I hope, at the very least, the police acknowledge that nobody took a crap on their cars.

In the grand scheme of things, I am not sure if it was a big deal. I hope you are right.

I think Skeeter is right. This is a big deal because it's a milestone event in the patriot/Tea Party movement to restore our country.

It wasn't a huge event, but it was significant because our people crossed the line from simple peaceful assembly, over into active civil disobedience.

Now that that threshold has been crossed, the active and overt push back by the people will only grow stronger.

They don’t get it, do they? It’s not about the physical barricades Obama has had constructed. What happened yesterday was a state of mind...the FREEDOM of which this nation was founded on. Bought and paid for with the blood, sweat and tears of our Veterans. And you can’t put a fence around that!

I've never seen conservatives do anything on the scale as was done yesterday.

Me either, Have we about hit the tipping point? Thanks to Obama I don't have a car that will make it to DC, or I would be right there in the middle of this. I have had all I can take, and afford. The "givmedats" have taken all I have and then some.

My guess is the rats feel empowered with the WSJ/NBC poll from Friday. Imagine if they win the house on 2014. The repubs might as well take a 2 year vacation. Their arrogance, (rats), will know no bounds.

Vets protested and camped out in DC in the 20’s. Gen. McArthur rousted them out...some died. Eisenhower was involved, as I remember it.

This is a dry run.

The law enforcement involved are being watched and evaluated to see how they are going to react to a full blown martial law situation.

Are these guys willing to obey orders against an unarmed, and basically innocent population?

Time will tell, and people are taking notes.

Agree. Who can get an emergency injunction from a Court to prohibit the barrycade iron curtains??? They are obviously prohibiting free speech and free association. They cost more to barrycade than to leave open, in direct contravention of the Anti-Deficiency Act. He has played his games with us long enough — on HIS terms, ordering barrycades put up with no legal authority but his own say so. There has to be a judge to issue an injunction or restraining order!

Anything to keep the public focused on barriers instead of the train-wreck of ObamaCare. The Chicago Mafia is a master of distraction.

And most people are masters of walking while chewing gum at the same time, even LIVs.

They should start building a barrycade around the spite house.

A gallow would be more in order at this point.

They should have kept those barricades or at least have the truckers ship them out of DC. Perhaps send it to LA and barricade Hollyweird.

I was happy to see the vets, bikers, truckers, and concerned citizens who did not cower.

We are in an internal Cold War.

It will get interesting.

“..., what rationale was used to pile them up outside the palace fence, and not to heave them right over the fence onto the front lawn....”

Because piling them up IN FRONT of the fence is Peaceful Protest.

Heaving them OVER the fence is an attack and an act of violence. Especially to nervous LEOs who are already in ready-to-go mode.

Actions, like words, mean things.

Good question.

I meant to go back and get a close-up photo, but got distracted.

I believe that was the back of the Secret Service car.

Perfect Metaphor of the Obama Regime’s (”let them eat cake”) attitude toward “We the People.”

Equivalent to giving us the finger—with which Obama has considerable experience.

Interesting, too, that Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged” revolved around interstate railroad and failing infrastructure. Such that a metallic alloy developed for rail-construction threatened to topple the government regulatory stranglehold.

Why do progressives champion the railroad?

I was wondering the same. Being they are aimed to the side they are obviously meant to scan parked traffic or traffic as they pass the squad. Not sure at all what it’s meant to look for. Radiation or explosive detection? Doesn’t look like a license plate reader as those are usually mounted on the roof.
