Introduction: Tea Party Movement

The Tea Party movement is a conservative political movement in the United States that grew throughout 2009 into a series of locally and nationally coordinated protests. The Tea Party staged a series of protests across the United States that focused on smaller government, fiscal responsibility, individual freedoms and upholding a conservative view of the Constitution. The protests were partially in response to several Federal laws: the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, and a series of healthcare reform bills. The name "Tea Party" refers to the Boston Tea Party of 1773 when American colonists destroyed British tea rather than paying what they considered a tax that violated their right to "No Taxation without Representation. In the 2010 Congressional elections, the Tea Party became a recognized faction of the Republican political party, and successfully ran several conservative Congressional candidates under its name.

Several Tea Party flags have been reported being seen at Tea Party rallies; one a modified "Betsy Ross" flag with a Roman Numeral II placed in the center of the 13-Star pattern representing the "Second American Revolution," another, less seen, but reported was a variant slightly reminiscent of a Confederate States of America flag. Reportability, in Texas, the Tea Party likes the Gonzales "Come and Take It" flag, but the flag most popular, however, hands down, is the modern replica of the Gadsden Flag showing a coiled rattle-snake with 13 rattles on a yellow background with the black lettered motto "Don't Thread On Me," although the Culpeper Minute Men Flag has also been reported.
