While news cameras were filming the event, Marine Jeff Key physically grabbed a cameraman from San Francisco local affiliate KGO. Key objected to the cameraman’s shooting position, which was on the same site where the protesters have erected crosses listing the names of fallen soldiers in Iraq. Here's a photo from right before the altercation took place:
I asked Mark Matthews of KGO about the alleged assault, “I’m not happy about it. We’re happy to abide by the rules when we know what the rules are. But there was no message communicated to us to stay out of the crosses. And last night, photographers, supporters of Cindy Sheehan, people praying, clapping and singing were here amongst the crosses. 13 hours later, it’s off limits without any notification to us.”
I asked one of Sheehan’s spokeswoman if she condoned Key’s assault of the cameraman. She would not answer my question directly, instead saying, “I think if we all do our fair share, we’ll work to keep everybody out of the way … That’s all we need is to have people stay out of the crosses … I think that’s all being worked out privately. I think the cameraman and the Iraq veteran was doing his best to honor the fallen will work it out.”
Here's a pic of the spokeswoman who refused to answser my question:
Yup! I did a google search on him and that showed up. What a disgusting piece of garbage he is.
Thanks. Just turned it on.
You're darn right!!I have been asked to remove three crosses for families that lost their soldiers in Iraq when I arrive in Crawford.And look out Cindy,"ditch witches" the angelady is coming in,and my proud Marine is so proud of all of us don't you know!!!Cindy,you don't want to mess with me, I'm 5'11" and I'm still in very good shape, I'll kick your liberal butt, especially with knowledge,and common sense!!{Common sense isn't so common any more is it "ditch witches"?
Here's the deal.
Those "crosses" down in Crawford are being used as props by the mostly Marxist, God-less, neo-Communist crowd that has gathered there. End of story.
Does anyone really believe that any of those people actually believe in God? Let's keep it real, ok?
"He's the fag..."
Here I was, all geared up to ridicule the Sheehan clowns for yet another example of how laughable they are, and you totally caught my eye! You're that guy in the crowd with the chicken-hat on holding a sign reading, "God hates fags". I've been dying to meet you because, you see, I was hoping you could put in a good word with God for me since you two get along so well. *hint: please let God know I'm not a fag or he won't meet with me.*

Now what would ever give you that idea???
I guess no one should've been upset about Piss Christ, because using your standard that was just a pretend crucifix, anyway.
that is not a "grieving mother"
Statement of fact.
Yes, "He's the fag..."
Man that was revolting.....
It strikes my as how overcome with grief the poor woman is.
That contrived photo so reminds me of Clinton's moment on Normany beach when he just happened to find the rocks and made the cross. You immediately - IMMEDIATELY - knew it was a con job.
pardon my asking
do you have a bug up your ass?
dum question here. Can't they find out what names are on the crosses and file a cease and decease order against them?
