Vets March On Presidential Debate

Risking arrest, about a dozen veterans along with about two hundred students marched on the Presidential debate in New York this evening.  The vets had threatened to march into the debate hall if they were not allowed to have their questions asked at the final Presidential debate.  They were stopped by police about a block from the debate.

With the crowd shouting "let them in" and "shame on you" to police, about seven of the veterans were detained.  In our Blip player below, youcan see the videos from the march, including the one where they state the questions they want answered.The vets are marching because they say their issues have been ignored by the candidates.
