Poor Cindy Sheehan

TheAnalyst · Post by **TheAnalyst** » August 22nd, 2005, 11:14 am

Since there hasn't been much posting lately, I thought maybe this would get something started.

I do feel sorry for this woman that she lost her son. War is not a pretty thing. If you son or daughter signs up for the military, there is a chance he or she may die. It does not matter if you agree with the reason or not. I feel she is using her son's death as a political endeavor, which dishonors his service and his death. This is a big grandstand for her.

Read the following to see how nuts this woman is. She makes some good points, but her other ideas are wacko. She is going to hit the terrorists with a rolling pin if they come to her house???? America not worth dying for!! All of this at a rally for a lawyer convicted of helping terrorists.

Warning: Some harsh language

Stewart Rally

Another report from the Boston Globe. The only mainstream media outlet I could find with anything about this besides Fox, where I saw a videotape of this over the weekend.

She was arrested and taken away in cuffs today because she was guilty of over-milking her 15 minutes of fame in front of the White House. This stupid (female dog) needs to get a life.

She was making a big joke of the arrest ordeal. Just as she is making a big joke of her son's tragic death.

That's great. Doesn't the first amendment give people the right to peacably assemble and petition the government? I didn't think that their views mattered so long as they were doing it peacefully. When did this bull$h*t about a permit to hold a peace rally start? The first amendment doesn't say anything about the people having to get a permit for the right to peacably assemble and petition the government, or that the person's views have to agree with the government's in order to petition them (as much as GW might like to think that). The first amendment is unqualified, and Cindy's arrest (whether you like her or not) is a violation of the Constitution. Of course, that is nothing new....

blocking roads and destroying private property is peacable? id hate to see your definition of riotous.

The first amendment doesn't say anything about the people having to get a permit for the right to peacably assemble and petition the government

....as long as its on public property and not interfering with public or private life.

and Cindy's arrest (whether you like her or not) is a violation of the Constitution

so we should let a pyschotic woman set up camp outside the private home of the leader of the free world....thats smart thinking, flea, im sure youll go far with that idealogy

That's OK, if the Constitution doesn't agree with the Liberal view of ANYTHING, they will get the Supreme Court to re-write it, or write NEW law, just so it meets their idea of LAW. When cops tell you to disperse, and you don't, or if you haven't the proper permits, I don't care who it is or for what reason, my taxes go to enforce the laws. I'm glad they are doing their job.

Let's arrest everybody that gathers in public because they take up space and breath valuable public air!! Gee!

Gunner, yeah, she was marching outside the White House, which has been the home of nearly every leader of our country. But she was doing it in a public place. She wasn't trespassing. Yeah, they were blocking a sidewalk. So what? That's their biggest crime. They didn't resist arrest; they didn't fight with the cops; they didn't engage any destruction of public property. They sat down on a sidewalk, en masse. If that isn't a peaceful assembly, then I don't know what is. Should we arrest everybody at a KKK rally or an NRA rally because they are taking up valuable public space and blocking sidewalks? If not, then why should we do it to this woman?

Hey Pale, if Congress passes a law that bans all firearms, are you going to hand yours in because you're a law abiding citizen, or recognize that the government has (once again) trampled the Constitution and overstepped their boundaries? Should we make it a law that only people the government like can get a permit to possess guns, no matter whether they are law abiding or not, or have need of them or not? Or is that a breach on the constitution? Is it a breach in the constitution if you have to get a permit to talk about politics? I am anxious for your reply.

Flea- Just like when some cities have a program where if you turn in a firearm, for cash, do you think they get all AK47's and RPG's? Hell no, they get old, rusty crap I'd be afraid to fire. By the same token, if a law was passed and I had to surrender a "firearm", they would get my late father-in-law's old 20 ga. single shot w/ cracked stock. I'd have the good stuff in a safe, secure location. likely not even on the premises. Now, I don't quite get your tangential questioning regarding MY firearms, and the fact that Sheebitch defied the law regarding legal assembly in front of the White House. If there weren't previous attempts of violence and vandalism, mayhem in front of, and on White House premises, there would probably be no need for a permit or policing of the area against lawbreakers, but since there are LAWS against it, and she WILLFULLY broke them, she should be penalized. Should she spend the next 5 years in jail? Of course not, but a few hundred bucks fine, which Moveon.org or George Soros will pick up the tab for, and maybe a week or two in the slammer would do her some good. Who knows, maybe a Beulah or Ethel hardcore dyke will take a liking to her. It's not a Constitutional breach to talk about politics. Especially when you're wrong. If it were, they would have locked you and your kind away long ago. Just kidding. I believe Gunner said it best- Every time you open your mouth (post) you just prove how little you really know.

Right, so the Constitution isn't being breached when somebody requires a permit to assemble peaceably and petition the government, but it is when somebody needs a permit to speak about a certain subject? Both, by the way, are in the first amendment.
