I think you are mis-interpreting my question. I am not equating the OWS with the Tea party. Although I might like to see the reaction if a million rifle toting tea party members march down the street.

My question is overall, at what point do citizens give up their petition to the government for redress of grievances, When the government tells them to go home? Then if that is the case, then the citizens do not have the right to petition for redress. See my point here? It has nothing to do with moral equivalency of tea party and ows. Take your head out of your suitcase and quit thinking red/blue. Both political parties are the problem and neither one of them is the solution.

Do you think if you pull the handle for red party, or blue party, then magically things will be better? Is Gingrich, Cain, Bachman, Perry, Paul, or any of them really going to get rid of government agencies? No.

I’ll bet you a tasty soda drink that come 2014, it will be the same-o, same-o, just a different group of people holding the cocktail parties in Washington.

With that in mind, look at my question again, at what point does the citizenry obey/disobey the government when it tells you to disperse and that your petition will not ever be heard.

At the point when multiples of millions of armed American citizens believe that death is equal to or better than living with whatever the conditions are that cause that belief.

We ain't there...yet.
