many of you here on this board continually talk about the violence associated with tea party rallies.....yet....I don't believe there has been any proof as to actual violence occurring during a rally.  However, some of you continue to call tea party people violent and racist. 

So...why aren't ya'll talking about the Latinos in AZ who were protesting against the immigration bill?  A group protesting against this immigration bill in AZ began to fight with a man who was for the bill.  Police escorted this man away for his own safety when they too came under attack by people throwing things at them like water bottles.  I have yet to see a tea party rally show anything like this and yet some of you have done nothing but make fun of them and call them names and continually label them as violent.  So now...I'd like to know what you think about the violence seen and caught on camera during this protest by Latinos in AZ.

Calling the Tea Party members violent.... - nnn

is simply a way to give them a bad name. If said often enough, some people, who will believe anything, will begin to believe it. It's merely a tactic and only those with any common sense will be able to see through it. ;)

Absolutely. If Duke can see through it, there are bound - to be plenty more

Calling a group violent.... - nnn

[ In Reply To ..]
because a racist happens to support that group is still not a good defense. As I said, people with "common sense" will understand that in EVERY group/organization there are the good and the bad. One bad apple doesn't spoil the whole bunch unless you're a person who happens to hate apples and then you'll throw them all away. It still doesn't change the facts.
You might want to apply your logic a little less - selectively

You'll be taken much more seriously then.

expressed by Obama groupies is a misnomer, whether selective or otherwise. This is one group that is impossible to take "seriously." It's sort of like, monkey say, monkeys do... no pun intended. Blind allegiance is far more dangerous than tea parties. ;)

(using your wording from the post below which is very unique, hope you don't mind) the difference is in the "equipment" you use to make that hole and a backhoe makes a much more quality hole and that's a BIG difference which makes ALL the difference. ;)

Thanks for the chuckle. Yep, you're definitely a con.

it was clearly obvious the poster didn't understand the concept at all or just too stubborn to take her/his foot out of her/his mouth. ;)

Is blind allegiance similar to blind faith? - Charo
[ In Reply To ..]
You seem to have plenty of that!
Yes, they are similar.... - nnn

but the difference is in "who" you have that faith in or allegiance to and that's a BIG difference which makes ALL the difference. ;)

Have you never heard... - nnn
[ In Reply To ..]
the saying, "Monkey see, monkey do?" It has nothing to do with race but irrational/childish acts (something a monkey would see and then do). However, seeing as how anything that has to do with our president can and usually will lead up to a person being called "racist," I felt inclined to clear that up. I see I was correct in my assumptions. ;)
Since you don't seem to understand....it's the "no pun intended" part. - Why would you

won't be making remarks that you cannot explain. This is highly doubtful though.
You just don't like the explanation... - nnn
[ In Reply To ..]
You have to learn to deal with that disability.
Okay, I'll deal with the fact that your definition of an explanation amounts to - squirming
[ In Reply To ..]
and that the wrong end of you talks quite freely.
That's a lib's definition... - nnn
[ In Reply To ..]
of "squirming".... The concept of how any individual may appear with the refusal to accept dangerous and inept concepts and idealogy of the liberal party. Speaking of talking out the wrong end, it's the only end the libs are able to speak from because their heads are continually in the sand. ;)
You wouldn't have included "no pun intended" (sm) - Nikki
[ In Reply To ..]

unless you're a blatant racist.  Your other hateful posts on this board merely confirm that.


If you had written "monkey see, monkeys do" WITHOUT the "no pun intended," I wouldn't have had a second thought about it.


By including "no pun intended," you insinuated there WAS a pun that could be made about the "monkey," and you more than likely INTENDED to make it.


I hope you keep posting and exposing your true self (though I won't be reading anything but responses to your posts).  It's interesting to see the number of people agreeing with your racist comments.  However, I think it's good to finally see the true side of these people emerge.  Please keep posting!  Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

Thanks, Nikki, for exposing the miscreants for what they truly are. - Really?
[ In Reply To ..]
I don't know what "nnn" stands for, but my vivid imagination would not allow me to vocalize it. LOL
Interesting Nikki - see message

NJ posted monkey see monkey do last year, and you guys didn't have a problem with it.

What exactly is racist about the saying anyway?

Since your posts always throw out the RACE CARD, VIOLENCE and HATE spew for anyone who does not go along with your PROG/LIB agenda, who is the hatemonger/racist/fearmonger?
Please see message. - Nikki
[ In Reply To ..]

Did NJ have a "no pun intended" after the "monkey see monkey do"?  I doubt it.  If she did, please copy her post so I can see it.


Nothing is racist about the saying, UNLESS it's followed by a "no pun intended."  By saying "no pun intended," one acknowledges that there's another meaning for the "monkey."  I'd like to know what that meaning is if it isn't racist.


My posts don't throw out the race card.  I reply to people who write bigoted posts.


I'm not Republican.  "Hatemonger/racist and especially fearmonger titles belong to the Republicans.  Michelle Bachmann said that people should be "armed and dangerous." To me, that promotes fear and hatemongering.


 

You really have no clue.... - nnn
[ In Reply To ..]
The reason people have to add...no pun intended...is because there are those out there exactly like you who will take something the wrong way because that's they way they wish to see it. I am certainly no racist. My grandson's father is black and we love my grandson and his father very much. You need to stop with the accusations. It just makes you look very, very foolish.
If it worries you enough that someone will take it wrong - why say it?
[ In Reply To ..]
So, how's your "no pun intended" workin for ya? :P
Bingo Ms. nnn - really?
[ In Reply To ..]
I am the poster who originally questioned your "no pun intended".

By suggesting there is "no pun intended" you admit recognizing that one exists.

It was more than likely that you would claim (as you did) that you were simply using a "saying".

Now you admit you used this "saying" to elicit reaction.

You seem to get such a kick out of "exposing" others, yet this baiting behavior exposes you as small-minded and transparent.
PS: I am the lower case "really?" - really?
[ In Reply To ..]
didn't realize there was more than one.

Just ask the lefties this question...when was the last time - you saw cops

[ In Reply To ..]
in riot gear standing around the tea party? Never!! BUT they're ALWAYS there for protestors pushing thier lefty democratic garbage....

It's a common fear tactic used by the left - anon

[ In Reply To ..]
They have no proof and no facts. It is how the lefties spread fear. Usually the ones who call them names (violent, racist, etc) are actually the ones who are violent and racists. Also, when I hear people saying that they are acting like children, it's usually the democrats who are the ones acting like children. But they like to call the other side the same names and accusations they themselves are and do.

But you right, nobody is talking about the violent AZ protesters.

The fact of the matter is there has been no violence at any tea party, and to say there is without proof is total rubbish.

People should just get over the tea parties and all the nasty little comments made about them. The people at the events are here to stay and here to remind us in the peaceful manner they have been doing just what our government is doing to us. Making up things is not doing anyone any good.
