View Full Version : Land of the Free?
The arrest of Beverly was to try and water down or justify Cindy's arrest. Cindy walked in wearing a jacket. The second she exposed her shirt she was arrested. Beverly was escorted to her seat by officials in her support the troops shirt (not pro war- it was support the troops). She sat for hours until bush was speaking. When they realized that it was Cindy they arrested and no regular protestor they had to do something to save face. So they decided to escort Beverly from the building (hours later) so they would seem impartial.
Where did you get that info'?
In a free country you should be able to wear a shirt that says support the troops in congress!
You would think so! :eek:

Tafadhali 02-03-06, - 01:34 AM what this all is about to me is tolerance and respect- when people are doing wrong and they have power they will try to suppress you in anyway they can. We could use some of this tolerance and respect in our own backyard.

I get the sense that your anti indiidual free speech or at least pro censorship whenever others have decenting opinions?

Nope...just would have liked to hear the speech with no interuption.
If she wants to dissent, she should win a damn seat in the house...
its not like sheehan was outside with a placard...
there is this sea of fringe protestors who are interupting official programs, and that is not only rude but infringes on someone elses right to free speech!!
no?
Lincoln 02-03-06, - 08:43 PM The police have now said that they were totally wrong for arresting Cindy and Beverly In the house. They have apologized. Now after suing them cindy will have lots of money to buy more t shirts.
Actually they never arrested Beverly- just asked her to leave.

I guess YK2BAD and you other anti freedom kooks were wrong.
Alien 02-03-06, - 09:24 PM yea...and i admit i was wrong for letting one "slip past the goal post" on my girl friend....
doesnt mean that i still would not have done it.:taped2:
well they could have been in a sensitive mode for anyone else after sheehan and that could be the reason why beverly was treated so fairly!
Without a doubt sheehan was an accident ready to happen mid speech!
BTW..her own husband has denounced her...and her other son has joined the military..go figure!

bahmaboy 02-03-06, - 10:35 PM until they stop allowing my girlfriend to dress like a slut and stop me from flipping cops off (just did that 2 weeks ago) then i will ask where is the freedom.
MS. Sheehan although it is unfortunate she lost her son, she has to accept it. He was not drafted, he voluntered.

if it was anyone's fault (other than the actual pizheds that killed him), was hers for not letting him realise that the millitary train to kill other people, and in so doing, you open yourself up to be killed.

i agree, she should have talked him out of it.
but if she didn't start to cause a scene, how could she be arrested?
that's sorta like me going into shop ceneter with a liscensed hand gun,
in texas where can carry one in plain view, and gettign arredted cause i might rob the shop?
that was not enough intent in my opinion to be arrested, besides they should have told her she would be arrested IF she refuses to zip her jacket.
there is no such think as a free country
try going to church with a big picture of buddha or maybe bob marley on your shirt - or show up a plp convention with your fnm shirt on - and see what you will get - my barber tried that and now he is blind in one eye.:sarcastic
