(Washington, DC) Public Advocate president Eugene Delgaudio is wearing judicial robes and conducting an education campaign to notify the public and protesters to avoid federal Judge's homes and neighborhoods.
Delgaudio said: "Its not just stay off my lawn, its avoid the entire area where federal judges or officials live and having a vendetta or malicious intent to violate this law requires a special prosecutor and immediate investigation and arrests."
"Public
Advocate
volunteers
are
posting
signs
with
the
law,
handing
out
flyers
titled
"Violation
Ticket
Notices"
and
speaking
to
protesters
so
they
are
aware
of
the
law.
Some
protesters
publicly
and
willfully
obscenely
declare
they
will
disobey
the
law
to
punish
various
officials.
This
is
also
a
step
up
from
threatening
as
it
could
be
considered
worse
or
an
open
call
to
violence,
"
said
Delgaudio.
"Public Advocate has been to all the judges neighborhoods where protesters are assembled or visited to seek out protesters, notifying neighbors and posting public notice signs and social media posts to reach the public," said Delgaudio.
