Why charge patriots $10,000 for permits, portable toilets, police presence and emergency personnel for three rallies held at the same plaza where the Occupy Richmond squatters set up their camp? The group also had to purchase a $1 million insurance policy.

“When we were applying for our permits, did the city say, ‘Oh never mind, we’re children of the 60s, we believe in the First Amendment’? No, they didn’t tell us that,” she said. “We’re almost being punished for following the law. We do have a problem when others are protesting in the same exact park and they don’t have to follow the same rules.”
Calls and emails made by CBS Washington to “Occupy Richmond” officials and Jones’ office seeking comment were not immediately returned.

In each of those cities where the Occupy Forces have not paid for permits and extra police and toilets, but other groups have, they should be required to pay.
The same thing happened in Boston.

It will be interesting to see if the media follow up on these disparities.
Don't hold your breath. I'm not sure why yet, but the media seem to think this is a plus for Obama.
What's sauce for the goose is, apparently, NOT sauce for the gander....if the "gander" is a leftist idealogical group.

I doubt that those cities will ever see the money for permits, police protection, trash pick up, toilets, etc. So we will all have to pay for these outlaws to whine and pout.
Murray sez:
The people of these cities that are providing free services to these "squatters" are either mostly liberal or just plain stupid. Hmmmm, perhaps both apply!
I was not aware that pepper spray and beatings were considered forms of protection.
I am glad you all obeyed the law and obtained your permits but the tea party is only a disguise for for the GOP. Dont pretend to be something you are not. Do you even know who Ron Paul is? open your eyes, stop watching fox news and listen to Rush/Sean/idiots.
Also,please realize that the government, dems and reps alike, had duped you into thinking they are on your side. check out how congresses retirement plans did over the past few years compared to yours. read about the Glass-Steagall act.
"I am glad you all obeyed the law and obtained your permits but the tea party is only a disguise for for the GOP."
Although that's not true, let's say it is. Is it illegal to be the GOP--you want only one lawless, rioting, window smashing, Obamaville creating party on the books?
I hope before I go to my grave, a lefty commenter can come up with something more original than accusing me of watching Fox. I just watched an excellent interview with a Democrat on Fox. He was intelligent, balanced, handsome, and very informative. Should I discount him because I saw him on Fox?
And what am I pretending to be? I am a Republican, but was a Democrat for 40 years. In fact, I recently voted for a Democrat in a local election because he was the best candidate. And you? And being a Republican disqualifies me to have an opinion or post a news story because it makes you crazy that your guys are out of control? You want everyone to have one government backed news source?
