Tea Partiers demand refund, say Occupiers weren't charged
A final note, picking up where we left off a while ago, on the finances behind the Occupy Wall Street movement.
In the capital city of Virginia, a Tea Party group is complaining that it was unfairly charged for its rallies at a plaza in Richmond, but now Occupy protesters have been allowed to use the same space, several weeks, for free. The Tea Partiers are demanding a refund of about $10,000 for the permits, portable toilets and emergency personnel they were required to pay for. Occupy Atlanta protesters are facing similar finger-pointing.
The Tea Party's platform is based on Liberty, Virtue, and Reason....the OWS Mob is about Anarchy and Destruction of a system they criticize and milk without conscience. Many are simply following the Pied Piper on both sides, but Occupiers for the most part are leeches being used by the enemy of all that is good in America and Lenin called these types- useful idiots! The moral decay is what is destroying America and it has always been this way...good vs. evil and the struggle will exist till the earth ceases to be. Communism is a political ideology that destroys property rights and individual rights-and it is responsible for more deaths than all the wars in the history of the earth! 20 million in Russia & 60 Million in China alone- they kill their own people and the OWS & Tea Party Sheeples( any who ignore these facts) will have their day in the killing fields as well if they do not wake up. HISTORY speaks volumes but no one cares about the truth...that will be the undoing of America. Greed, Power,misguided Passion without legal checks and balances will undo all the good of our once free society. The US Constitution was created for a moral and religious people and will be of no effect to any other!
The majority of the Tea Party movement is a complete joke.(look at the pro TP presidential candidates) It's amazing what corporate money can do when you continually fool people with said money. Why should you have to pay to exercise your right to assemble?
I don't whether the Tea Party is a joke. Perhaps. Like or dislike the Tea Party, at least it had an agenda. It had/has a semblance of purpose. If the Tea Party is a joke, the "occupy wallstreet" group is a laugh riot and a complete waste of everyone's time, particularly their own. I do agree with Occupy Your Mind that you shouldn't have to pay for your right to assemble, which is exactly why the Tea Party of Virginia is owed $10,000 for the permits that they were forced to purchase. I would highly advise any future Tea Party rally (and more are coming)to forget the permits and forget about cleaning up after themselves,just like the "occupiers".
I couldn't agree MORE with David. The "occupiers" are NOT true revolutionaries like our forefathers. They do NOT want to smash the system and replace it with another one because the new system will inevitably mean that they have to personally compete for things in this world and they don't want to do that. Inevitably, some, but not most of the occupiers will successfully compete. Those that are successful will be branded as traitors by those that are not. Make no mistake, this movement is purely about "stuff"; the very stuff created by the corporations these people are marching against.
Occupy "Name Your City" is a movement alright; a movement not unlike that which I saw this morning after my second cup of coffee.
