Not sure how desecrating memorials to those KIA (no matter how manipulative and tendentious the message of the memorial was) helps. All it does is give the protestors something else to wail self-righteously about.

Who owns the property this "memorial" is on? Could this be an ILLEGAL construction of STATE/COUNTY property?

Maybe, but I can see how they are sick of it. If someone setup 2-3 PortaPoties in front of your home and camped out for weeks, became a media circus on a road that may usually only get 10 cars a day, you would probably snap too. |

I really enjoy how they had to throw in there gun enthusiast etc.. etc.. I'm sure it was the build up of years of gsr and clp in his grey matter that drove him to do what he did. I mean seriously WTF does being a gun enthusiast have to do with any damn thing they were reporting? I think he run over the wrong thing though, he should have run her over. I honestly wonder if her son would appriciate what she's doing.

Bingo. At this point I'd expect the town is just about ready to string up reporters in mass lynchings. Oh, and from the pics, it's closer to 30 portapotties.

Yeah, I agree, this wasn't a actual memorial. I also hate to be the one to say this, but I believe this to be a dupe. I saw a different thread about this a few minutes ago.

How can driving through trash on a roadside possibly be construed as "destruction of private property"?
Can I put an offensive, cheap, trashy, protest display up on public right of ways, and file charges at anyone who touches it? +1 on those who said this wasn't a memorial. A REAL memorial would be tasefully done by people who HONOR the dead. |

She has a place to camp now, wonder how long till he gets tired of her $hit...........
Bush Neighbor Allows War Protesters to Camp on His Land By Angela K. Brown Associated Press Writer Aug 16, 2005 ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGBAP0B1HCE.html CRAWFORD, Texas (AP) - One of President Bush's neighbors will allow use of his land by dozens of war protesters who have camped in roadside ditches the past 11 days, giving them more room and halving their distance from Bush's ranch. Fred Mattlage, an Army veteran, said he sympathizes with the demonstrators whose makeshift camp off the winding, two-lane road leading to Bush's ranch has angered most residents. Mattlage said the group will be safer on his corner 1-acre lot. "I just think people should have a right to protest without being harassed," Mattlage told The Associated Press on Tuesday night. "And I'm against the war. I don't think it's a war we need to be in." Cindy Sheehan of Vacaville, Calif., started the vigil Aug. 6 to honor her son Casey, who was killed in Iraq last year. Sheehan has vowed to remain through Bush's monthlong ranch visit unless he meets with her and other grieving families. Mattlage's Monday night offer, accepted by protesters Tuesday, will put them about a mile from Bush's ranch, said Hadi Jawad of the Crawford Peace House, which is helping the group. Demonstrators said they would start moving their tents, anti-war banners and portable toilets to the new site Wednesday and hope to have the new camp set up in time for a dusk candlelight vigil. The vigil will be one of about 1,000 to be held across the country, an effort organized by liberal advocacy groups MoveOn.org Political Action, TrueMajority and Democracy for America. Larry Mattlage, a distant cousin of Mattlage's who owns nearby land, fired a shotgun twice into the air Sunday but no one was injured. But Fred Mattlage does not share his cousin's frustrations with the group. For more than a week, the rural area has been a traffic nightmare as the camp attracted hundreds more protesters as well as Bush supporters holding counter-rallies. A resident was arrested Monday night after authorities say he ran over hundreds of small wooden crosses bearing names of fallen U.S. soldiers. Tuesday morning, several landowners asked county commissioners to extend for at least two miles the public "no parking" zone around Bush's ranch. The ordinance now prohibits cars from stopping on the road within about a quarter of a mile. Bush, who said he sympathizes with Sheehan, has made no indication that he will meet with her. Sheehan and other families met with Bush two months after her son's death before she became a vocal opponent of the war. |

I don't know about Texas, but in Missouri even if there is an easement on your property that runs along a road, you still own the property, not the county. I own some property in Missouri that has the property line running down the center of a county road, it's my legal property, but I can't do what I want with it.

It's about damn time! Those crosses aren't a "memorial" to fallen soldiers! The families weren't even consulted, the presentation and context do not support the troops, the display was against the war effort. I'm glad he mowed 'em down.

My parents live not too far from there. From what I understand the locals are calling her "The Bitch in a Ditch." As for the asshat local letting them stay on his 1 acre, that's got to be crowded. Porta patties, tents, ganja stash, smelly hippies, and Dr Haji Wad on one acre?
