Driver Crushes Crosses At Anti-War Protest Site

Some are watching the Crawford protest, some aren't, but for some reason, I found this compelling.

From our television friends in Waco, Tx.

Driver Crushes Crosses At Anti-War Protest Site

Larry Northern, 59, of McLennan County, was charged Tuesday with Criminal Mischief Over $1,500 and under $20,000 after a pickup truck tore through a row of white crosses erected by anti-war protesters gathered near the President’s ranch in Crawford.

Bail was set at $3,000.

The crosses bear the names of U.S. military personnel who have died in the war in Iraq.

Witnesses said the driver swerved the truck in and out of the makeshift memorial Monday night.

The protesters who are camped out in Crawford expressed outrage at the vandalism.
And here's their video link of the knocked down crosses.

Can't get blogger to take the link easily, so just click on the story and the video is there.
