No, I posted it as an example of the adopted ISO logo and imagery.

OK, I must have misunderstood.

Why is it that it upsets you so much that the OWS people use some of the tactics of the original Tea Party? Because it's not nice?

I understand that your goal is to turn this back to a discussion you can digest, so that you don't have to address what I am displaying above.  This is OWS:

. . .The symbols, the message, the organization, and the agitation tactics.

I like your perception Townsend. One man's revolutionary is another man's freedom fighter.

You guys know that promoting or belonging to Socialist organizations is not illegal in this country. Don't you?

Of course it's not.  Doesn't about 40% of the country belong to the Democrat party?

Is there a short answer to that?

No, some participants are of that persuasion, but many are not. Even if they all are pinko commies, they make plenty of good points. Sorry you can't separate the message from the messenger.

You may want to consider joining the rest of us in the 21st century.

Come on. How many original tea partiers were pictured sh!tting on whatever law enforcement officers back then used for transportation or flags? I also would realy like to know if female original tea partiers were house in rape-free zone tents. The pee partiers are nothing but animals with whiny noise holes under their noses.

I'd like to see documentation that there were females involved in the original tea party. Wink
