The poster art dismays and disappoints me. I do not want to be associated with a movement that brands itself with the leftist iconic clenched fist, a symbol of tyranny. It would have been much better to have symbols of liberty rather than oppression — Liberty trees, pitchforks, Gadsden flags, tar & feathers, tax collectors being run out of town on rails.

I totally agree. The picture is straight out of a leftist rally. Change the fists to the Revolutionary War flag or something.

Liberty trees, pitchforks, Gadsden flags, tar & feathers, tax collectors being run out of town on rails.

Those are excellent ideas!

But the clenched fist doesn't belong to leftists, commies and anti-American groups.

Man people are fed up with the over taxing and wasting of our hard earned money and are shaking their fists at the congress and current administration demanding that they be accountable.

Maybe you or someone else can make graphics of the kind you describe.

I've seen signs and flags like what you describe at tea parties, etc.

When I first laid eyes on the artwork, my first thought was that the Black Panthers were organizing a march on Washington.
