DC Police Suppress and Arrest Iraq War Veteran

UPDATE: sickening
adjective
Extremely unpleasant to the senses or feelings: atrocious, disgusting, foul, horrid, nasty, nauseating, offensive, repellent, repulsive, revolting, ugly, unwholesome, vile. See like, pain
(try any of those on for bushco, I think I've used them all already .... guess I'm NOT that slow with the english language .. LOL) Yknow what it IS? It's that I've used them SO MUCH, because I talk about our fearless, clueless dear leader SO MUCH. THAT'S why it feels over-used.

If you're a regular reader you're already aware that what these folks are doing is WELL WITHIN the letter of the law in DC and anywhere in America. If you call yourself an American
then SHAME ON YOU if you are standing by or sitting by doing NOTHING while these people are arrested when they've done nothing but exercise their FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS. This is a Mom of a soldier and an Iraqi Vet. Who do we SUPPORT? Well, it's SUPPOSED TO BE : EACH OTHER.

Wait ..... what COUNTRY is this? Is this America the Beautiful?? NOT since George Bush and CO. came along. But it started even before this.

Man, we have them scared ... of some MOMS and an Iraqi WAR VETERAN. (Don't forget, if YOU are a TROOP SUPPORTER, this guy is A TROOP)

George has them ride a horse through a crowd of media and demonstrators. Clearly political. Clearly FUCKING DANGEROUS. Horses against people. Owned horses. Quite a few injuries with the big beasts and we never rode them through a crowd.

This is SICKENING. I need a new word.

Click this link to see a video of the police repression.Three anti-war activists were arrested in front of the White House today after the U.S. Park Police moved to suppress a press conference called to protest the fines and threats against the ANSWER Coalition for putting up anti-war posters promoting the September 15 March and Die-In in Washington DC.
The arrested were Tina Richards, CEO of Grassroots America and mother of Iraq War Veteran Cloy Richards; Adam Kokesh, the Co-Chair Elect of the Iraq Veterans Against the War and member of Veterans for Peace; and Ian Thompson, an organizer with the ANSWER Coalition.
The press conference became a chaotic scene as U.S. Park Police interrupted the event on the basis that there was no permit for a folding table that was used as a speaker’s stand for media microphones. As U.S. Park Police officers surrounded the group, an officer on horseback rode into the crowd to disperse the media and onlookers.
Tina Richards and Adam Kokesh had announced that they would put a September 15 March to Stop the War poster on a lamppost following the press conference. The ANSWER Coalition has been fined over $30,000 in the last three weeks in an unprecedented action aimed at suppressing the September 15 mobilization. The three were taken to the Central District Substation of the United States Park Police. They will later be transferred to a jail in which they will spend the night before being arraigned in U.S. Superior Court tomorrow afternoon.
Attorneys at the Partnership for Civil Justice have filed a Free Speech lawsuit to strike down the unconstitutional postering law. The ANSWER Coalition has refused to pay these illegal fines.
Momentum continues to build for the September 15 Mass March, which will be led by Iraq War Veterans and their family members. More than 100 cities are mobilizing to bring people by bus, van and car caravan. The September 15 March will culminate with a large scale Die-In/Funeral for U.S. servicemembers and Iraqis who have been killed in this criminal war of aggression.
