The St. Louis Tea Party will hold a press conference and peaceable protest at SEIU Headquarters 5585 Pershing Ave., Suite 130, St. Louis, MO 63112 at Noon Saturday, August 8, 2009
snip The Tea Party specifically requests the NAACP and the ACLU to come out in support of Kenneth Gladney’s rights which were trampled by these hooligans. We call on Representative Russ Carnahan to denounce the beating. We call on President Obama to denounce the beatings. We call on St. Louis County to prosecute the assailants to fullest extent of the law.

“but how many of you have actually been in a battle that turned ugly?”
Me.
I was in the streets against Noriega for 2 years.
But I understand the problem. The U.S. has never been through this. It is a new experience for my fellow Americans.
Just look at those photos of the young folks in Honduras. That is how it was in Panama for 2 years. And that was nothing like what was going on behind the scenes like blowing up electrical transmission towers, etc.
You fail to understand that there is a war going on. Being hurt may be part of the price. Wishywashy wimps will lose our country for us.
Whatever you say, Mr. Chamberlain.
“But I understand the problem. The U.S. has never been through this.”
I correct myself…
Yes it has…when we broke away from the British and during the Civil War. But not in our life time.
Kenneth Gladney was just on Cavuto... should be on youtube soon..
I’m glad the brave folks back in 1776 didn’t think as you do.
What did he say?
These offices happen to be in a very congested part of town where there is next to no parking, although right down the street from a Metrolink lot. I am busy tomorrow, but will at least drive by.
Never allow yourself to be backed down into a defensive position and fight a defensive war when you already have the enemy on the run.
“How I hate a defensive battle.” -Gen. George S. Patton, loosely paraphrased on the history of the man!
Grrrrrrr. I wasn’t trying to dis Glenn, just buck him up. We will need cameras as much as muscle and heart more than both.
This being such a big union town, this is an excellent choice. This is not what the unions were organized to do and many honest and upright members of the carpenters, pipe fitters, plumbers, etc., will tell you that.
Are they literally a branch of Acorn? I know of course they are ideologically, but is there actually an organizational tie? If so, that is quite interesting
Go St Louis!
“You can’t run from a bully or a thug, you have to stand up to them.”
Absolutely!
Cobra1 to god, are you there?
Cobra1 this is god wait one.
BLAM!
Cobra1 this is god, target neutralized.
Had Mr. Gladney not been a conservqative both would be on every news network spewing their racist bile.
If the SEIU is going to act as a brownshirt brigade then it should be protested. However, you are right that this is dangerous and the people going to the protest should realize that they are running a risk of being attacked.
