Thread: Lone Protester--My Court Date

I have finally gotten my subpoena for my jury trial for cursing. I am to appear, at 800am, in courtroom #2 at 811 Washington St., Columbia, SC on Oct 19th 2007. My case will be called sometime that day and jury selection will start. I know that my trial is going to be about whether I said a curse word or not, but it is not. It is really about the nine hundred pound gorilla that everybody who will be trying me for cursing, is completely blind to. And that is the fact that I protested being run out of business by illegal competition, my rights were violated and I got arrested for it. That’s what it is all about.
I am encouraging everybody that reads this, to please be there that day to help me to send a message to my state, a message that says we are sick and tired of our laws not being enforced. That we are not going to take it anymore. I want support from as many people as possible, to make that statement as strong as I can. I would like to see the sidewalks overflowing with people. I know that a photographer and reporter from our local newspaper will be there to do an article about my case.
And I am not going to give up, I am involved with the March for America in Atlanta on Nov 17th and am starting to plan a march in Columbia on May 1st 2008. And in the meantime I am going to be exposing as many companies as I can that are using illegal competition. So, I am encouraging everybody to be there on Oct 19th, bring your flags, your t-shirts that say “ENFORCE OUR LAWS!, just support me as much as you can, especially on that day. Lone Protester

loneprotester,

I must have missed it. Would you mind telling me what exactly happened and why it is going to court?

Cayla, LP has several threads here about his situation which go into way more detail. But, basically what happened was he was protesting being drummed out of business by illegal workers, and was arrested for simply excercising his right to do so as an American citizen.



Good luck LP............I cannot be there in person, but you will certainly be in our thoughts for a happy outcome on that day.
