Great photos and slogans.

Hoping this starts a consistent message by a growing number of us.

Thanking you, Houstonites

Very nice.

I am hoping this morphs into a serious protest of the tax structure and these give-a-ways.

Perhaps a “week without Republicans” —— week of April 15. No work. No purchasess. Kids stay home from school.

1/52 of the National GDP down the drain.

Sorry I missed it, I was at work watching the trail riders come in. Would have rather been there.

I wanted so badly to drive over to Houston today for this, but work does come first. I hope next time they plan these for a weekend where more people can participate.

Hey, Houston, great job. I attended the Atlanta Tea Party and we fielded 200 plus in the pouring rain on the Capitol steps. It started on time but because of the weather ended early. We got a lot of encouragement from drivers passing by and from a group of State legislators. Again, great job Houston!

I think the turnout could have been much larger if the protest had been better planned. Why couldn’t it have been held on Saturday or Sunday instead of a workday? Apart from this website, I did not see or hear any promotion of the protest until this morning, on the local conservative radio station, KSEV 700. But I do appreciate the efforts of those that showed up!
