Columbia University group defends Minuteman speech protest - New York

A spokeswoman for the Chicano Caucus, university senior Karina Garcia, denied that her group had interfered with anyone’s right of free speech and said news reports of Minuteman founder Jim Gilchrist being attacked by protesters were untrue.”
