Why not post a link to a historical protest when the Tea Party was protesting? Why not publish a post about the beauty and importance of protesting when the Tea Party was doing it? Why wait until a the Occupy crowds are occupying our news streams?<br /><br />And why ignore the fact that the Tea Party has conducted themselves honorably, without violence, without the need for others to clean up after themselves, without having the authorities be involved in policing their protests, without the rapes and sexual harassment being reported at the Occupy protests, without the arrests, without the threats of violence?<br /><br />It's a curious thing... so very curious...Rickhttp://www.brutallyhonest.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856067233993888742.post-13538737509333715832011-10-28T07:12:38.522-07:002011-10-28T07:12:38.522-07:00Besides, what I see to be defensible is their righ...Besides, what I see to be defensible is their right to assemble and their right to protest.

However, I will say they're protests are a great example of Americans collectively voicing their beliefs. <br />I think dismissing them because of a few misguided stragglers is a mistake. Putting people in a box is a rather simple (and intellectually lazy) way of dealing with them.Easmeilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01238994651221721984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856067233993888742.post-41439085757795323902011-10-28T04:45:14.804-07:002011-10-28T04:45:14.804-07:00Let me get this straight...
