I'm pleased that I have not heard about any inappropriate signs among the counter protesters. I hope they continue to maintain respectability. Lots of Tea Partiers out there, normally a well behaved group of folks.

Good. Condemnation of such is good. Agree and for those who claim freedom of speech...there is freedom of speech and then common sense and instigating to possible cause violent action against others...the leaders of these protest should become leaders and put a stop to those provocations and if they are teachers, possible pictures of the ones carrying these type of signs to be publicly published. Let them then try to explain their actions to their fellows and if teaching the older children, higher grades, have them explain their actions to their classes, with the parents of those kids invited to observe and to comment on the actions. Bet the signs disappear quickly. |

Dropkick Murphys is an Irish American Celtic punk/hardcore punk band formed in Quincy, Massachusetts. First playing together in the basement of a friend's barbershop, they blended traditional Irish folk rock and punk rock known as Celtic punk. Their influences include Stiff Little Fingers, The Pogues, The Clash, Thin Lizzy, The Dubliners, and the Swingin' Utters. The band has made a name for itself and built a following as a result of their extensive touring all over the world, and their St. Patrick's Day weekend shows, which are held in and around Boston. The group is also famous for their patronage of the Boston Red Sox and Bruins. Political CausesDropkick Murphys have been known for supporting working class and union causes, and have a strong relationship with the AFL-CIO. The band has said that they are all Democrats, and during the 2004 United States presidential election were part of Punkvoter, a political activist group dedicated to defeating George W. Bush. That year they also appeared on the Rock Against Bush, Vol. 2 compilation contributing the song "We Got the Power". On February 22nd, 2011, in support of Wisconsin workers' rights, the band released their song "Take 'Em Down" from the album "Going Out In Style" on their website along with creating a limited edition "Take 'Em Down" t-shirt which will benefit the Workers’ Rights Emergency Response Fund. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dropkick_MurphysThis must all be St. Patrick's fault. |
