Protesters at Supreme Court: 'We will not comply' | The Daily Caller: WASHINGTON — The shocked tea partiers who gathered outside the Supreme Court on Thursday to hear the court’s ruling on President Barack Obama’s health care reform law struck a defiant tone immediately after it was announced that that the law will be upheld.
“A message to the IRS,” Tea Party Patriots national coordinator Keli Carender of Seattle screamed into a microphone. “We will not comply with this unconstitutional tax. So you might as well just come over and get me now. Because I ain’t paying it.”
The crowd began to chant, “We will not comply, we will not comply.”
Others told The Daily Caller that they were shocked that the justices upheld the individual health insurance mandate as a tax law. Tea Party Nation founder Judson Phillips, carrying a ball in his hands, expressed disappointment.
“I brought a football to spike, but I don’t think I’m going to need to now,” he told TheDC.
