Silent No More

On April 15, 2009, I attended a Tax Day TEA Party rally in our small, Midwestern city of 20,000 people. My personal estimate is that there were roughly 100 people in attendance—not bad for a Wednesday evening. Unfortunately, I did not take any photos—I’m still new at this whole protest “thing”.

In fact, this was my first protest. And I resent strongly any implication that the TEA Party movement is anything other than a grass-roots movement.

My whole life, I have been part of the “silent majority”. Well, I will be silent no more.

I am afraid that the time is fast approaching when we will all need to choose a side. As for myself, I choose liberty and freedom over the soft tyranny of false choices.
