Raw Video of ACORN Being Booted from 9/12 March for Selling "Don't Tread on Me" Flags

Here is raw video from the 9/12 rally where some ACORN people were escorted out of the protest area because they were selling "Don't Tread on Me" flags to the crowd. A 9/12 Protester followed them until they were out of the area, shouting constantly "These are ACORN; They are Frauds." Capitol Police also followed them part of the way to make sure they left the protest area. At one point, the ACORN folks reacted with anger at the protesters following them and exposing them to the crowd as being from ACORN. A minor altercation took place.

The end of the video contains a short interview with the protester who followed the ACORN people and shouted at them. He said the ACORN people were told to leave by police, but did not initially do so, instead circling back into the crowd to continue selling their flags. That's when he began following them and shouting to the crowd that they were from ACORN. . . . (VIDEO)

ACORN’s agenda seems to include the taking of capital from the taxpayers to promote the demise of Capitalism, as well to use Capitalism to profit from the taxpayers protesting the demise of Capitalism.

Well....hopefully you know what I mean.

Just proves that it takes only one good man to confront and defeat evil.

All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.

Yeah. I’m guessing the taxpayers bought the flags in the first place.

The best thing about this is that ACORN is stuck with a pile of cheap-a$$ poorly printed Gadsden flags at the end of the day. They aren’t going to be able to sell those at their own rallies!

I liked his attitude about not pressing charges. She may have deserved it but in the big picture it would have meant little compared to the message.

“I’m guessing the taxpayers bought the flags in the first place.”

LOL. I hadn’t thought of that, but you’re right. Probably did.

Tim Jones is a great guy!

What was ACORN’s purpose in selling “Don’t Tread On Me” flags? Rather ironic coming from Acorn as to its message.
