Some protesters at the Democratic National Convention plan to demonstrate against the fenced-in area being prepared for them near the Pepsi Center.
They're calling it the "freedom cage" because it will be surrounded by two layers of chain-link fences. Mark Cohen, co-founder of Recreate 68, says his group will only protest in the demonstration zone once to show how much they disapprove of it. He says the protesters will look like prisoners protesting behind the fences.
His comments came during a one-day trial in federal court challenging the city's limits on protesters. Closing arguments are scheduled for tomorrow.
