Just got back from the tax day action here in Nashville
   
Once again, not a bad turnout for a workday afternoon. We had about 50 people approximately. Listened to some speeches then went down to BoA corporate and presented them with our bill for $1.5 Billion. They threatened us with arrest for trespassing, so we moved it to the sidewalk and yelled at them and passed out leaflets for 30 minutes or so.

Our representative who went inside was called a "terrorist". Which is VERY funny because, unlike me, he's a pretty mild mannered guy.

I don't know if we did any good or not, but we did get a few add ons. And it definitely felt pretty good. It ain't over though by a long shot.

2. You have more patience than me.
   
I would have snapped if I was called a terrorist. I'm ****ing sick of these assholes slandering people who disagree with them. Especially since, if we dare call them out we are called liars and unreasonable fanatics. Well, I'm calling them out, their fascists! Their strategy's are right out of Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany.

4.  I did the MoveOn action vs. JP Morgan Chase in Pelham, NY.
   
We had a turnout of about 25 . No threats from either the bank or the cops. Just a reminder to leave a path for people to leave and enter the bank.

We sent three people inside to "bill" the bank for 2 billion in underpayment. Manager accepted it w/o protest.

A good time was had by all.... near as I can tell.

It went straight in the trash bin too.

I went looking for Tennessee Commie's get-together.  I found one article written by a citizen.  The pictures she posted showed about 15 people, including 4 guys sitting pretty comfortably on some kind of ledge.  Hangin out. 

Bing returned many more hits of Tea party rallies.

Here is a link to the DUmp for the thread on the Denver get-together:  DUmp link (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x919682)

15-20 people.  Looks like such a quiet city!  Where are the people and traffic??

Weed.

Remember that the local grower got busted and lost half his farm. Pending his pardon from obama, he's looking for someone to haul his boat from TN to the west coast.

I'd be willing to bet that most of the moonbats in those pics are part of the 48% of citizens who pay no taxes at all.

Yet they wail that the upper income earners, who pay the vast majority of income taxes, are "stealing" from them by not paying more.

Go figure.

Dear Terrorist,

You snapped a long time ago.  And who's fascists are you calling out? The left wing terrorists in Madison used fascist tactics but, of course, the fascists learned those tactics from the progressives.

Well, DUmmy white_wolf, I'll go a step further, and call you an illiterate liar and fanatic.
