Anti-war activist trespass charges dropped. This is the same guy who wears a sign saying "What would Jesus Bomb".

So he didn't tresspass? Or the city decides not to fight such cases (as is often the case after the visible arrest)?

"I don’t know if they don’t trust the jury to convict someone of protesting against the war because the war is becoming increasingly unpopular, or what," Jacobs said. "Or maybe they don’t want to give me a platform to criticize the war."




Maybe they just didn't want to waste taxpayer dollars on a dumbass.

$500 fine and/or 30 days in jail? Be real.

So, what is your take on this?

I've been away from Columbia long enough now that I wonder if this is a "good" or "bad" thing. Can you clarify?

Obviously he is guilty of trespassing. Why are they dropping it?

I wonder what the recruiters are thinking about this, since security is a major concern for them.
