I believe a majority elected public officials encouraging violence against their own constituents. Joel Send a noteboard - 14/03/2011 10:12:59 PM
I think that what the protestor did was wrong. But I also don't think its fair blame the 'tea party' for the bad eggs. I have relatives that are tea partiers and they are not racist people.

That makes them responsible. That's not to say every Tea Party supporter is a racist, but it does mean the Tea Party supporters who aren't need to start taking a closer and more critical look at who's leading them instead of dismissing all the critics as commies and terrorists.

I thought you stopped needing a police escort to go to church in America back in the mid-sixties. Here's a thought: If you don't like being compared to the Klan, stop supporting people who act like them.
