Anti-Drone Protesters Convicted of Trespassing 
-----------------------------------------------


 
Two antiwar protesters have been found guilty of trespassing for
entering a Missouri Air Force base with a letter describing their
opposition to the U.S. drone program. The defendants, Ron Faust and
Brian Terrell, were among a number of activists who took part in a
demonstration at the Whiteman Air Force Base last April. The base is one
of several homes of the U.S. military’s aerial drone program overseas.
