UPDATED! Judge to Government: WTF!

As I noted yesterday, the thirteen GetEQUAL activists who chained themselves to the White House fence to protest "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" in November, were scheduled to face charges today that they violated the orders of a federal law enforcement officer, charges which carry a maximum six month jail sentence. The unprecedented severity of these charges made some speculate that the government was trying to make an example of the 13 activists.
