re: #537 debutaunt

I appreciate the work you have done showing the huge downside to the tea parties. I have the sense that people here are looking for a venue to vent their frustration against whatever they dislike politically.

Sorry. But the tea party I attended had nothing of which you speak. It was nothing but everyday people voicing their conservative values against a government that will not represent them. I didn’t see nor hear screaming of any kind from any, as you say, “extremist factions”. And, by the way, it is our right and duty to protest what many see as a corrupt and out-of-control government.
