Authorities Getting Ready to Throw Anti War Protestors From Bush Ranch for Tresspassing
The Matrix ^ | August 9, 2005

Posted on 08/10/2005 8:27:22 AM PDT by gopwinsin04

Law enforcement authorities are taking steps to remove a group of about 50 peace activists camped near President George W. Bush's Crawford, Texas ranch.

Hadi Jawad, spokseman for the Crawford Peace House helping Cindy Sheehan and supports with food and water during their protest, said today that is was a 'changing and fluid situation right now' with authorities keeping a close eye on the group and warning them about possible tresspassing violations.

Sheehan and her group of protestors are camped out near the Presidents ranch about 2 miles from Crawford on the side of Prarie Chapel Hill.

'A woman who owns property across the road from where the group is camping began putting up no trespassing signs with law enforcement offficals nearby,' said Jawad.

Jawad said Sheehan tried to get as close as possible, choosing Prarie Road because President Bush is due to pass by the protestors Thursday on his way to a local fundraiser.

As a result of no tresspassing signs being put up around the protestors, Sheehan and others are seeking legal counsel with the assistance of the ACLU in order to make sure that their free speech rights are protected.

Uh, if the lady OWNS the property where the peace activists are camping (read "squatting"), I think her private-property rights to keep the riff-raff out trump their First Amendment rights to harass the president. But of course to a peace activist, it's all about THEM and THEIR rights. The rights of others are irrelevant.

Their free speech rights are protected as long as they are on public land with a (sadly) permit.

They are on private land and that land owner has posted they are not not welcome or allowed.

Actually, I think this article is meant as an "invitation" to the MSM to be there and get video of this "poor grieving mother, being threatened"...blah,blah,blah..

They have been advertising all week that she MIGHT be arrested on Thursday...they are actually WANTING her to get arrested...

Therefore, if I were Bush, I would leave her alone, to breath the exhaust fumes as I drive by and wave!!!

Hadi Jawad, HUH??

I think some western diamond-backs would be better than fire ants.

So it's a local property owner and not the President's security team, huh??

Gee .. the MSM FAILS to mention that part

OMG DUers are saying exactly that - Here's a quote from one of them: "She's sick because Bush keeps her out in that extreme TX weather! Real down home hospitality at the home place - NOT."

Can you believe that? These people need a straight jacket!
