As presented to the followers of The Tea Party Patriots Facebook Page.
Talk about sequestering freedom of speech and the right to peaceably assemble, by stonewalling. This is a solid case for infrigment.
Double standard being applied here!!!
We should NEVER tolerate this from an "Elected Official"!!!
ATLANTA TEA PARTY STATEMENT REGARDING CITY OF ATLANTA AND OCCUPY ATLANTA
The Atlanta Tea Party has inquired on several occasions about securing city venues like Woodruff Park to hold rallies for conservative activists. Because of the the fees involved, and extensive bureaucratic red tape regarding the permit process, we decided to hold past events at the State Capitol instead. We were also told by Capitol Police we could not have signs on poles or sticks, or not allowed to even pass out little flags to wave, because they were held up by sticks. We complied, as we have always followed the letter of the law and conducted ourselves with honor of our City, State, and Country.
Occupy Atlanta has had control of Woodruff Park for the past weeks with no permit, no fees, the use of poles and sticks to hold some signs and their tents, and a disregard for public health with the conditions they are living in at the Park. Had Tea Party activists conducted themselves like Occupy protesters, they would have been arrested immediately, but Mayor Kasim Reed rewarded their disregard for the law with an Executive Order allowing them to stay, stating that he sympathizes with them. The Mayor has chosen to grant special rights and privileges regarding free speech based on which group is in line with his own political ideology. This action by Mayor Reed has set a precedent that has a profound and chilling effect on the First Amendment rights of not only conservative activists, but of all citizens.
The Atlanta Tea Party is planning a rally in the spring and we will seek to use a City venue. If equal rights are not shown and if we are denied, or forced to go through an extensive permit process and pay any fees whatsoever, we will file a discrimination law suit against the City of Atlanta.

An elected official is put in place, regardless of who voted for him/her, to represent all and not just a SELECT few.
If Mayor Reed can issue an executive order to forgive and forget the law to a selective few and circumvent his oath to SUPPORT & DEFEND the constitution, then he is not worthy of holding ANY public office.
If you're as pissed off as I am, here is his direct contact information and LET'R RIP!

You haven't seen nothing yet! By the time this is over the tea baggers will be bowing down to us.
Anon, I haven't seen anything yet from you clowns but a bunch of whiners that use racism, attacking police, rape, trash your occupied space, are clueless morons, that abuse sex & drugs, and are pervs exposing themselves to children, and desecrating the flag & war memorials, whos agenda is to embracing communism, except Nazi endorsements, and are anti-Semitism, vulgarity by
spitting on people, zombies by mindless chanting, and sexual perversions, faking injuries, abusing local business owners, demanding free stuff, and are sick perverts who feet sniffers and drinking urine, and get Iranian Hardliner Support.
Yeah, right, that will be the day we Tea Party folks bow down to the likes of you clowns. If there will be any bowing down by us, it will be to reach down and pull the rug out from underneath your movement.
@ Nona (No Name)
Bow down?
If you knew history and the reason for this Nation and its founding you would find that we Americans bow to no one.
No, we shoot those who request it.
Be very, very careful what you wish for as for one day you may receive it.
This all Bush's fault?
Global Warming?
OWS is here for good. We are bigger and stronger then the tea party. We are the 99. The tea party can go to Hell.
Hey STUPID SkI, did you get though 1st grade yet, loser!

If this is what the Tea Party is up against..... I'm shaking in my boots!

(sorry for the big version)
OWS is a good representative of the liberal population and ideology. Icky
Hey Dylan, no you're nothing but about 0.00007% at the most, so stop beating on your chest. And based on Firebird's link you're some of the most incoherent group of people the world has ever seen.
Firebird- What the ..... "ummm, ya know, you see" holy crap!
Chris- this is going bite the left in the ass come 2012 election. I'm good with that.
Trestin- I am sure the Dems are going to try and put this on Bushs head... some how.
I just linked to what Firebird posted and did not know whether or not to laugh or cry?
These "people" are in need of serious psychiatric intervention and education, in that order.
Oh, and a daily shower/bath would be in order as well.
At least OWS isn't a bunch of pussies like the TP. I'll put one of ours against ten of you fat old baggers.

A few years ago, a right wing extremist took his shotgun into a church and shot two people dead. He committed these murders because the victims were liberals – people who in his mind were destroying America. The gunman told investigators that he believed people like Michael Savage, Sean Hannity, and Bill O’Reilly when they tell their listeners that liberals want to destroy America. This story highlights just how dangerous the conservative media has become. Mike Papantonio talks about the influence that the media has over the public with Maria Armoudian, author of the new book “Kill The Messenger: The Media’s Role in the Fate of the World.”
It's christians like you that are the violent ones. This is all Fox and blogs like this fault.
What I really like about liberal fleabaggers is that every time they open their mouth they spew out complete and utter ignorance.
"Oh, and a daily shower/bath would be in order as well" They are going to need to get reconstructive surgery to just remove the filth off their bodies when this is over and done with, Christopher. LOL And yes sir, did not know whether to laugh or cry of the dumbing down of America by these people.
AP- I think I am dumber for even watching that video. LOL!
Chris J, what makes you think the Tea Party are a bunch of old pussies. Did you pick that up from Chris Mathews or something?
Thats pretty much the same mis-representation he love's to spew.
As for Jim David Adkisson, in all the legitimate news site I could find, there is no truth that he told investigators that Michael Savage, Sean Hannity, and Bill O’Reilly motivated him to go out and do this. (BTW: Bill O'Reilly is a registered independent and far from conservative)
Matter of fact, what I believe is liberal hacks like Mike Papantonio who said in the video "the effect of mass media and all the bad things that happen when we don't have control over that mass media" sparks some to take action to defend our country over liberal/progressive systematically wanting to circumvention of our constitution.
You want to blame the right, when some whole heartedly believe in what our country should still be, a free, constitutionally sound country.
Hi Mark!
You have the invasion of the imbeciles! Wow, they need to shut down the internet at the mental hospital these morons are currently residing at, and they need to take more meds and rest, hee hee!
Great post, and I hope that commie mayor gets an earful and eyeful of letters and that he's SUED! It's an awful double standard that is going on in MANY places....these filthy scums get away with murder, and incur no fees or charges, and the Tea Party was taxed and charged assembly fees, etc. I'm glad America is waking up!
Have a BOOOOOO ti-ful Weekend!
Hi Mark,
How is it that all these libs are here commenting? Are they too lazy to camp out on the streets?
Get off the net and out on the streets, liberal Bozos, where you belong, lol. Don't forget your winter parka and galoshes!
Bunni- I suggested on their facebook page that the Atlanta Tea Party shouldn't wait until spring to sue the Mayors office, because over time, some of the facts begin to fade and gives the Mayor time to figure out which judge to buy off. :)
Opus- The libs come and go from here, from time to time. It makes for a lively debate of their short comings of their intellectual thought process. I am sure once winter sets in, you'll see most of them on a permanent spring break in the warmer states. Thanks for your comment. :)
It seems as though OWS and democraticunderground have flagged our blogs for commenting on. I seen on OWS blog they mentioned both of our blogs in a comment.
democraticunderground needs to stay there....underground!
Found you and Bonsai from www.occupywallst.org . I had to see who wass pissing off these assholes. You all are doing great work to fry their asses.
