Anti-War Posters Draw Threat of Fine
posted 12:28 pm Wed August 15, 2007 - WASHINGTON
One of the Department of Public Works' biggest targets is The ANSWER Coalition.
ANSWER spokeswoman Sarah Sloan said they received 64 citations on Monday, each with a $150 ticket attached. Sloan said she knows more are on the way. The group has 72 hours to take down the signs or pay nearly $10,000 in fines.
The group believes D.C. is trying to curry favor with the Bush Administration since many of the signs promote an upcoming anti-war march.

This is as blantant and as stupid an action against ANSWER.org as I can think of. It equals some of the stupidity that preceeded the disaster at Kent State years ago. I was there I can see where the growing anger in this country is leading. Fenty and his administration have just lost all my respect. The only good thing I can see is the free publicity that the idiots has engendered.
