Based on your multiple rambling replies in this thread alone I'm not really concerned about your opinions of my character. I've never engaged in illegal activity at a Tea Party even, I've never been in involved in bigoted or racist activities at a Tea Party event, I've never been involved in violent activities at any Tea Party event.

That's a much better testament to my character than the opinions of some loony OWS nut jobs.

The Tea Party were the adults and OWS were the adolescents.
Nah. garbage is a moot point. En masse any people in a group will cause this.

Heres what Bristol Tennessee goes through every single year from NASCAR tailgate parties.

What you should know about Bristol Motor Speedway

NASCAR is a private, for-profit racing event that brings in hundreds of thousands of paid attendees and hundreds of vendors. What does that have to do with OWS or the Tea Party?

The point is that en masse only 1 of the 2 groups being talked about in this thread caused a trash problem and it wasn't the Tea Party.

Overall I have only seen pics of TP from the news, so I will reserve my comment. And I havent been to a rally for them, BUT OWS in Vermont was peaceful and self-contained.

And alot cleaner than any NASCAR race event I've driven past on Bristol Hwy.jmo.

You may or may not be concerned with how I view your character but you know what? When you can stand anywhere...online, in person or talking with a family member and express the disdain that you have for another person, resorted to the name calling that you have it IS a testament of your character.

You may not like the messengers of OWS or how they present the message but the message itself is very valid and one that needs and must be addressed not to mention that the American people deserve for it to be addressed.

This is not about violent activities, this about basic human values and if you can to sit on this message board and in real life (as you claim) and spew the vitriol, filth and hate that you have for another human being...myself and countless others will leave you to your hate party. I would clearly rather align myself with someone/people who are trying to make a difference because there IS a problem (depsite their color, faith, side of the aisle, how they dress) that weren't so nasty and vile than to stand with someone who was fake, phony and a self-serving liar filled with hate, as I would know that there was a common goal and that goal was not a contest to see who could drag the other down the quickest. My mother always said..."people will drag others down, to lift themselves up".
Your words are full of bigotry, hate and yes racism. So perhaps the education that you want to toss-around didn't serve you so well, since you can't even see that.

Based on what you say here, it is no wonder that the tp IS bought and paid for, just like the rest and their relevance is done.

The only thing funnier would be a degree from an online "university". I'm also far from a kid but I sure wish I could go back to that time.
You're talking about ignorance as you don't understand the value of certain degrees?

That during any of the many Tea Party events I've been to I've never seen or been part of any illegal activities. We never had trouble with the police, nobody was ever pepper sprayed and we never disrespected the facilities we used.

That doesn't make sense, but okay.
