Subject: RE: BS: KKK/Tea Party Day
Well, you are in a very, very small minority, bruce... The spitting story that has taken on Holy Grail porportions over the years has been debunked... Yeah, there were a few incidents... I am sorry that you were involved with one of them but...
...to brand a decade of demonstrations where 99% of the people were non-violent and non-vilence was preached heavily in cities accross the country as equal to what we are seein' now is down right wrong... It plays to an old lie and therefore folks think that todays' behavior is no worse than the 60s... That is complete and utter bullshit...
BTW, just check out the signs, bruce... Yeah, google up picture of Tea Baggers... There's plenty of them... You would never have seen signs like these at any anti-war or civil rights demonstrations in the 60s... Never!!!
The fact that none of the righties here is wiloling to step up and say that things have gotten outta control here is the same as what we are seein' on the larger stage... No one has the balls to tell the rednecks that rude and uncivil behavior is not appropriate...
I will make this prediction: If the right wing cannot find the courage to stand up to Redneck Nation then they ain't gonna win the moderate voters... Yeah, they might do okay this November but the longer that the right is defined as violent people who hate the government the longer it is going to be in exile once that the moderates catch their breath and think about how they want America's future to look... And you can take that to the bank!!!
