Arkansas Tea Party Animals At It Again

For those looking to mark the July 4 holiday with a patriotic hoisting of a “Don’t Tread on Me” flag, look no further: There will probably be another Arkansas Tea Party demonstration in a community near you.

If you haven’t had enough, here are some resources with events around the state for the July 4 holiday. (If I’ve missed any send me the link or drop a note in the comments section):

Arkansas Tea Party Inc. lists three events

Tea Party Patriots lists nine events

Earlier this month, I wrote a lengthy guest perspective piece for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette on the Tea Party phenomenon in Arkansas, which includes a consideration of the challenges the movement will face in making the jump into a legitimate political force. It was “a very nice little story,” according to my mother.
