Capitol Police to Tea Party: Show Us Your Websites or Forget Your Rally
Gateway Pundit ^ | June 4, 2013 | Jim Hoft

CAPITOL POLICE SUDDENLY WANTS TO SEE TEA PARTY WEBSITES BEFORE PROTEST APPROVED.

And they are taking weeks to grant the request.

The Tea Party Patriots were planning a rally in Washington DC on Wednesday June 19th.

But they ran into a wall.

The Capitol Police want to see their websites first.

Kevin Mooneyhan from the Tea Party Patriots described this latest assault on the Tea Party:

Below is the timeline of events surrounding our June 19th rally at the Capitol. We haven’t done anything to publicize this event yet because we wanted to make sure we had the permit in hand. You know, follow the rules, do the right thing, etc.

Event Date: June 19, 2013 Permit Submitted: 5/22/2013 via fax

Officer Brown contacted me on 5/23 to ask me 2 questions If we would have a banner and if so what the dimensions would be and how we would hang it.

If we were going to have buses and to make sure that we coordinated with Union Station since the Capitol couldn’t accommodate buses.

The impression that I got was that it would likely be approved in a few days. She told me, “Hopefully the next time you hear from me, it will be to let you know that the permit is approved.”

The following Tuesday, 5/28/13 I reached out to Officer Brown for an update....

Wanna win an election? Run a conservative. People won't vote Liberal(R).

Welcome to the communist-Islamist dictatorship known as the United States. So sad.

Oh it’s believable. I think the federal gummint at every level is slow-walking and stonewalling conservatives who want to have a voice. It’s a game to them: They know they’ll have to eventually approve the permits, but if they stall long enough the organizers won’t have sufficient lead time. Then the press will take up the slack by pointing out how small the crowds are.

It’s just another brush stroke on the painting.

Why would you think that Boener and Cantor would do something in support of the Tea Party, just because it involves defending our constitutional right to assemble freely and to petition the government for our grievances? You obviously have them confused with principled conservatives.

Why are Cruz/Paul/Lee/Kelly/Gowdy and a few others being quiet?

Are the muslims having any problems setting up their 9/11/13 march on DC? I doubt it, probably smooth sailing like JayZ and Beyoncé in Cuba.

Sounds like a 14th. Amendment case that was made to order.

No. There will be no standing. The permits will be approved, but late enough to damage the cause.

There seems to be huge problems with the first amendment these days: Religion, press, speech....and now assembly.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

By my way of thinking, a "peaceable" assembly doesn't require anyone's approval. Period.

God said I have a right to gather with others.

Rule followers don’t count in Obamaworld. The laws as written, mean nothing, UNLESS it works in Obama”s favor. See illegal immigration. See voter fraud. See secret e-mail accounts. See IRS scandal. See Fast and Furious....ad nauseum.

Betcha they wouldn’t demand this of a socialist/leftist group such as NOW or the New Negro Panthers or some such thing ...

Show up in the hundreds of thousands on June 19th.

What are they going to do, stamp their feet and cry?

They treated OWS with kid gloves and give the Tea Party a hard time?

OWS-DC had to get permits from the DC Metropolitan police, they never ‘occupied’ Capitol grounds so far as I remember. This permit is to assemble on the Capitol grounds, so different police force, the Capitol Police. (there’s also the Park Police that might get involved if they want to assemble on the Mall)
