    An ordinance that "bans conduct that disturbs or alarms people"?

    Oh My.

    If the kids were playing in a tree, they were just asking to be called monkeys.

    I know their eye is on the sparrow and all but this seems like petty bullshit for the Obama campaign to get involved with. Has mcCain vetted every remark every one of his delegates has made to their neighbors? I sense a certain amount of gun-shyness afflicting the D frontunner.

    She sounds like a busybody -- racist or not. If you saw your neighbors kid playing in a tree that's not in your yard, would you tell them to stop?
