by lauren
A group of activists "infiltrated" the public Tea Party gathering in San Francisco's Union Square last Thursday, April 15th.

§Some hilarity ensues

Tea Party protesters were filming and taking photos of the small, clearly out-numbered group of counter-protesters who were at the time only standing in a cluster. One woman went to get a police officer, stating to a counter-protester that smoking in Union Square was illegal. The officer approached the group, but did not take any action. (Author is unaware of the legality or otherwise of smoking outside in Union Square...)

She was a terrible writer.

I tried to review a lot of the posts in both liberal and right wing media to see what happened in Union Square, but yours gives some of the best insight! PS Love your comment on Ayn Rand.
