Security is befuddled when a contingent from the Veterans for Peace drop anti-war banners within and outside the Newseum in Washington DC, much to the delight of many museum visitors. The largest banner reads " "Mr. Obama: End These Fucking Wars! War is the Obscenity" Is this an act of criminal trespass, a violation of the obscenity laws or an exprssion of First Amendment Rights? What will the Newseum, dedicated to Press Freedom and Freedom of Expression, do? Shortly afterwards, President Barack Obama's motorcade, zooms past the Newseum as the demonstrators shout End the Wars. http://veteransforpeace.org/
