Quote:
Even so, why does a Tea Party protest rate a visible show of federal force?

It does, only insofar as it is regarded that someone who seeks to limit the reach and grasp of our central government is now considered treasonous and therefore dangerous. As best I can tell, there has not been a single act of violence committed by a Tea Party member at any of their demonstrations. Contrast that with the various Occupy Wall Street protests.
In other words, a political ideology is rapidly being seen as a criminal enterprise by those who run our government.
