Already there are reports of intimidation, harassment, and fascist brownshirt-ism:

Capitol Hill police are trying to block activists attending Wednesday's "Audit the IRS"...

Organizers for the IRS event were told by Hill police that "your people" can only assemble on the west side. Organizers were told to remove the activists from the immigration event. Capitol Hill police left a voicemail for Kevin Mooneyhan, Deputy Executive Director of Tea Party Patriots, saying that "your people" only are permitted to assemble for the event on the west side of the Capitol. The activists' presence at the immigration event on the east side, supposedly violates the terms of the Tea Party's permit.

Since the Tea Party attendees are not employees of any Tea Party organization, but simply free citizens exercising their First Amendment rights, HOW exactly do the Capitol Police expect the Tea Party organizers to "remove" them from anywhere, or otherwise control what they do?
