Stephen Pearcy (activist)
Stephen Pearcy (born March 4, 1960) is a probate, estate planning, income tax and business transactions attorney in Sacramento, California. In 1999 and 2000, during the dot-com bubble, Pearcy was a corporate attorney at Gray Cary Ware & Freidenrich LLP (now DLA Piper) in Palo Alto, and focused on venture capital financing and public offering transactions.〔〔(LinkedIn: Stephen Pearcy )〕 Not previously known for being politically outspoken, Pearcy made national news in February 2005 after displaying a stuffed American soldier's uniform hung with a noose on his home with the words, “Your Tax Dollars at Work.”〔(cbs5.com - Video Library )〕〔(War Protest Has Captive Audience )〕 After someone tore down that display, he replaced it with a similar display with the words, “Bush Lied, I Died.” That display was also torn down. Both vandalisms occurred while TV news crews were present and were captured on film, but the Sacramento District Attorney’s office declined to prosecute the vandals.〔〔(Case of Interest: Marty Way Effigy )〕 Pearcy eventually won a $5,000 judgment against one of the vandals, and he received and out-of-court settlement for $3,500 from another.〔〔((DV) Bacher: Right Wing Hate Vandals Come to Justice in Sacramento! )〕
In August 2005, Pearcy made national news again when he exhibited a painting at the California Department of Justice in Sacramento showing a star-spangled map of the United States being flushed down a toilet. The painting included the words, "T'anks to Mr. Bush!" The art exhibit was controversial and generated a protest and counterprotest event that once again included supporters of the exhibition facing off with opponents of the exhibition.〔(FOXNews.com - Flag-in-Toilet 'Art' on Display in California Justice Department - Politics | Republican Party | Democratic Party | Political Spectrum )〕〔(SACRAMENTO / Painting of U.S. in toilet raises GOP hackles / Attorney general asked to remove work in state-owned building )〕〔(Controversial Artwork Sparks Opposing Rallies - Sacramento News Story - KCRA Sacramento )〕
Pearcy remained politically active until around 2007, just before Barack Obama was elected. He has written articles for the San Francisco Daily Journal, ''CounterPunch'', the Smirking Chimp, the ''Sacramento News & Review'' and Dissident Voice.〔(Stephen S.
