Greenpeace Activists Sentenced for Mt. Rushmore Action

Eleven Greenpeace activists were sentenced Monday for participating in a protest at Mount Rushmore. The activists were arrested in July after hanging a banner from Mount Rushmore that showed a photo of President Obama with the words America Honors Leaders, Not Politicians: Stop Global Warming." The banner was hung next to the carved mountain face of Abraham Lincoln. The eleven activists pleaded guilty to the charge of climbing Mount Rushmore. They were each fined $460 and ordered to perform between fifty and 100 hours of community service in the National Park system. One of the activists, Matt Leonard, was given a two-day jail sentence.
