Capitol Police Voice Message to Tea Party: ‘You Can Not Join Other Groups in Other Areas’

This from Breitbart:

On Wednesday morning at 9:28 am Capitol Hill Police Officer Sandra Brown left a voice message for Kevin Mooneyhan, Deputy Executive Director of the Tea Party Patriots, the group holding a rally at noon Wednesday on the West Lawn of the Capitol. In the message, Officer Brown told Mr. Mooneyhan that attendees of the Tea Party Patriots rally on the West Lawn were prohibited from attending Congressman Steve King’s (R-IA) immigration event on the East Lawn, due to the terms of the Tea Party Patriots permit.

There was only one problem with Officer Brown’s directive. Individual citizens attending either event are not bound by the terms of the permits issued by the sponsoring organization. As individual citizens, they have the right to attend the properly permitted Tea Party Patriots rally, as well as the immigration event sponsored by a sitting member of the House of Representatives, Congressman King.
