Shep Smith says the "GFY Cheney" guy just got a citation
Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 08:36 PM by utopiansecretagent
for disturbing the peace or creating a nuisance or something trival.

He was on a bike when he rode by Cheney's press conference.

According to Shep (on Hann&Colmes), the guy WAS NOT ARRESTED.

22. That was my first thought when I saw "citation" in thread title.
I thought he was getting an award.

2. I'd happily pay for it
I'd like to know the name of the judge who, if under the circumstances of that area and its residents, would not dismiss this.

Seriously, I'd very happily pay for this man's right to express his *opinion*

3. He Shouldn't Have Gotten Anything
Oh....I forgot. That was when the Constitution actually stood for things like FREE SPEACH!

Creating a disturbance....what a crock!

9. I Don't Believe He Wasn't Vetted
I simply don't believe anyone not vetted got within 100 yards of Cheney. No way.

12. I am seriously surprised that he got by SS
Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 08:39 PM by utopiansecretagent
in the first place.

You'd think the SS would have had a perimeter sealed off and some guy just couldn't go riding right by without being stopped first.

Interesting, no?

This was not a crowded movie theatre and he was not yelling Fire.

21. I kicked in $400 to disaster relief at District Conference
How many "Go fuck yourself, Mr. Cheney" does that entitle me to? Even unemployed, I'd happily donate another $400 for a few public rantings captured on national television.

25. Gosh - I want to that too! I'll pay the fine just for the opportunity.
I'm not one to use that type of language. But anything to do with BushCo brings out the worst in me.

But seriously, I'm glad to hear nothing more serious happened to the guy. I was afraid he'd end up in jail.

26. That's bullshit. Free speech.
This regime thinks they can control everything. What happened? Did they run out of 'Loyalty Oath forms?" :grr:
