July 17th, 2007 Hot Button Guest Editorial: Carol Trainer

You're not getting any sympathy from me, Carol Trainer. I support your right to protest but there's a time and place for every thing. If you had chosen to protest at the entrance to the belvedere, you would have likely encountered no problems or hostility. Instead, you decided to plant yourself in the center of the celebrations that everyone had paid for. You held your banners obstructing other people's vision and you chanted while the music was going on. You were asked nicely to stop but you refused.

Your 'end the war' sign got trashed. Boo-hoo. What you ought to be thankful for was that no one was selling tomatoes and other fresh fruits or you would have undoubtedly found yourself pelted and covered in fruit juice. What you did was way out of line and very inconsiderate of other's people's rights. The only reason you were arrested was due to your refusal to stop interfering with other people's enjoyment of the music festival.

You're not doing yourself or other war protesters any favors with your spoiled brat routine. It's behavior like what you showed during the Abbey Road on the River festival that causes people to quickly dismiss your ideas and label folks like yourself as part of the 'lunatic fringe'. That you even have the audacity to go on WAVE 3 and complain just goes to show how out of touch you are with reality. You got off rather easily considering that you ruined the weekend for many people by acting as an anti-social jerk. Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Some people seem to get tunnel vision when they have an agenda.


Bad things happen when good people do nothing

What happened to the part where she supposedly hit the officer in his chest? Confused Yet she got her charges dismissed? Hmmm.

I hadn't heard about that, M.J. I suspect that she put on some sort of hissy fit to get herself arrested. All that police were interested in was stopping her from disrupting people's enjoyment of the music. Roll Eyes
