DHS SENDS IN CHOPPER to Intimidate Tea Party Protesters in LA
Gateway Pundit ^ | May 22, 2013 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 05/22/2013 5:18:20 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

ARMED DHS GUARDS greeted St. Louis Tea Party protesters at the Town and Country IRS office on Tuesday.

Around 300 protesters turned out anyway.

DHS parked their vehicles right outside the IRS office just in case the Tea Party protesters got crazy and violent.

But the DHS intimidation was not isolated to St. Louis.

In Los Angeles DHS put a chopper in the air and told Tea Party protesters they could not be on federal property.

They had to move away from the building.

This report came from a Tea Party protester in California.

Many of our 300 tea party folks were approached immediately by Homeland Security and told they could not be on federal property. My lawyer told me as long as I didn’t block passage we were OK. Many Homeland Security trucks and a helicopter above us scared many patriots so most of group went to public side walk to rally.

However, I stayed at IRS entrance telling Homeland Security it is my right to be there.

Then as I was leaving carrying my sign a woman jumped out of her car in IRS parking lot and started threatening me, “I am with ICE!”

To which I replied, “I am with Laguna Patriots!”(continued)

Sounds like they were begging for trouble.

Ya know, one day they just may get what they are asking for.

“I’m with vodka. Shaken or stirred?”

Interesting. I was under the impression that "federal" property belonged to us, the people, but apparently America has been fundamentally transformed - as promised.

0 is starting to show his true colors and reveal his hand and true purpose for setting up his brown shirt army. We can add this to his list of scandals as well. 0 is not citizen friendly.

That may be the only thing he ever told the truth about.

The way things are going, the DHS is going to be Obama’s not-so-secret version of the Gestapo .... then again, maybe he has ‘secret police’ in addition to DHS. The Obama administration & associated thugs/complicit, enabling media doesn’t bat an eye at standing by doing nothing while Americans are killed, ignoring the law and Constitution, threatening and intimidating, stealing elections, having an enemies list, bugging & spying in violation of the law, and lying every time their lips move, etc. ..... and the Left wonders why Americans are buying guns. Go figure. /s

The DHS has said we are right-wing terrorists. First the IRS, now the DHS. Next the same as Boston. Decent people aren’t supposed to have opinions and express them. Only the Occupiers.

Contrast this DHS show of force with that of any of the Occupy protest.

And don’t forget the states of Wisconsin and Michigan, when the peoples representatives were voting to take action regarding public employee unions.

the union goons stormed the capital buildings, beat people up and there were reports that the police in some instances stood aside.
