CAPITOL HILL POLICE BLOCK TEA PARTY ACTIVISTS FROM IMMIGRATION RALLY
Breitbart News ^ | June19,2013 | Mike Flynn

Posted on 06/19/2013 8:10:38 AM PDT by penelopesire

Capitol Hill police are trying to block activists attending Wednesday's "Audit the IRS" rally from also attending a nearly day-long press conference on immigration, hosted by Reps. Steve King and Louie Gohmert. The IRS rally is on the west side of the Capitol, while the immigration event is on the east side. Organizers for the IRS event were told by Hill police that "your people" can only assemble on the west side. Organizers were told to remove the activists from the immigration event. Capitol Hill police left a voicemail for Kevin Mooneyhan, Deputy Executive Director of Tea Party Patriots, saying that "your people" only are permitted to assemble for the event on the west side of the Capitol. The activists' presence at the immigration event on the east side, supposedly violates the terms of the Tea Party's permit. Mooneyhan was instructed to move any activists who planned on attending the Tea Party rally away from the immigration event. Keep in mind, the immigration event is hosted by sitting members of Congress. The notion that citizens can't attend an event featuring duly elected Representatives in a public space is absurd.

we can’t recover still because we still carpet baggers here.

They ruin their states and now come here looking to ruin this state and yes the culture was destroyed after the war.

I see many southern kids today ho care nothing , can’t say sir or thank you and some think acting all ghetto is cool

Thankfully my kids know the war, correct those who do not , fly the flag and help out at the SCV

just let a message to Rubio, AGAIN, speaker, and Mica.

If talk radio told their millions to all call and we got all sites like this to call then they would start to wake up but not one of us can just sit here moaning and then not calling or mailing

“The police state in action.”

You ain’t seen nuth’ yet, my friend!

Just wait until the Federal Stormtroopers open fire against the Tea Party - and patriots start to fill up the ERs....and the graveyards.

If it doesn’t happen today...It will happen sooner or later - mark my words.

Obama has doubled down.

This is not our country anymore. It belongs to the illegal aliens and their commie ‘RAT massas down at the DNC.

How can they tell the difference between “your people” and “their people”?

Maybe by the lack of trash they leave behind in the case of ours and the abundance thereof in the case of theirs?

I’m sure the OWS Rape Tents would have been given a prominent location, too.

DC is no place for the little people....just the elites, their worker-drones, and their armed personal security.

The activists' presence at the immigration event on the east side, supposedly violates the terms of the Tea Party's permit.

Yes, but does it violate the terms of the congress-critters' press conference permit?

;-)

Permit? Do you now need a permit to demonstrate at the Capitol? I'll bet Code Pink, ANSWER, Occupy, MoveOn, etc. don't bother to ask for permits.

The only way to get the attention of FedGov™ is for a state to shell one of their Army forts.

It worked, the last time that happened. That state certainly got the attention of the Fedgov.
