Its a free country, have they broken any laws? If not then what’s the beef?

If you want our side to get motivated, great, but good luck. Look at the Tea Party, we dropped the ball even when we were losing.

Wanna offset these Clintonite loons? Focus on the 2018 midterms, then. They are.

Well, I wondered when somebody was going to mention the Tea Party. Interesting.

The problem is .. the Tea Party DID NOT PAY THEIR PROTESTERS $1500 to $2500 PER DAY TO ANTAGONIZE PEOPLE. The Tea Party did not have ONE main leader; instead, there were groups who were spontaneously sprouting up all over America .. FROM CITIZENS. No one was being paid.

The DemocRATS NEVER DO ANYTHING THAT IS SPONTANEOUS - IT ALL HAS TO BE BRIBED WITH A DAILY COST OF $1500 TO $2500 for each person.

If I was running a meeting - I would have the biggest movie screen I could hire - and I would have somebody set it up so that the LEFT’s “brochure” could be clearly seen and read by the entire audience (like they were going to see slides). Then, I would go over it page by page; including how much these people were being paid (and if known - who was paying them).

Then, I’d shut down everything and leave.

Nothing spoils a good protest like exposing what they are really doing.

The text of the First Amendment, emphasis added:

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.
There are two clauses in conflict regarding their playbook: Free Speech and Peaceful Assembly. Their plan calls for anything BUT peaceful assembly. Yes, they are attempting to petition the Government through the target Representative, but that clause requires peaceful assembly. So a law is possible if one does not currently exist.

Further, there is the Civil Rights issue of one group interfering with the other who IS Peacefully Assembled to participate in the Town Hall.

Therefore, IMHO, the demonstrators are in violation of a law, written or to be written.
