Tax Day Tea Party Results, Reactions

The Tax Day Tea Party can definitely be described as a success. Thousands of people showed up in cities and towns all over America with one message: We will not stand for irresponsible spending in Washington, especially when it's on our (and our children's) dime.

Reports show some of the largest protest turnouts were in Sacramento (25,000), Atlanta (20,000), Houston (15,000) and New York City (12,000). A few other cities had around 10,000 attendants, and dozens of others had a several thousand. Altogether, there were probably over 300,000 people demonstrating on Tax Day. Over 200,000 protesters were reported by people on the ground, but we know that not all demonstrations have been recorded yet.

Rural towns also came out to show there support with hundreds of people. Hundreds may not sound like much for a protest, but when you consider that the towns' populations aren't very high, they turn out to be a pretty large percentage of the population.

Pictures from the protests show how motivated people were to get out and make sure their voices were heard. The signs and numbers of people made a real statement that will be hard for the government to ignore.

Not only did the protests send a message to Washington, a protest in Chicago also showed how incredibly biased the reporters are on CNN. A YouTube video shows a segment where a CNN reporter is obviously trying to put down the protesters. What happened to journalists being fair and balanced?

I've been taking a lot of photos lately for a new ebay store that my sister wants to put up. Considering I just began using LightRoom a few weeks ago, I'm still relatively new to getting it to work at its full potential for what I need. This will certainly help!
