A pro-violence anti-war protester at American University–a student who believes that peaceful civil disobedience is “dumb”–has received six months of probation and must perform community service for defacing government property. (He threw paint at a military recruitment center.) The kid is showing no remorse and says he’d do it again. His lawyer says that the student may satisfy his community service requirement by volunteering for an anti-war group. So apparently we’ll be seeing more paint attacks.

UPDATE: From a reader:

Someone should have thought to charge him with failing to properly recycle the glass bottle and surely he would have been suspended.
