Lambs of Christ NeoHippies? Police make arrests at University of Notre Dame

By GottaLaff

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Wasn't it the Rushpublics who protested our protests? Well now-- chortle, chuckle-- the protesting is on the other foot. And guess who's getting arrested?

Police Sgt. Bill Redman says 19 protesters were arrested Saturday on trespassing charges and four also faced a charge of resisting law enforcement.

What? Not honoring the officers who enforce the laws they say they cherish? Not respecting the men in uniform? Bucking authority? Why, I do believe these holier-than-thou rebels are turning into NeoHippies!

University spokesman Dennis Brown says none of those arrested were students.

Among those arrested was the Rev. Norman Weslin, founder of the Lambs of Christ abortion protest group. He also was among 21 people arrested during a similar protest Friday.

What next, tea tantrums?

By the way, just wondering: Were any of these arrestees confined to free speech zones?
