As opposed to well dressed trash....

A new front has opened in the war over the war: zoning regulations.
Last week, the conservative grassroots organization FreeRepublic.com held its second protest outside the Northeast Washington house that serves as a base of operations for the anti-war group Code Pink. Along with other groups, FreeRepublic.com alleges that Code Pink has set up a “corporate lobbying office” in a residential neighborhood.
According to a Free Republic release, neighbors have “complained of Code Pink-affiliated buses being parked on their street, increased traffic, loud gatherings, unkempt trash and strangers going in and out of the house at all hours of the night,” because it’s running a “boarding house/hotel for transients” and a “kitchen in the house where the transients are charged daily fees for meals.”
Before Wednesday’s protest, a message on Code Pink’s Yahoo message board warned not to “engage” the “Freepers,” or do it “respectfully, peacefully and non-violently.”
Free Republic’s Kristinn Taylor (he’s a man) said one of the “Pinkos” did videotape protestors and they drew one “bogus” police call, whereas they got three at their first protest.
“The Pinkos took turns sitting watch over us in the front yard while the rest of them partook of the potluck dinner they host every Wednesday night,” he said.
“There were no incidents as we behaved ourselves as usual,” he added. “Some of the neighbors want Code Pink to go, others either don’t care or like them being there. On the other hand, some of the neighbors told us they don’t like us being there. Regardless, we’ll continue to hold demonstrations there.”
As opposed to well dressed trash....
So it's come to this, huh?
Yeah....”he said” would have sufficed.

One possibly interesting side note here is how these authors use the word “Freeper” without even defining it, in the headline no less! It seems Jim’s creation, and the denizens thereof, have simply become a part of the journalistic lexicon. Congratulations!
How's that for validation?
PING - FReepers in the news again!!
YooHoo!!
Report it as a “crack-house”, and call the DEA hotline. They will serve a “no knock” on the residence.
great job “A MAN”

I love it. Attacking the enemy at their base of operations!
WTG!
Keep us informed on the zoning issue.
