More Than 190 Arrested at Iraq Protest
The arrests came after protesters lay down on the Capitol lawn in what they called a ``die in'' - with signs on top of their bodies to represent soldiers killed in Iraq. When police took no action, some of the protesters started climbing over a barricade at the foot of the Capitol steps.
Many were arrested without a struggle after they jumped over the waist-high barrier. But some grew angry as police with shields and riot gear attempted to push them back. At least two people were showered with chemical spray. Protesters responded by throwing signs and chanting: ``Shame on you.''
