still tend to rule against straight content restrictions even though some city will always try it every year, with groups like the KKK or Nazis etc.  Sounds like a trip to the judicial system might be in order for the organizers.
