On Feb. 15th, there was a huge rally right near my BF's apartment. They had speakers up and down the avenue. We couldn't avoid hearing these speeches. Now I am all for free speech and voicing your opinions, but they were infringing on our rights (and the rights of all of his neighbors) to enjoy the comfort and quiet of our homes. Now maybe technically a quiet home isn't a right, but that rally was definitely intrusive. We were sitting in his apartment with the windows closed and couldn't avoid Susan Sarandon and Rosie Perez's speeches. When the crowds finally cleared, NYC had a five million dollar bill for police overtime and our Saturday was lost.
