You're going to have your idiot's at any event of this type. That said, no normal parent would knowingly take their child into a dangerous situation. |
This should be obvious. I'm not even sure why the video was posted in the first place. |
For the purpose of discrediting a movement. |
Well you were right. Not that it comes as any surprise.

How far right have we slid when a Harvard Law professor from Oklahoma is being portrayed as some sort of crazy lefty radical. |

Possible response by the Financial Quarters?
This might evolve into a political issue yet.

I'm pretty sure  BrennanOB has been shooting in Oakland...

Or if they do, could accidently vote for the wrong candidate. |

Only that's not what the Tea Party did...The Tea Party was assimilated by the GOP, pushing it further to the right, alienating moderates and widening the gap across the aisle. |

It'll be fun to see how that last part is policed... Half-asleep protestors being dragged to their feet by police and propped up against a tree. |
makes sense. this isn't a protest any longer, its a campout. |
I'd be willing to bet that taking away tents and generators will make it less of a campout and more of a protest. |

If you're a Stewart fan and love ironic humor you have to dig up those Tempest in a Tea Party clips he has on his site. Probably on Hulu as well. |
