Tea Party
Unite at the Arizona Tea Party! It is time to act. Please comment if you will be attending. If it is possible, we will be establishing a meeting point.
The government continues to spend hand over fist, taking a bigger and bigger slice of our money and our children’s and grandchildren’s future earnings. Americans are starting to understand that these huge special interest projects and programs create severe economic burdens on American families which threaten their livelihood now and into the future.
The time has come to stand up and be heard. We are simply asking that every taxpaying American citizen join the movement to make our voices be heard. Help us make this the nation's best and largest tea party protest on Wednesday, April 15th.
Rule for the Tax Day Tea Party:
* No violence, no threats, no profanity, no racism, no law-breaking.
* Law enforcement officers must be treated with respect.
* Stay out of the street at all times, except when using a crosswalk with the traffic light.
* Do not block the sidewalk to pedestrian traffic. Keep your signs from hanging over into the street.
* Do not block the signs of, nor get within 10 feet of, our opponents. Do not interfere with any media coverage of them. Our First Amendment rights are their rights, too.
* Any arguments should be at 10 feet away to avoid conflict arising from passions on both sides. If you choose to get close to them physically, do so in friendship as fellow Americans only.
* Do not give the middle finger, call people jerks, tell them to go home or get a job.
* Take the high road. Be civil.

Join Us! - VISITORS, READ THIS FIRST
Inspired by Glenn Beck's 9-12 Project, I have started this group to unite with fellow Arizonans in an effort to refocus on the principles and values which created the United States of America, and to make a positive, liberty focused impact on our state and country.
If AFTER reading Glenn's 9 principles and 12 values (below), you find yourself in agreement with most or all of them, please join the Arizona Sons of Liberty and register on this site.
9 Principles
1. America Is Good.
2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.
God “The propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the external rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained.” from George Washington’s first Inaugural address.
3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.
Honesty “I hope that I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider to be the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.” George Washington
4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.
Marriage/Family “It is in the love of one’s family only that heartfelt happiness is known. By a law of our nature, we cannot be happy without the endearing connections of a family.” Thomas Jefferson
5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.
Justice “I deem one of the essential principles of our government… equal and exact justice to all men of whatever state or persuasion, religious or political.” Thomas Jefferson
6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.
Life, Liberty, & The Pursuit of Happiness “Everyone has a natural right to choose that vocation in life which he thinks most likely to give him comfortable subsistence.” Thomas Jefferson
7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.
Charity “It is not everyone who asketh that deserveth charity; all however, are worth of the inquiry or the deserving may suffer.” George Washington
8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.
On your right to disagree “In a free and republican government, you cannot restrain the voice of the multitude; every man will speak as he thinks, or more properly without thinking.” George Washington
9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.
Who works for whom? “I consider the people who constitute a society or a nation as the source of all authority in that nation.” Thomas Jefferson
12 Values
* Honesty
* Reverence
* Hope
* Thrift
* Humility
* Charity
* Sincerity
* Moderation
* Hard Work
* Courage
* Personal Responsibility
* Gratitude
