Raleigh Tea Party

Below is amazing, candid, man-on-the-street video from the Raleigh, NC, Tea Party/Tax Protest on April 15, 2009.

Rumor has it that in the Greensboro/High Point/Winston-Salem area there were in excess of 2,500 in attendance at similar protests.

Highlights:

Young girl holding protest sign: "I'll pay my taxes AFTER I am nominated for cabinet" (1:00).

Dog wearing protest sign: "Fleeced by the IRS" (1:10).

Teenage girls holding a sign: "Money only grows on ACORN trees." and "Don't Tread on Me" flag (Gadsden battle flag).

Protest sign: "Liberty: All the Stimulus We Need" (2:28).

Businessman holding sign: "I am Not Your ATM" (3:51).

African-American woman sitting at book table with titles like, Obama: Why Black America Should Have Doubts, and Why The Conservative Mind Matters. (4:04).

Gadsden flags fly throughout, talk radio fans will hear a couple of familiar voices, and even those who are not gathered in protest seem to agree with the protest, judging from the car horns sounding.

There are four additional videos available on Youtube. Thanks to krb3141 for letting us borrow his videos. See the link below the video to click through to his page and view the remaining videos.
