Here's hoping Howards gets a nice payday.  And hopefully out of the pockets of the pigs that falsely arrested him, not out of the federal budget.

All four articles confirm the same thing. He went up to the VP and said that
Quote
Your policies in Iraq are reprehensible
. Because of that he was arrested. He WAS acting different to most others around Cheney who were no doubt smiling away and shaking hands. He disagreed with Cheney on Iraq and said so. If he'd been abusive or threatening or simply wouldn't shut up I would see no problem with him being taken away. But he said a single sentence and walked away. As for being 'argumentative and combative' when the agent questioned him. Well wouldn't you be?

John9001's suggestion that you should only have constructive criticism and put it in writing. Well that's ridiculous. If you can't confront your elected representatives and tell them they are wrong to their face then something is wrong.

As it happens,  I think it was the work of an over zealous Secret Service agent who now quite rightly is facing a court case. But stuff like that sets dangerous precedents.

where in my post did i say he should have been arrested?  To para-phrase the constitution "you have the right to petition the govt".

For the slow witted i repeat, to walk by the VP and say "your policies suck" is not petitioning the govt.

John, I understand where you're coming from, but I disagree with your interpretation of the bill of rights and I believe case precedent on the subject supports my view.

No, but you should have the right to do it anyways without fear.  If you get up in his face all pyscho and screaming I could see a problem with security, but to walk up and face him and say his policies suck, and I can't wait for your administration to be out of office should be no problem.

Just because you got off the little yellow bus before you came here doesn't mean we did.

my gut instinct is to go with the secret service security detail on this one, sorry guys.

If there was a law broken Im sure some judge will bring justice to the universe and you all can go on with your lives unfettered by this travesty.

As far as media scrutiny I don't think it had anything at all to do with his release. It seems to be a pattern of catch and release that has been going on for some time.

Catch em get them out of sight and release them when everything is over.


I think if anyone shows they're a little "disturbed" they are, as you say, detained so they don't become a problem. Can't have the VP wrestling on the ground with guy!;)

Figure that out on your own? Or did you have to have a friend help?

Your going to complain after you did yourself?


BOOOOOOOOOOOo Hooooooooooooooooooooo

P.S. Not less then Average intelligence. I meant if you believe the nonsense you spew, you are probably mentally retarded.  Just making sure you fully understand this time chief.

It's a good thing that everyone here missed the point.  Completely.


Someone reported that they thought the guy touched the VP.  The secret service apprehended him on this suspicion, and the guy become belligerent and combative.
