Yes but democrats got no photo opts either. If they can sneak cameras in North Korea they probably can this too.

Why are these guys all going to supermarkets to talk about healthcare?

Going out and organizing the neighborhoods?

It’s so ACORN-like

exactly, if we disrupt (ask legitimate questions) enough, they can not use the meeting as propaganda. Our group is definitely going to be more stealthy with their cameras.

I was told that the “leader” at our local June 6th “Organizing for America” meeting would call security if I persisted in asking who was sponsoring the health care bill.

I told her, “Please do, I’ve never been arrested.” She answered my question - she didn’t know who was carrying the bill.

Passive aggressive - civil disobedience and quietly disrespectful - and thrilled to be arrested for it should be our theme.

Someone should have quoted Reagan: “I’m paying for this microphone!”

They don’t have the right to tell us not to bring cameras. It is a public event.

Exactly. If they react to cameras in the meeting, demand to know by what authority are they banning cameras in a public assembly. If they come back with some lame response, ask them if they are willing to use that as their defense in a court of law.

So collect up everyone you can and vote these people out of office. You have one year to get the job done.

The ACORN child in the Whitehouse started it and his mindless spineless Democrats are following his marching orders.

Would they let signs in the meeting? If so, write your comment or question on your sign and hold it up the entire time. Put white tape over your mouths. Get a bunch of people to do this and get pictures of it. Send pictures to Drudge, Hannity, Beck, your local paper, GOP House leaders.

If there is someone who wouldn’t be greatly inconvenienced by being arrested (unemployed or retired, e.g.), have them civilly continue to ask questions. Get video by whatever means. If they are arrested or escorted out, keep the video rolling. Send video to the above as well.

The word has to get out that free speech is being stomped on.

This is nothing but Fascism, Nazi-style.

So? Until conservatives adopt ACORN tactics they will be shut-out. Get used to it.

Good for you.

You need to speak in a language the opposition understands.

And that is just what we need. I am in a securely red state so all of my reps are against it. I would love to go to Massachusetts and be led away in handcuffs for this noble cause!

When census times comes, just make sure you state that no one lives at your house.

Drain blue states of Congressional power.

Because it's private property, and anyone who refuses to leave at request of the owner can be arrested for trespassing. Easier to shut down dissent with that option at your disposal.
