11. "The "Pig"???!!!???
Jesus help us!

The war is the crime, the pie in the face is a political statement.

Yeah, technically an assault. But no intent to harm anyone. The intent is to embarrass and shame Levin I imagine.

Frankly I think DUers should rally to support her, perhaps not in her tactics but in the blatantly inhumane and I would argue criminally unjust bond.

So, Judy, you advocate suicide as protest? Imagine that! Isn't that a bit overdone these days? Don't the powers that be WANT us to kill ourselves over the oppression and wars and despondency. Suicide is NOT a peaceful protest it is violent and horrific. And others can be seriously hurt and even killed.

I think we ought to set up a fund here at DU top help bail her out.

Not because what she did was right but because the wars are wrong and the retribution against her for her protest is waaaay wrong.

Just sayin'.

And Levin out not to press charges. It makes him look like a wimp and a vengeful tool of the warmongers.


I like Levin most of the time, but he needs to have more backbone than this. It sounds personal. And she is way at a disadvantage and used a pretty peaceful means to make her statement. (Or would you have preferred she blew herself up or self-immolated?)
