1. walking and what they are doing. And you could be walking the <br />2 same way throughout the whole neighborhood, two abreast or back <br />and forth or whatever. <br />4 It seems to me that if you are focusing on the fact <br />5 that it is in front of one house, that it must have something <br />to do with matters other than safety. <br />7 QUESTION: Well, your record certainly contains <br />instances of interference, does it not? <br />MR. FUHRMAN: Well, the record contains instances of <br />10 interference, which of course goes beyond picketing, such as <br />11 obstructing the driveway and trespassing upon property. Now as <br />12 has been pointed out by the Appellees, there are ordinances <br />13 addressed to those particular problems. The point that we are <br />14 discussing today really is the picketing ordinance itself. <br />15 QUESTION: Mr. Fuhrman, would the town prohibit <br />16 Appellees from standing in the street in front of the house and <br />17 handing out leaflets containing the same messages as on the <br />18 signs? <br />19 MR. FUHRMAN: No. It is our understanding that <br />20 leafleting is not covered by this ordinance. Now I could <br />21 conceive of a situation where a picketer might have leaflets <br />22 and do two different things. But leafleting is not picketing. <br />23 QUESTION: But what is a picket, does a picket have <br />24 to have a sign? <br />25 MR. FUHRMAN: He does not have to have a sign. <br />13 <br />Heritage Reporting Corporation <br />(202) 628-4888 <br />
