I went to the Hartford TEA party rally in front of the IRS building.
I was there 20 minutes early. There was a DHS vehicle parked on the corner that they thought we were going to be.
We gathered on another corner, closer to the entrance to the building. The DHS vehicle was moved and parked (in an illegal spot) on the corner where we were. That is what passed for intimidation in Hartford.
That's when it would pay to have a friend or two in the local police department. Imagine a DHS vehicle getting ticketed and towed... :-)
