Cindy Sheehan Watch: NYPD Pulls the PLUG

September 20, 2005 /

Cindy Sheehan speaking out in Union Square with Al Zappala, who also lost a son in Iraq.

The ASSociated Press has NYC Police Shut Down Cindy Sheehan Speech.

Police cut short a speech by anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan and arrested a rally organizer, saying he hadn’t obtained a permit for use of a loudspeaker.

Sheehan, the grieving mother whose 26-day vigil near
President Bush’s Texas ranch sparked anti-war protests around the country, had nearly finished her speech Monday when police intervened.

Supporters ushered her away from the rally at Manhattan’s Union Square park as onlookers yelled at police and chanted “Let her speak!”

And they said the Texas officers were bad?

Now watch out for the lawsuit New York.

Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan said Tuesday she was hurt slightly in a scuffle that erupted when police broke up a rally as she was at the microphone.

“I think their use of force was pretty excessive for someone that didn’t have a permit,” Sheehan said.

More of the Sheehan nonsense is reported here.

Has Sheehan met with Hillary yet?

    You know my first instinct is to say, it’s just a matter of time. But after a little more consideration, I don’t think it fits in with the metamorposis Hillary’s undergoing right now. By the Presidential election, she wants to have credentials as a conservative, which meeting Cindy Sheehan detracts from.
