VIDEO: CITIZEN JOURNALIST FORCIBLY REMOVED FROM VAN JONES EVENT

On November 30th, former Obama Green Jobs Czar Van Jones spoke at Washington University in St. Louis. The event was billed as being 'open to the public.' Citizen journalist and blogger Adam Sharp arrived at the event and began video recording. Several people approached him and demanded he shut off his camera. Sharp actually pointed out several other people in the auditorium who had cameras rolling as well but was told he didn't have 'authorization,' implying the others did.

After Jones' speech, he took questions after giving Sharp permission to film during the speech. Sharp asked Jones about the 9/11 Truth document he signed as well as the rap song he recorded with cop killer Mumia Abu Jamal. Nor surprisingly, Jones attempted to ignore him while carrying on about migratory birds and windmills.

The good stuff starts at the 4:00 mark.
