Skins24 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 http://apnews.myway.com/article/20050926/D8CS3D0G2.html Sheehan Arrested During Anti-War Protest Sep 26, 1:57 PM (ET) By JENNIFER C. KERR WASHINGTON (AP) - Cindy Sheehan, the California woman who has used her son's death in Iraq to spur the anti-war movement, was arrested Monday while protesting outside the White House. Sheehan and several dozen other protesters sat down on the sidewalk after marching along the pedestrian walkway on Pennsylvania Avenue. Police warned them three times that they were breaking the law by failing to move along, then began making arrests. Sheehan, 48, was the first taken into custody. She stood up and was led to a police vehicle while protesters chanted, "The whole world is watching." Sheehan's 24-year-old son, Casey, was killed in an ambush in Sadr City, Iraq, last year. She attracted worldwide attention last month with her 26-day vigil outside President Bush's Texas ranch. Sheehan was among several hundred demonstrators who marched around the White House on Monday and then stopped in front and began singing and chanting "Stop the war now!" The demonstration is part of a broader anti-war effort on Capitol Hill organized by United for Peace and Justice, an umbrella group. Representatives from anti-war groups were meeting Monday with members of Congress to urge them to work to end the war and bring home the troops.

Art Monk Fan Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Cindy Sheehan, the California woman who has used her son's death in Iraq to spur the anti-war movement, was arrested Monday while protesting outside the White House. I am surprised at the phrasing of this lede from the AP. And the fact that it is completely accurate, just makes it even more surprising to me.

Sarge Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Beat her until she gives up what she knows. She doesn't know anything, so a beating would be worthless. BUt she should get one nonetheless. I'm pretty sure there are other crimes in DC the cops could be preventing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 The odd thing is that people in this country no longer seem to have strong feelings towards this war. I remember talking about it a few years back and folks seemed to be strongly for it or strongly against it. Now it's like "meh, whatever let's talk hurricanes" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hokie4redskins Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 "You have the right to remain silent." Not bloody likely. I wonder if she still mourns her son anymore.

Guest sith lord Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 I'll like to ask some people on this board something. How would any of you feel if you lost a child or spouse in a war you didn't agree with? And I don't want to hear the standard copout "they join the military to serve there country and they knew this going in". I applaud what she's doing.

Funny, I don't remember hearing you call for firings when BS was being reported by the AP on the slow Federal response to Katrina or any number of other articles.

So basically you won't accept any answer other than ones you find agreeable or jibe with your own? Par for the course, I guess. At least you're embarassingly consistent.

And I don't want to hear the standard copout "they join the military to serve there country and they knew this going in". I applaud what she's doing. In answer, let me say this: I have no problem with her opposition to the war. I disagree, but I fully support her right to protest this war, including her position as a leader of the proteset and the march on Washington this weekend. I think she's wrong and that she is horribly short-sighted in her thinking, but she's totally entitled to be as wrong as she wants, as loudly as she wants, for as long as she wants, provided she breaks no laws in the process. What I have a major problem with is the way she has used her son's sacrifice to further her politcal goals. He did indeed volunteer for the armed services. He also reinlisted just prior to his death and volunteered for the mission on which he was killed. From all accounts I have read, her son supported this war and died for his convictions. What she has done dishonors his sacrifice and disrespects what he has given for our nation. The AP lede is the most completely honest bit of reporting I've read in a long while, so it's probably a mistake. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But all I'm saying is it's easy for people who agrees with everything Bush to say she's a radical and she's using her son's death for her own selfish purposes when most of us couldn't imagine her pain.
