NEW YORK -- Peace activist Cindy Sheehan, who protested the Iraq war by camping outside President Bush's Texas ranch, went on trial with three other women Tuesday on charges of trespassing at the U.S. Mission to the United Nations.
The women tried to deliver an anti-war petition with 70,000-plus signatures to mission officials on March 6.

Thanks, it is ever so good to see the primary colors of people.
Gratuitous insults. Dogpiling.
Why?
There is no need for that, and as FReepers you should really know better.
This is a Cindy Sheehan/UN thread. Surely you can find something better to discuss than flaming a fellow FReeper from Missouri.
I'm from Missouri, and I like most FReepers--they're my kind of people. It's time to stop flaming other FReepers. Let it go.
"They did nothing wrong, absolutely nothing illegal." Note: The lawyers lips were moving when he spoke those words.
When does Sheehan go to trial for her third tax evasion rap?
My grandpa used to say "When you get yourself stuck in a hole, stop digging, boy." Seems to me jmt doesn't know when to stop digging.
The NYT doesn't represent the average NY'er much better than it represents the average American.
I don't know--I wasn't aware it was her THIRD.
A gracious, friendly response would have gone a lot farther than the "dim bulb," to convince jmt of the error...but I understand, you love your state, as I love mine.
But I love America and FR more...
It has nothing at all to do with my state, nore jmt's or anyone elses, it was purely about the posters postings on this thread.
In life, it's not what happens, but how we react that makes us who we are. jmt's reactions to criticism are very juvenile, and indicate a serious lack of formal education, as well as the ability to absorb said education.
You know, I could turn that around, and compliment you on how mature that picture and comment was, but *sigh* I think I'll just stay off FR for a while.
This thread is total bullshit on several people's parts, I did my best, nuts to all of you.
You ALL owe each other an apology. And some more mature conversation.
FR is better than this. Screw with it at your own peril.
Jumping in and prolonging it doesn't generally help.
Exactly. See post 62.
Now drop it.
That was an initial comment, not like your incessant droning on. Geez, you should sober up, too.
Listen, Richard, I attempted to reconcile a number of posters whom I have known for years and really like. You dogpiled. Now I have hit the abuse button. Best you find another thread to litter.
PS, I don't drink.
Well, I guess that time will tell, let's just wait and see what Crazy Cindy walks ouf of court with, that will tell the story about New Yorkers.
Sorry, Priscilla, you came in after me and gave me crap. THAT would be dogpiling. My original comment was to the posters lack of awareness as to what he/she was attempting to discuss. That is NOT dogpiling. If there is abuse here, it's on your part, and your thinly veiled attempt to slight me with your "richard" (another term for dick, right?) comment.
Have a nice day, and please don't post to me again. I've have my share of inanity for the day.
I'll post to whom I please. I came in long before you did on the thread, which you obviously did not read, or you would know that.
Dogpiling is a number of posters ganging up on one--which is exactly what happened, and which you obviously did not know.
Get a clue, and next time stay on the VS threads.
Hellacious flame war ping!
