Ok so two days ago, I went to a "Tea Party" where people like my family revolted against the taxes that are being raised. I had a lot of fun and my siblings had fun as well. We all ahd made posters and listened to the people who gave speeches. We even saw some of our friends there.
I was happy that so many people went. I heard a couple hundrend came. There was a live stream tv to www.overtaxedhawaii.com and the local news stations were there too.
The best sign that I saw that wasn't ours was the acronym for Obama and it was One Big Ass Mistake America. It was funny.
The best two signs that my family and I made were for my baby sister, who is seven, and my second oldest youngest sister, who is 14. My baby sisters sign was At 7 and already in debt. My 14 year old sisters poster said "My American Heroes" and had the founding fathers on it.
Some people took pictures of our signs. I felt weird. There was also an open mic for whomever wanted to say something. I ended up going, scared out of my mind. But I said something and got a big applause because of it.
I hope we're going to go back on May 8 to reprotest.
