Yes, got in the middle of one in Buenos Aires by accident. Big group.

I just started chanting along with them until I cleared the crowd.

None for me. I tend toward the libertarian right. Most right-leaning events are just fed entrapment events, so those are a no go for a multitude of reasons. I would go to an anti-war protest but those died when Democrats decided to just be neocons.

The college.

The president wanted to increase his own salary at the same time.

I went a Tea Party rally back in 2010 out of curiosity. The main thing I remember was seeing George Wallace Jr. pressing the flesh for votes.

Wallace was running for either Secretary of State or State Treasury, I don’t remember which. I wasn’t overly impressed that a political hack like Wallace — who made a political career out of running on his daddy’s name — glommed onto the “Tea Party” movement.

That a neocon hack like Marco Rubio was dubbed the “Crown Prince of the Tea Party” later sealed my animosity for the entire campaign. “Clown Prince of The NeoCons” would be more accurate.

No, but I watched on TV when Grady Judd closed those em effers down in Lakeland. I could have driven about 15 minutes to Lakeland and watched the show. I didn't because my Tundra is old, but not all scratched up and the violent left loves beating on vehicles.

In JUCO they suspended one our coaches. The entire team marched to the president’s office to demand that he be reinstated. Were told they’d pull scholarships. Protest ended quickly.

I was at the SCOTUS when Roe was overturned. But that was more a celebration.

I was at the Capitol on J6 too… but was not a participant

We once went to a Tea Party Tax Day Rally. Kinda like a big party atmosphere in the parking lot of the Sam Houston race track.

More recently I drove by a pathetic group of old white liberals protesting Trump and flipped them all off once I realized what they were bitching about.

Yes. I protested the Covid lockdowns and did so while I opened carried. Filmed some cops being aggressive towards some of my brethren, but luckily they are trained better than ICE agents.

I’ve learned to appreciate and be thankful for a ‘normal” life, with normal people, normal neighbors, normal friends and coworkers.


Truth to that. For all those that fall outside of those limits, I keep a safe distance.

My wife's circle of college friends are all libs. In person they are nice and we never bring up politics. At least they respect my wife's values. All of them have major issues. Family history of drug and alcohol abuse, feminism leading to a horrible relationship with husbands. Kids being indoctrinated. They are all on meds. No stability....can't handle a medical bill because they have no insurance. Little to no savings. Smokes dope in front of young children, who knows what else they do or the situations they are in.

I feel like I live in a bubble with being around only normal people with level headed values, middle of the road political views, no conflicts, priorities on raising family, saving for education, saving for retirement and long term investments. Enjoying life with school events, sports events, and vacations. We rarely talk politics, and when we do, its a very stable discussion.

I have never been to a protest of any sort, nor do I plan to ever do so. I can understand some protests, but when people make a career out of it, its a sign of being empty.

I went to a Tea Party Rally once but we didn’t burn, loot or kill anyone.

Walked by one in Philly this past July. At midnight. In city center. Protesting ICE. Damn bullhorns going off constantly with their chanting and raving

No. You’re a retarded loser if you protest, both legitimate protest and the violence and destruction liberals claim is protest.

They do nothing and they’re a complete waste of time.
