Hmm...wonder why?

Afraid they’ll attract the stern attention of Washington, D.C.? Or reluctant to spend the money to deploy police, since most small towns can’t afford to have large crowds go rampaging through town?

This last is a possibility, especially if the libtards show up to try and cause trouble, get my drift?

Down on the corner out in the streets there a tea party going on that just can’t be beat.Poor boys on the corner holding up their signs saying these high taxes out to be a crime. Where’s John F. and CCR when you need them.

Some things don't change in Mississippi. In 1963, white trash racist Democrats deny civil rights to a group of people...fast forward to 2009, same type of trash racist redneck backwards yahoo, spittle-out-of-the-mouth, unibrowed democrats deny the same thing.

Suggestion to Tea Partiers: March onto the City Hall, and when they arrest you, sing "We Shall Overcome".

Tea Party in 2009 treated like colored folk in the 1960's.

Mississippi burning?

Doesn’t appear that anybody pinged the MS folks to this one yet.

Let the polidiots running Greenwood hear from you.

Ah, the Delta has changed. Years ago this area would have been holding the first tea parties. Now, as someone has pointed out here, the population statistics have changed.

Hopefully, the folks in Greenwood will still find a good place to meet if city hall won’t let them gather there. How about a march in the newly-revived downtown area?

Oh, the irony. The people running Greenwood nowadays are the folks who were denied their right to protest Jim Crow laws by those 1963 ordinances.

Greenwood is SirKit's hometown, and in 1963, it was the all white Citizens Council that, for the most part, ran the town. My how things have changed, but have stayed the same. Say hello to the new boss, same as the old boss.

My hubby, SirKit was wondering if y’all ended up having the Tea Party in Greenwood.
