the tea party will never have leadership. there may be people who want to steer the movement, but we tea partiers understand they are not with us. the tea party is a grassroots movement. if it has leadership it loses its soul. michelle bachmann doesnt represent us, she controls people who think they are tea partiers.  i would suggest to you the occupy movement is not crazy and the tea party racist isnt full of racist hillbillies

@7even78 1. I do not watch fox news as my main news source 2. You are correct, I don't agree with the OWS message at all. 3. Swing and a miss. If the Tea Party was acting this out of control, I would call them out just as I have been doing with the occupy movement. 4. I believe very much in the Constitution our country was founded on, and I'm not sure we would be a free country today if not for it and the Bill of Rights it contains. 5. Previous answer should disprove this. 1/5.

@watchfulstorm

no, lets be realistic. im going to call you out on your bullshit. admit it, you watch fox news for your main source of information. admit it, you dont agree with ows message. admit it, if it WAS the tea party, you would be up in arms right now. admit it, you dont defend the constitution when it doesnt jive with your political outlook. admit it, your problem is that you are not a constitutionalist. just admit it!

[watchfulstorm]

@7even78 No, it's still vandalism if you destroy public property, and to suggest anything otherwise is juvenile. For a third time now, it's not the protesting that's the problem, it's that the movement has turned into an excuse for illegal squatting.

@watchfulstorm

like i said, the people acting badly should be arrested. the people who are peaceful should not be arrested. also, if its public property, the people pay for that. it is technically the peoples property so we have the right to protest as long as we want.  thanks for the link

@7even78 /watch?v=sFaviIoy4rg

This shows more destruction of property, and the projectiles can be seen thrown by the protesters. Again, there is a difference between gathering for a protest, and permanently squatting on land that you don't own. Just as people can't show up and pitch tents in your yard, they can't show up and pitch tents in public city parks. Legally, everyone in those camps can be arrested.

@watchfulstorm

i didnt see anyone throwing anything in this video. if there are a couple people destroying property, they deserve to be arrested. the cops have no rights to take away people who are peaceful. secondly, nowhere in the constitution does it state that how long we are allowed to protest

[watchfulstorm]

@7even78 It does allow for peaceful assembly, however there are problems with both parts of that. The first being that, no, they were not being peaceful. It's not as easy to see from this angle, but protesters began throwing rocks and other projectiles at officers before they dispersed the crowd. In fact, the same video also shows protesters doing deliberate property damage. The second is that assembling is different from camping out for months on property you don't own.

@watchfulstorm

does the constitution not allow for people to peacefully assemble? were the people in this video not being peaceful? i think you better reevaluate your position

[watchfulstorm]

@7even78 ??? When did the riot squad need to be brought out during the tea party movement? When did the tea party movement cause millions of dollars in damage to public and private property? when did the tea party throw rocks at officers while yelling "fuck the police"? This movement is nothing like the tea party movement. It should be stopped immediately.

When assembly is against THE LAW what will you do ?

move along now. . .
