Breaking and entering…isn’t the Marine Recruiting Center considered Federal property?
Wouldn’t this be a Federal Case? If so…
On Monday police arrested four Code Pink protesters during a rally to mark the 4,000th U.S. troop death in Iraq. Dressed in clothing that appeared to have blood on it, the protesters went into the Marine center, sat down and refused to leave, police said.
They tried to open the blinds inside and were arrested on a charge of trespassing on private property after being warned by a police officer, police Lt. Andrew Greenwood said.
“We’ve had enough of this senseless trail of blood and suffering,” CodePink founder Medea Benjamin said in a statement. “We’ll mark this grim milestone by shutting down the recruiting station that symbolizes more death and destruction.”
Those arrested were Benjamin, 55, of San Francisco; Suzanne Joi, 57, of Berkeley; Pamela Bennett, 45, of San Francisco; and Mari T. Blome, 52, of El Cerrito. All were in custody and not available for comment late Monday.
