Danger - Tea Partiers - Danger

Quincy, IL, sends out riot gear clad police to confront Tea Party protestors, who are quite lawabiding and peaceful.  The Quincy, IL police department then issues a BS filled official statement, regarding these Tea Party protestors, which is thoroughly refuted by the viddies taken by private individuals (viddies can be viewed at link) who are attending the protest.

As if this perception of peaceful Tea Party protestors as exceptionally dangerous by an arm of the State is not bad enough, regular Army personnel, stationed at Ft. Knox, have also included Tea Party protestors as an exceptionally dangerous element in a recent military exercise scenario.

This week, I was contacted by a number of civilian and military personnel (enlisted and officer ranks) who expressed concern about a military exercise scenario proposed for Ft. Knox, the U.S. Bullion Depository. (For the record, I called Ft. Knox security for an official comment and received the standard reply: “We are not authorized to discuss this exercise.”)

As with most such exercises, the Ft. Knox scenario outline occurred in stages, as if real time intelligence was being provided at various intervals. The first intel advisory I received was issued on Friday, 23 April 2010, and identifies the terrorist threat adversaries as “Local Militia Groups / Anti-Government Protesters / TEA Party.”

You read that right: “TEA Party”!

As the writer of the above quote notes, this is an “ominous political precedent,” and indeed it is, so I am cautiously encouraged to read this also.

The military officers and enlisted personnel with whom I spoke are all dedicated uniformed Patriots who are loyal, first and foremost, to their oath to “support and defend” our Constitution “against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”

Their concerns about this exercise mirrored my own…

We are living history, America, right now, today.  What will be recorded about these times when we are dust?  Will the record show the decline of America into Socialism and collapse, or will the record show America throwing off the chains which are even now being added to, link by link, and arising as a true nation of liberty, freedom and opportunity?

  1. I’ve been to many Tea Parties in my neck of the woods…at first, it was curiosity.  These people are in no way radical or violent.  What they are is…a group of like-minded individuals concerned about their future, the future of their children, and the future of this country.  I will say it is refreshing to meet people who share the same values.  I would not call them “protesters”...I would call them “constitutional advocates”.

    Personally, I think the “Tea Party” is a good thing.  We live in interesting times.

    By the by, at one of these Tea Parties I attended, I ran into an old friend who served on the USS Ethan Allen (SSBN-608), in the early 70’s

  2. I would not call them “protesters”...I would call them “constitutional advocates”.

    Yabu, your suggestion to recognize these individuals as constitutional advocates, rather than protestors, is definitely more appropriate.
