100-200 in front of IRS at 55 Market. Signs, flags, kids, families & cameras. Group of anti-protesters but didn't look like ACORN (not very professional). Their signs said "racists." Will be another tea party with radio station down the street at Ceasar Chavez Plaza at 5pm-7pm. I passed out flyers listing congressional actions threatening Liberty. None were thrown away. No problems, no litter. Bored cops (on overtime probably). Talked to lot of people. Exchanged information.
200? We’ve got 1/10 your population an we had a thousand.
The protest which has gotten the most PR begins at 5.
Ah, so that was just a warmer-upper. Good.
Where you live? This is San Jose, a bastion of liberal strong hold.
If you are going, can you ping me with pics. I will be in a meeting.
I’ll do my best.
Thank you very much. I am headed to Gilroy and won’t be back until late.
The last republican was elected here in, oh I think about 1928.
Hi, I’m a Freeper newbie poster but a longtime lurker. I’ll be at the downtown SJ rally in about an hour or so.
Couldn’t be at the daytime Tea Party ‘cause, you know, I’m at WORK paying taxes!
One of my signs reads: “Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.” - Ronald Reagan
I like that. Have fun tonight. Stop lurking.
There was another Tea Party at 5pm, and I just returned from it. It was huge!!!! Thousands of people were gathered at Ceasar Chavez park. The amazing thing was the amount of honks from the cars passing by. It was great!!!!!!!
