I attended the San Jose CA Tea Party on 4-15-09, and wanted to share a few photos with you. They really looked like a very dangerous group.

    An excellent photo demonstrating why you should not procreate while on drugs.

    Haha... that statement cracked me up for some reason. That was a full belly laugh you got out of me.

    Great photos, Sam... Scary looking bunch.

    That first one works particularly well. The flag makes a great backdrop. Too bad about the mic stand, but that's life. I might try to get slightly better blacks.

    I went to the Boston Tea Party, and though I have to disclose that I don't agree with the ideas behind these demonstrations, I was surprised by how good natured the event was. People are angry about paying taxes, but not really angry at other people. This might be a reflection of the organizer, Michael Graham, a local talk show host, who is sort of in the P. J. O'Rourke mold, frankly an entertainer first.
    If not now, when?

    I gotta admit I really don't understand why people AREN'T upset with how much we're paying in taxes, how much of it is wasted, how in debt the federal government is. If I had known of an Austin tea party in advance I would have went.

    As per the photos in the thread goes the first was good, but from a PJ standpoint I don't feel I got a good sense of the total event. And that is what you want to get, a sense of the story of the day. The other thread with the black-and-white conversions and selective color was a good story telling job by contrast.
