Le Bois...the twilight zone...

Just more evidence that people in Idaho's beautiful capital city of Boise are out of their minds.

The trial started today for 11 people who were arrested for trying to block the removal of a Ten Commandments monument from a Boise city park in March:

You may have heard about it.

Well, they were cited with resisting and obstructing police which can carry a $300 fine and six months in jail.

They claim that they were practicing their right to free speech and the city's procedure for removal was unlawful. Unfortunately for them and radical neo-con ideologues everywhere, they committed an act of civil disobedience against a perfectly legal act.

Now I like a good act of civil disobedience as much as the next guy, but it is still illegal. And I don't really consider their cause worthy of civil disobedience...it's no Kent State in 1972.

Proud..ahem...to be a Boisean.
