I'll stick to the OP here.
An excerpt from the article...
Quote:
Afterward, participants marched with battery-operated faux candles through snow and wind toward the White House, where police began arresting protesters shortly before midnight. Protest guidelines require demonstrators to continue moving while on the White House sidewalk.
"We gave them three warnings, and they broke the guidelines," said Lt. Scott Fear. "There's an area on the White House sidewalk where you have to keep moving."

Looks to me like they broke the law after they were given more than ample warnings. In fact, I do not think they even need to be given warnings, so that was very nice of the officers.
So, wooyarn, how is this Bush's fault? Your comment of Bush loosing his Christian base, leads me to believe that you think Bush had them arrested or had something to do with this. When in fact, this is a law that was put in place LONG before Bush became president, no?
