Did the protesters in 1773 have to get a permit from the city of Boston to dump the tea into the harbor?
Specifically, the suit [by groups planning parades or protests at the Democratic National Convention in Denver] asks the court to order the Secret Service to immediately provide information to the city that will allow Denver officials to begin considering permit requests for parades and specifying a “demonstration zone” near the convention center. The suit also asks the court to review those regulations for violations of free speech protection.
