Random Road Blocks Out of Control Gun Owners of America E-Mail/FAX Alert 8001 Forbes Place, Suite 102, Springfield, VA 22151 Phone: 703-321-8585 / FAX: 703-321-8408 http://www.gunowners.org July 27, 2001 Virginia freedom activist Abbey Newman was stopped for no reason at all on September 12, 2000. The Virginia state trooper who had her pull over admitted at the scene that he had no probable cause. But he arrested her and threw her in jail overnight because she refused to "show her papers" as she had every right to do. The trooper was considering arresting her for the patriot literature such as the U.S. Constitution that she had in her car (as heard on the video in his car). He was also very upset about the ammunition in her vehicle. He ended up arresting her for obstruction of justice (refusal to identify herself). She is scheduled for a hearing on Monday, July 30 sometime after 9:00 a.m. at the Franklin County Circuit Court on East Court Street in Rocky Mount. A continuance motion may result in the trial being set over to a later date, so please call 540-483-3065 to find out if the date has been changed. Gun owners have a lot to fear from this violation of the Fourth Amendment requirement to have probable cause. No-knock searches of houses -- and now random searches of cars -- mean that unconstitutional gun laws loom as a larger and larger threat to gun owners in the privacy of their cars and homes. Abbey Newman deserves the support of gun owners. In a very real way, her fight is our fight. If you can volunteer for educating those going into the Court about their rights as jurors, call 540-365-7737.

so, the [presumably] white, right-wing "patriot" gun owners are being arrested, eh? Well shit man - join the club. Leftist dissidents, radical minority leaders and labor activists, and revolutionaries of all stripes deemed a threat to the status-quo have been being arrested, marginalized, demonized in the mass media, harrassed, convicted of manufactured crimes, bombed, spied upon, assassinated, beatened, kidnapped, and black-listed since the 19th century (and on a much more massive level outside U.S. borders of course). Guess the beast is starting to turn on its master.

Headphone, I don't know about he beast turning on it's master thing. No one I know ever beat up or harrassed people like you describe.
In reply to:
The trooper was considering arresting her for the patriot literature such as the U.S. Constitution that she had in her car (as heard on the video in his car).
When I went to Washing D.C. a few years back I saw the real U.S. constitution and I took a picture of it too, it behind thick green glass. I think this is just insane to consider arresting someone for having a copy of the U.S. constitution, and this should alarm all freedom loving Americans everywhere. We'll see if the prosecutor gets a conviction on this one. That's one hell of a monkey of a case to try to make an American jury convict on. But we'll see.

Ted: "Hey kids, who does your mom look like in the morning?" Kids... in unison: "James Brown!" Darlene, "All right, thats enough... It's poison spaghetti for dinner tonight."
