Oh, don’t remind me of the tear gas, beatings, and dog bites on that fateful day!
I was in DC for the health care protest and decided to ask one of the cops about the crowd. He said he liked working the Tea Party gatherings the most since people didn’t cause any problems.
He also said that he’d never be that far away from his SUV for any of the other crowds - he was about 20 yards away from it talking to us.
He also said that they didn’t even bother deploying snipers on the roof of the Capitol except when Obama was there.
Later on I saw a piece of blowing paper and had to chase it around trying to pick it up and when I looked up the SUV full of cops were watching me and grinning.
They know who the bad guys are, and it ain’t us.
