9. These signs prove it's not about taxes
It's about evil, malicious fuckwits who finally got their day to slander a good man and send their bigoted message of hate across the nation under the facade of taxes.

16. See how spelling out sound effects makes a sign more special and appealing?
WHAM! From the majority that elected the better man President of all these United States! *Staring at the face of scornful ignorance*

4. Being considered property = paying 15% of your income.
Oh yes, I definitely see the comparison.

:eyes:

These teabaggers have a point concerning the bailouts and debt to future generations, but they just look petty and foolish with this shit. They are allowing themselves to be played by this nation's wealthy.

Pathetic.

5. That they are so willing to make signs like these...
Suggests that they are either truly ignorent of racial history in the United States, or that they themselves carry their own racist baggage. Either way, it's really, really not good.

I guess in a way though it can be good for society as a whole. Scenes like these remind us that we have an awful lot of work to do.

7. I generally prefer to see people's ignorance out in the open.
Scenes like this should help shut up the people who think that President Obama's election has negated the need for things like affirmative action.

10. Tax slavery...yeah, right...
What I have to wonder is what response these tea bagger folks'd give if you asked 'em what their solution would be? I mean some of 'em are against income tax and say it's unconstitutional (in spite of the 16th Amendment) so how would they propose paying for, say, infrastructural upgrades like the building of the Interstate highways, bridges, new power stations, river levies, road repairs, new railroads, inprovements to harbors, and such? Asking for no taxes is asking to live in a third world nation.

These tea bagger types have no legitimate case here. It's all about sour grapes from November and the far right wing trying to fake an issue with taxes to make their whining seem relevant. Take it from me, I'm a reformed Freeper.

Hello to DU, by the way.

13. Signs like this are extremely offensive
Edited on Thu Apr-16-09 12:16 AM by LiberalPersona
compared to the hardships that real slaves had to live through.
If they had to pay even 90% of their income as taxes their lives would still be a thousand times better than a slave's life was.

14. What a fucking cry-baby.
Jesus fucking Christ. Taxes are not slavery and they are not punishment. These stupid fucks don't have any message besides "WAAAHHHHAAAHHH!!!! I dont like paying taxes! WAAAAHHHHH!!! I don't like Obama and the Democrats!!!"

They are fucking pathetic.
