At first I thought a Tea Party was about angry citizens. That perception kept me away from meetings. The only experience I previously had was at an outdoor event last year on April 15th at the Veterans Blvd and Causeway Intersection in Metairie, LA. The crowd was large and people vented their frustration about our US Government running away from its sworn Oath uphold the constitution.
Now after recently attending a few meetings I am more open to the message and the people are nice ordinary citizens looking to find a peaceful solution to our country's growing debt and other issues like corrupt Politicians greedily taking tax dollars for personal gain. If you read the newspaper, you literally get one a day, and you begin to think who is next or who do we trust. I say "We the People" need to trust our individual freedoms.
