But later on they love me." (AP Photo/John Locher)

FILE - In this file photo from Dec. 14, 2013, Republican National Committeeman Dave Agema speaks in Lansing, Mich. On Wednesday, Jan. 22, 2014, U.S. District Judge Janet Neff dismissed Agema's legal claims against the Council for American-Islamic Relations and the group's Michigan leader, Dawud Walid, over a letter that Walid wrote protesting a planned 2012 speech by anti-Muslim activist Kamal Saleem at Allegan High School in Allegan, Mich. Police interrupted the speech, saying they were acting on threats against Saleem. Agema, who was connected to the event's organizers, sued Walid and his group, as well as the school district and police, saying that they had violated the U.S. Constitution's right of free speech. Neff ruled that there was no legal basis for the claim. (AP Photo/Lansing State Journal, Robert Killips, File) NO SALES.
