Orange Protestor Acquitted

NJ Libertarian Blog

Jeffrey Conway, a man who protested at an Orange town meeting, was found innocent of any charges that could have been brought against him. For months the town government has been going after him in court, and for what? He held up a sign the size of a regular sheet of paper in protest against Mims Hackett, the mayor of Orange. For holding up a sign and refusing to put it down he was hauled away to jail despite the fact that other people were also holding up signs and that he was just practicing his first amendment right.

There are certain things that words on paper can never make a crime, ... There are certain acts that by sheer common sense are not crimes ... just like it was never a crime to drink beer, even though words on paper said it was.
