DHS SENDS IN CHOPPER to Intimidate Tea Party Protesters in LA
Gateway Pundit ^ | May 22, 2013 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 05/22/2013 5:18:20 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

ARMED DHS GUARDS greeted St. Louis Tea Party protesters at the Town and Country IRS office on Tuesday.

Around 300 protesters turned out anyway.

DHS parked their vehicles right outside the IRS office just in case the Tea Party protesters got crazy and violent.

But the DHS intimidation was not isolated to St. Louis.

In Los Angeles DHS put a chopper in the air and told Tea Party protesters they could not be on federal property.

They had to move away from the building.

This report came from a Tea Party protester in California.

Many of our 300 tea party folks were approached immediately by Homeland Security and told they could not be on federal property. My lawyer told me as long as I didn’t block passage we were OK. Many Homeland Security trucks and a helicopter above us scared many patriots so most of group went to public side walk to rally.

However, I stayed at IRS entrance telling Homeland Security it is my right to be there.

Then as I was leaving carrying my sign a woman jumped out of her car in IRS parking lot and started threatening me, “I am with ICE!”

To which I replied, “I am with Laguna Patriots!”(continued)

I guess that is why it will come down to war.

Let them fire the first shots. Actually, I believe they intend to.

The original Tea Party people dressed up as Injuns, what should we dress up when we end up having to do mischeif...

Wear baseball caps backward and saggy jeans that expose our underwear? B-P Extra credit if you put a ghetto blaster on your shoulder, the bigger the box, the more points you get. B-)

Well, usually the one fired at first gets more sympathy than the one who started it. I think that was the South's big mistake was to fire on Ft. Sumpter first.

I bought a rifle in .308, my first rifle. Then, I bought an AR-15 and I developed the usual AR-15 addiction. Plan to sell my .308 and all the ammo, since I don’t use it anymore... You know, assuming I don’t lose it in an unfortunate boating accident.

Washington D.C. now truly is the (D)istrict of (C)hicago.

Homeland Security, the IRS and the Obama Administration are running scared - they’re pulling strings trying to fine some violent Tea Party members who ‘fit the picture’. Their illegal activities and special fundings were based on the lie that Tea Party people were violent terrorists.

Whoever finds a violent Tea Party member - and reports on it - gets one of the myriad prizes offered by liberals to keep the press in line... Pulitzer anyone?

“FIND A CONSERVATIVE TERRORIST. NOW. HELP! OUR LIES ABOUT CONSERVATIVES ARE FALLING APART...signed, your friends at the IRS and Homeland Security....” The New York Times and NBC will sell their souls to get this story AND there are groups ready to fake it for them... buy popcorn.

So much for sequester. Choppers cost thousands an hour to operate.

Alex Jones was reporting on DHS showing up at train stations, bus stations, etc. two years ago. He was derided as a conspiracy theorist.

Homeland Security is trying to provoke the Tea Party to anger - that's why they send armed and untrained 'fake police' to our protests. They want something violent to happen.

They know we're not violent but violence is the excuse they used to profile us. The excuse used to secure the assistance of the IRS in their illegal targeting of conservatives. The lie of our violence was their justification to the press too. Ever wonder why the press jumps to the conclusion (every time) that a terrorists act was done by a conservative? Until proven otherwise?

And now their lies are falling apart. Obama's team must find one violent Tea Party group.

If you see a person at a Tea Party protest advocating violence it's most likely a plant working for Obama or Clinton... Take their picture.

The part of the press owned by Obama will be there to capture any violence. Rest assured that any member of the press who finds a violent Tea Party person will be offered one of the myriad prizes given by liberals to keep the press in line... Pulitzer anyone?

That’s the misnomer of labeling government as “public”. There is no such thing as collective ownership, and the government possesses the force to claim it. It was said that Communism would have the collectivization of the factors of production; that they would be “socialized”. Unfortunately the average joe wouldn’t have a say in any of the affairs. Shutup, and do as you are told.

This is why forcing you to pay taxes is so insidious. They claim that “you own it”, but In actuality you only go where they want you to go. Do you think a real owner is forbidden to go anywhere?

Tea party protests should be held on the streets in front of the houses where the IRS and DHS employees live. Let them know that if they violate the people’s rights, that nothing is sacred or off limits then.

” Thank you President Bush for creating the DHS. It isn’t like we foresaw this misuse...

/sarcasm”

First thing I thought of when I heard of DHS, was what would happen if a leftist comes to occupy the white house?

The only policemen I have ever seen at Tea Party event were hired by the event and I talked to one of them. He thought we were nice people.

It seems that the DOD are the only ones who think we are a threat.

I wonder why that is? (/s)

We were told, right here, that we were being “chicken littles” and “conspiracy nuts”.

Kinda wish I could search back and name names... It’d be fun to get their take on current events.

Real policemen aren't the problem - the Obama's private army - the Department of Homeland Security 'rent a cop' types. I doubt any of them have police training. A fact that could make them very dangerous... (members of TSA are NOT police officers either... )
