    The health inspectors are poking around in every tent, backed up by the sheriff and a deputy. They are surrounded by clicking cameras.

    The police have brought in a health inspector. Maybe they think campers are pooping on private property. Not happening. Everyone goes to the Peace House.

1. DO THEY HAVE A WARRANT????
This is outrageous...

Where's the lawyers... someone needs to put a stop to this.

11. I think a warrant is for when you are searching private property.
The fact that they are on the public right of way probably allows them to search.

The Patriot Act probably allows them to search without a warrant too.


Bush is such a WEASEL.

2. The Sheriff
I'm pretty sure Cindy has said more than once that the Sheriff has been very supportive. I wonder what this is about.

3. Someone get video of this.
Still shots and video footage of harrassment against the mother of a fallen American soldier would go a loooooooooooooooooooong way to show just how brutal *'s minions are.

I am destroyed. Cindy and the other families of the fallen just had their press conference. By the end, all were weeping. All denounced the war, Bush, and demanded the troops be brought home. It ended with these families just holding each other, surrounded by flowers and cameras, to the side of the Arlington West cemetery that has been erected here.

We will get our footage of this up as soon as we can.

9. Pitt says they're surrounded by clicking cameras. Where is CNN, MSNBC?
Not a word so far. CNN World News Today just starting.

15. Yeah, where is CNN?
Ms. Malvo (sp?) reported from WH that they were expecting to hear from Cindy within half hour and from Boosh within the hour. That was about 10:30 CDT, I think. Bet Karl called up CNN and told 'em "that ain't the way things are supposed to be done, putting on some unpatriotic woman before you have the great Bush on", and CNN said, "Yes, sir, Boss. Some staff lackey made a bad mistake, and we promise it won't happen again."

14. Health inspection? A health inspector could fine their own office
with some obscure ordinance

What petty shit they are pulling

16. Looking for "hidden illegal drugs."
Drug sniffing dogs, coke-snorting good ol' boys. What a combination.

:grr:

18. Standard, low-level harrassment
Anything the Chimperor's minions can think of to do, they'll do it. Health inspections, traffic enforcement folks, whatever. It wouldn't surprise me in the least to hear that someone from the Texas child welfare agency is slated to go there next, just to make sure that there's no child abuse going on or something.

The problem for the public servants is that there are far too many witnesses, witnesses with cameras, video recorders and other devices, who will spot any "throw downs" or anything else untoward going on.

Nothing will come of any of this "official" harrassment.

Good luck to Cindy and her companions.

21. No problem and should be exspected-they will look at every possibility
to break-up disrupt-discourage Cindy and her supporters - this only proves that they're having a hard time legally breaking up Cindy and her cause - move on is what they wish for. NO BIGGIE, just like Matin Luther King said; "peaceful demonstrations/protests"

Cindy Sheehan - countless millions hear and support what you're doing!
