How about a “spontaneous gathering”?

How about a boycott of all businesses on that day to protest the mayor’s move against the Constitutional right to freedom of assembly? If it costs the city thousands of dollars in sales taxes, perhaps he wouldn’t think his strategy was so clever.

If the right to freely assemble can be “canceled by the government! What other Constitutional rights will soon be “canceled by the government”.

All Hail Comrade Zero!

With all of that attention, the City of Cape Coral felt there could be more than 500 people attending the tea party.

"Hey Rahm! Nice work. That was easy. Now shut them the rest of them down. Soros says he doesn't want to hear about any more f**king tea parties!"

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Change the venue from the park to city hall. Block the streets.

Print up some "We will be heard" signs to sprinkle in with the others.

Do you really think the original tea party was sanctioned by the government? Isn't that the point? How else will the government start taking these things seriously?

No violence. Lots of serious citizens. That's the way.

in FL most county or city commissioners have a real job on top of their municipal posts.

Therefore arget the law firm or real estate company or business of those commissioners.

Who the blazes cares what the city government says?

Where in the Constitution does it say that the right to assemble requires insurance?

Did Bostonians wait for an EPA permit to dump the tea?

Maybe Eric Holder is right - we ARE a nation of cowards!

This is unconstitutional! People, wake up out of your apathy! Stop this. Don’t let these fascists take away your freedoms! Day after day they are doing this, here a little, there a little. We must put a stop to it!

I am going to call and email the Mayor of the city and the director of parks and recreation of Cape Coral, FL.

I noticed that they never included the mayor’s name or the director of the parks in the article, so I am giving them here.

I wonder if a large number of people calling and emailing would “persuade” them to change their mind?

Jim Burch, Mayor 239-574-0436 jburch@capecoral.net
Stephen H. Pohlman, CPRP Director (239) 573-3110 spohlman@capecoral.net
Michael J. Kalvort, CPRP Operations Mgr/Deputy Director (239) 573-3133 mkalvort@capecoral.net
Robert J. Burns, CPRP Parks Superintendent (239) 573-3115 rburns@capecoral.net
Keith Locklin, CPRP Recreation Superintendent (239) 573-3119 klocklin@capecoral.net

Gee...it’s a good thing the actual Americans who held that little tea party a couple hundred years ago got their permit, huh? What courage, what patriotism, what determination those Cape Coral folks are showing, huh? They’ll hold their little show, just as long as it’s not going to offend or upset anyone. Anybody who wonders why the left wins all the time, maybe it has something to do with the spinelessness of the right!!

He says that even now if Rosko is willing to get insurance for the event he'll likely re-authorize it.

What a great opportunity for an insurance company to grab great PR by donating the days coverage.

Of course it will NOT be Progressive...

If everybody shows up what can they do? NOTHING!!!

If everybody refuses to file a tax return what can they do? NOTHING!!!

It's time to tell these we are sick and tired of being pushed around!!!
