What got under my skin was that it had to be government sponsored.
In my city they set up a tent city in front of city hall. These unwashed clowns would stand outside their tents during the day trying to hand out their flyers to people who were working, while chanting something.
This went on too long. No posted permits allowing this.
Nobody could pull this “spontaneous event” without the democrat mayors ok. It was a real lame attempt to do what? What were the goals? I remember a very excited Randi Rhodes on the radio as saying it wasn’t Astro turf like the tea party, it was the real thing. What was it?
Then after 50 - 60 days the cops moved in, sent them all some where’s ,
Loaded all their crap in dump trucks, cut the lawn and it was over.
Roger that. At least on the 2nd iteration the folks in Reno allowed them to use a city facility that was kinda out of the way and not generally visible to most folks. We did pass by to check out the debris field before, during and after the lame protest. Don’t know if anyone was required to pull permits or not.
