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.

LOL, this is a very mild, albeit drawn out flame discussion, not even worthy of being called a war.

Want flame wars, the "Housing bubble/sky is falling" threads are good for that.

Jeez, fighting on a Cindy Sheehan thread. That's kinda like riding a moped, it may be fun but you sure wouldn't want your friends to see you. :)

[Fierce Allegiance]

I'm not fighting, I'm observing and commenting based on those observations.

How's this?

BTW< mopeds are a lot of fun, and so are the other item in the original joke.

Yep.

I tried to be tell him, but noooooooooo.

He jumped in all by himself, maybe he can get out by himself.

[Judith Anne]

Thanks for the link. She's got some serious problems, I think she's going to end up martyring herself in some county jail.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Oh, FA's a big boy. I'm sure he can take care of himself.


Me, I'm a lover not a fighter. :)

[Judith Anne]

I know. ;-D

[Fierce Allegiance]

How about I fix us a lemonade, and we just go sit on the porch and watch the sunset and comment on that?

Sentence this nutcase to living in Venzuela for the rest of her life.

[Judith Anne]

Looks delicious. Will you play nice?

[Fierce Allegiance]

Always do! :)

[Ditter]

This may have started out about her son...... but she has long ago lost sight of him. It's all about her now.


*Plain Jane makes it into the headlines!*

The only thing that you've been doing is to try to start up a flame war.

I hope you feel better soon.

Peace Mom Goes on Trial in Manhattan

Peace Mom......indeed. Posing with who next; Kim Jong Il?

There are a lot of misspelling and misuses of the language all over FR, these days. I suspect that some do it intentionally, because they think it's "cute", some do it because they are ill educated, others just miss the typo/s and/or forget to use the spell check.

I no longer live in N.Y. either, but I was born and bred there and still get back to the city occasionally. No place is monolithic and that's what some here either don't know, or refuse to admit.

Even the MOST liberal New Yorker ( Manhattanite ) can't stand the UN. The UN wants to expand; those living near it, are mad as a wet hen about where the UN is demanding to build....a children's playground! The UN scofflaws are another sticking point, as is the immunity that every foreigner and their family members have, vis-a-vis criminal activities. That's just for starters, but I hope that everyone has now learned a few FACTS, from my reply. :-)

LOL

[nopardons]

Do you think this is all an act?
