Besides, a law ...We're not violent Marxists. <br /><br />Besides, a law banning tall signs would only be followed by tea party protesters, while commie infiltrators would violate the ban and just be asked to leave. They don't care as long as they smear the Tea Parties.Matt Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241445666161004335.post-45353513806970962442010-04-20T09:15:04.621-05:002010-04-20T09:15:04.621-05:00Hmmm, interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if...Hmmm, interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if the police are more lenient with Tea Party protesters than with radical lefties who are known to engage in violence, shout slurs and "fascist!" at the police who are just doing their job by providing security at protests, and generally have little regard for property--cars get turned over, windows broken, etc. while Tea Partiers pick up after themselves and would never dream of setting a fire in barrel or tossing a brick through a window.<br /><br />Honestly, I think this is going to cause problems for BO--law enforcement knows, even if DHS tells them otherwise, that we are law abiding, upstanding citizens, not foaming at the mouth radicals bent on blowing up buildings and causing mayhem. It's going to get very interesting around the country, that's for sure. But yeah, I'd be surprised if we saw police turn up at Tea Party protests in full riot gear as they must at leftie protests (G-20, most Code Pink stuff, anti-Bush rallies, etc.). If they do, it'll be because they are forced to by the feds, not because they actually perceive a threat from us.Fuzzy Slippershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13021615731454709413noreply@blogger.com
