Tea party attendees and the loonies

Why is that the tea parties were peaceful and the loonies protesting in Washington this weekend rioted and caused property damage with some arrested. Has it something to do with party affiliation? Smiling

I believe it had more to do with age than anything else. The loonies were young anarchists with all of the accompanying foolishness, while the tea party crowd was older, wiser, and much less agile, though no less self-righteous.

Respect

It has more to do with respect. Tea Party attendees and those who understand the Constitution and why our country has been so successful up to now, respect the rule of law.

Tea vs the "Loonies"

It's probably because the TEA people realize that they would end up paying for any damage they created. The "loonies" still think somebody else picks up the tab for everything. Oh...that would be those TEA people.
