Yes, each case is different. This reporter engaged in espionage. I say line em up against a wall and just shoot them all. except the Fox guys...they're cool. Good thing the War on Terror has been expanded to include not only New hampshire, but the press as well. Bout time. ==== Reporter Arrested on Orders of Giuliani Press Secretary Charged with Criminal Trespass Despite Protest of CNN Staff and Official Event Press Credentials at GOP Debate in New Hampshire Aaron Dykes & Alex Jones / Jones Report \| June 5, 2007 Manchester, NH - Freelance reporter Matt Lepacek, reporting for Infowars.com, was arrested for asking a question to one of Giuliani's staff members in a press conference. The press secretary identified the New York based reporter as having previously asked Giuliani about his prior knowledge of WTC building collapses and ordered New Hampshire state police to arrest him. Jason Bermas, reporting for Infowars and America: Freedom to Fascism, confirmed Lepacek had official CNN press credentials for the Republican debate. However, his camera was seized by staff members who shut off the camera, according to Luke Rudkowski, also a freelance Infowars reporter on the scene. He said police physically assaulted both reporters after Rudkowski objected that they were official members of the press and that nothing illegal had taken place. Police reportedly damaged the Infowars-owned camera in the process. NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE POLICE TELEPHONE NUMBERS: You may use one of the numbers below to contact the NH State Police to politely comment about their treatment of a journalist and their eagerness to squash the First Amendment Director’s Office: (603) 271-2450 Field Operations Bureau: (603) 271-3793 Major Crime Unit: (603) 271-2663 Narcotics and Investigations Unit: (603) 271-6610 Terrorism Intelligence Unit: (603) 271-0300 Communications Maintenance Unit: (603) 271-2421 Reporters were questioning Giuliani staff members on a variety of issues, including his apparent ignorance of the 9/11 Commission Report, according to Bermas. The staff members accused the reporters of Ron Paul partisanship, which press denied. It was at this point that Lepacek, who was streaming a live report, asked a staff member about Giuliani's statement to Peter Jennings that he was told beforehand that the WTC buildings would collapse. Giuliani's press secretary then called over New Hampshire state police, fingering Lepacek. Though CNN staff members tried to persuade police not to arrest the accredited reporter-- in violation of the First Amendment, Lepacek was taken to jail. The police station told JonesReport.com that Lepacek is being charged with felony criminal trespass. Lepacek did receive one phone call in jail which he used to contact reporter Luke Rudkowski. According to Rudkowski, Lepacek was scared because he had been told he may be transferred to a secret detention facility because state police were also considering charges of espionage against him-- due to a webcam Lepacek was using to broadcast live at the event. State police considered it to be a hidden camera, which led to discussion of "espionage." infowars.com

KT, Will all due respect, Ted Kennedy is an embarrassment to his family, the senate, the United States, and is pretty much an idiot. I think DUI is a very serious issue. I'm just not nearly as worried about Paris as I am about all the other criminals running loose because of an overcroweded jail system. There has to be some consistency in the sentencing and a pecking order of crimes to determine who is in jail and who is not when there isn't enough space for them all. I'm pretty sure most of Washington is a lot more dangerous than a rich girl with a driver.

From your girlfriend Ann Coulter: "And as long as we're adopting an open borders policy for immigration, how about opening the borders for emigration? As it stands, anyone can come in and start plotting terrorist attacks or collecting government services right away. But the rest of us can never escape having to pay for it. You can leave the country, you can renounce your citizenship —but you still owe taxes for 10 years. The government does not allow us to stop supporting welfare recipients in America, millions more of whom it plans to import under Bush's bill. That's not a free market — it's a roach motel." She has a point. If you disagree with government policy enough to renounce your citizenship, pack you bags, and leave, you shouldn't have to pay for the policies you are leaving for another 10 years.
