Greenpeace activists sentenced to community service


Eleven Greenpeace activists pleaded guilty to climbing Mount Rushmore to hang an anti-global warming banner last July.

Their sentences ranged from community service to 10 days in jail, which was suspended. One member had to serve two days in jail.

Maybe the judge agreed with the protesters.
