re: #242 Emerald

You really don’t see a problem with someone urging a crowd to burn books and being greeted with cheers? Do you have any understanding of history and movements that start off by burning books?

I can’t speak for anyone else, but I sure as hell don’t want to be associated ever remotely with a group that tolerates that type of fanaticism. It never ends well.

I have a problem with book burning. I am 100% against it. I just do not see evidence in that video that this random loon is representative of the larger tea party movement. If indeed this is representative of the larger movement, I would like to know so I can avoid tea parties in the future.
