Anti-war protesters arrested near White House

2011-03-20

That didn't take long...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- More than 100 ~~rubes~~ ~~tools~~ ~~fools~~ ~~simpletons~~ ~~rustics~~ ~~idiots~~ ~~morons~~ anti-war protesters, including the man who leaked the Pentagon Papers,

"Pay attention to meeeeeee, I'm historically important!"

were arrested outside the White House on Saturday in demonstrations marking the eighth anniversary of the U.S.-led war in Iraq.

The protesters, some shouting anti-war slogans and singing "We Shall Not Be Moved," were arrested after ignoring orders to move away from the gates of the White House.

In New York City, about 80 protesters gathered near the U.S. military recruiting center in Times Square, chanting "No to war" and carrying banners that read, "I am not paying for war" and "Butter not guns."

Similar protests marking the start of the Iraq war were also planned Saturday in Chicago, San Francisco and other cities.
