I think it was wrong to arrest George Clooney for this. The government did violate the Bill of rights by arresting him. I would not be willing to get arrested for something that I believed in. It's your rights and you should be able to support those rights.

I don't think it was right for Clooney to get arrested just because he was protesting. If Clooney was causing a large amount of trouble during his protest, then it wasn't violating his rights. It is clear that Clooney cares a tremendous amount about this cause. So in his case, I can understand where he was willing to be arrested. However, I would not risk my record for something I believed in.

I don't understand why he can't stand there so I don't think he should've been arrested. I don't know what the official chargers where but from what they said it seems stupid. I think he did a great thing by speaking but that he'll probably be let go with a slap on the wrist because it doesn't seem like he was arrested for anything legitimate. I think it's great that he stood up for something he believed in. I think if there was an issue I was really passionate about I'd probably do the same thing.

It wasn't right for arresting Clooney for this but I guess it's against there law. I don't know if the government violated the Bill of Rights by arresting him if what he did occurred in another country. There are some things that I believe in to the point I'd get arrested. Hopefully, it won't get to that point. Clooney is definitely getting the publicity that he wants.

I don't know why they would arrest Clooney for what he did. I think it was real unnecessary to do this. He shouldn't have been arrested for doing something he believes in. The government violated his rights.

I think it was right. I think the government violated his rights. He should be able to voice his opinions. In the bill of rights he is allowed to stand up for what he want to change. I would get arrested for something I believe in.

I really do not know if it was right arrest George Clooney for his actions. I believe they had too because of how the government works. Everybody still knew that George was doing the right thing. Yes, I would be willing to get arrested for something I believe in. If you are not willing to get arrested, then obviously your beliefs aren't that strong.

I'm not sure why Clooney was arrested for what he did. I feel like the government did violate the Bill of Rights by arresting him. It's not like he did anything really bad. I honestly don't know if I would be willing to get arrested for something I believe in.

I don't think it was right to arrest George Clooney. Even though he did break the law he meant no harm. I don't know if the government violated the Bill of Rights. If I truly believed in I would fight for what I thought was right.

I think it was wrong to arrest Clooney for this. Since it happened in another country i'm not sure if it falls under violation of rights, but its still wrong in my opinion. I don't ever want to be arrested but I definitely do stand up for what I believe in. I speak my mind all the time and feel like if I don't agree with something I shouldn't act like I do. Please don't grade :)
