Was the Boston Tea Party patriotic?

"There’s a lot of conservatives on social media who say that any violence or aggression at all is unacceptable, regardless of the circumstances. I’m glad Sam Adams, Thomas Paine — the actual Tea Party guys, the men at Lexington and Concord — didn’t feel that way."

Exactly! This sounds like another short-sighted commentary from someone who hasn’t been on the other side of marginalization.

We’re the American Revolutionaries patriotic? They sure as hell used violence didn’t they?

The post info is just wrong.

Our fathers would have done much more than they die.

Fight for USA, or your shall surely perish.

Was the storming of the Bastille patriotic? How far does the government need to go before violence is patriotic? I’d say the lack of a venue for Americans to adjudicate the legality of an election is the worst lack of representation that the country has ever faced. Far more egregious than the taxation issues that led to the Boston Tea Party.

According to the preening feckless pukes, nope.
