GOP governor violates right to peaceful assembly?

[Guns Guns Guns]

I notice that even Legion's vaunted Google prowess has produced no event where the TEA Party protesters "occupied" a park without a permit for any period of time that would merit an arrest, and that Rootbeer has nothing that he can produce that is even slightly equivalent. He has ignored places like Denver where Democrats have already done this to produce this rubbish about one state among many where this was done. He pretends there is some equivalence to how the TEA Party participants conduct themselves when compared to the occupiers. I've simply asked for one thing. Where is the equivalent activity by the TEA Party participants? If you can produce it we can compare, and see if any Democrat Governor should have arrested some of them for doing something illegal...

You've simply moved the goal posts in an attempt to use false equivalency.

First, you couldn't "recall the TEA Party participants staying overnight at any of their venues"

I don't recall the TEA Party participants staying overnight at any of their venues.

Then you crept a little farther...

Interesting. So you are saying that TEA Party members illegally stayed overnight at the parks? My bet is you would have 'notified' us of those 'lawbreakers' as soon as you found it... Tell me... Do you care when you bathe in hypocrisy?

Next, you added "without permit"...

Can you show me where they stayed without permit in any of the parks? If you can show me an equivalent activity taken by the TEA Party events then we can compare apples to apples, at this point there is zero evidence that the TEA Party events ever participated in an equivalent activity.

Finally, realizing (because at heart, you are a rational, honest person) how far out on a limb you've gone, you resort to calling me "Legion", as if that's relevant, somehow.

I'm the one who's asked for one thing, and my request hasn't changed.

Post a link to unconstitutional activity against protests and I'll condemn it.

Your move.

No, I have merely brought the discussion back to the original comparison you brought to the table.

LOL.

Okay. The national reporting of the event being cleared out of the park in Civic Center in Denver wasn't enough for Rootbeer to note it.

I saw reports on CNN, on FOX, even on MSNBC... But Rootbeer waits until a Republican does the same thing before suddenly "finding" his outrage...

Then when I note the false equivalence, and ask some questions to show that it was false equivalence he tries to obfuscate.

Where is that stupid image that he posts all the time?

Anyway,

I'll ask once more, now that I've shown that Democrat Governors also arrest occupiers...

Can you produce one TEA Party event that they participated in equivalent activity? Activities which are notably accurately described here:

Occupiers showed up without permits to stay in parks with curfews, they brought none of the stuff that would be required for large gatherings with permits, such as porta-potties, and tried to build permanent structures (see 'turbo-dome' in the Denver protest), tapping into the electricity illegally (that is actually a big one, not just protesting without a permit)...

Now, tell me where the TEA Party events ever did these things. If you can find a few we'll have some equivalence and then we can hold a conversation comparing apples to apples.

What "comparison"? I stated that I don't recall Obama instituting a curfew on the Teabaggers. and that it seems like the Party With No Heart (and no brains) is OK with trashing the Constitution to defend the actions of the richest 1%...

So far, you have changed the venue to Denver and attempted to change the qualifiers on your original statement several times. Now you want to claim I said that Teabaggers and Occupiers are the same, somehow.

How many times did I ask for that link before you posted it? Now that you have, I condemn the actions of Governor Hickenlooper. BTW, you said the Mayor of Denver was involved, too, and I didn't see that in the article you linked.

Where is that stupid image that he posts all the time?

You mean this one?

Nope, because I didn't. You also seem to think I'm a Democrat. I'm not.

So you're OK with breaking up protests on the grounds that people don't have permits to sleep overnight in parks?

You failed to note one point in the OP - the GOP Governor of Tennesee made up a curfew, he didn't order police to enforce an existing one - and a judge dismissed all the warrants.

Are you and your fellow Teabaggers jealous because the Occupiers are a genuine grass-roots movement with staying power?
