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.

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 may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

For the last time, DUmmies, it's they're, not their, when you want to say they are.
And they call US idiots. :rotf:

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

There's at least 100x that amount in this picture.  These are the people that pay for your socialism, you loser DUmmy.

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

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.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

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.
