So what are your thought's on this?
Last month, Tea Party members gathered outside an ICNA (Islamic Circle of North America)-sponsored charity event held to raise money for women’s shelters and hunger relief, and hurled racist epithets and bewildering ethnocentric remarks at the American-Muslim families entering the Yorba Linda Community Center. Several members of congress even showed up to express their support for the protesters and their message.
The video is a bit long but worth watching. It literally made me sick to stomach.

It's disgusting. They should be ashamed of themselves. As for the elected officials, I only hope they get booted out next term.

I teared up watching this. Disgusting.
This is reminiscent of the videos from the civil rights movement. These "protesters" are revolting.

i really don't understand why people are still pro teabag party. They might as well be wrapped in white robes with burning torch in hand.

"Two Congressmen and a Councilwoman all were present to join the protesters and add to the vitriol. Congressman Ed Royce (R-40) told protesters to continue on with their hate-mongering and how "multiculturalism" was paralyzing America, and Congressman Gary Miller (R-42) egged the crowd on."

Re: So what are your thought's on this?
This is disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. This makes me think of dh aunt. They are muslim. They have lived in queens for 25+years. After 9/11 she was on a bus, going to work and people were throwing things at her. She got off the bus, and walked all the way home in tears. These ELECTED official, especially thst blonde chick should be ashamed of themselves. I am actaully embarrassed they are "Americans"

Did the Tea party go in a freakn time machine and go back 60 years etc? They are pulling us behind in the times, I understand that you are entitled to your own feelings but you are NOT entitled to be an outright racist, bully, just plain embarrassment.

That is disgusting. His poor aunt Did no one on the bus stick up for her? I would have smacked someone if I saw a person being treated that way

Nope, not one person. She said people looked embarrased and sad for her but were scared to say something. I was livid when she told us.

I know this is a little irrevelent for this post, but it shows how stupid these people are and it made me laugh:
From the NY Times: "A dozen cookies are put in front of a CEO, a Union member and a Tea Partier. The CEO takes 11. Then he tells the Tea Partier, "That union guy wants yours"

Re: So what are your thought's on this?
Okay I hope I dont get flamed for this, and if I do its ok.
I DONT agree with what they (the protesters) are doing, they way they are doing it. Its wrong.
Im an Egyptian Christian, my parents and husbabd were born in Egypt where 90% of the population is Muslim, we are the minority and we suffer. Our churches are burnt down, we cant get job, we are discriminated against for being Christians in a Muslim country. I'll give you a specific event. Jan 1st (new years) our coptic church filled with thousands for a new year celebration was bombed and 21 were killed, 100+ injured. Muslims in the street were screaming "allah w akbar" "god is great" now these are not "terrrorists" These were the neighbors, store owners, passers by.... regular everyday Muslims have hate towards Christians, non-muslims. SO please dont be naiive and think that "islam is a religion of peace" That is just what people say to be politically correct. Some Muslims are wonderful people, I know that, I experienced that, but the religion itself is not so wonderful or peaceful. Period.
Also, if you listen to the video on person was screaming "we dont want Sharia law".... Im sorry but thats a valid point. Again the WAY he iis doing it is wrong, but his point is right. Muslim leaders want Sharia law put into place AROUND THE WORLD. Its already in England!! Do YOU want to be judged in court on matters of the home, domestic issues, divoirce according to the QURAN? I dont think so. I think everyone would agree that they dont want that. But go listen to someone on youtube his name is Anjam Chowdry, this is his #1 goal. He has put it into place in England and his next goal is America. Its a real thing and its scary. My family came here to get the HE!! out of Sharia and all that garbage, just to have it here 50 years later?!? NO!
Anyway, I have a lot of other points but I wont get into it.
AGAIN just to recap, what the protesters are doing is wrong, muslims themselves can be great people. I am just not one of those people who are politically correct and blindly say islam is a religion of peace.
