The symbols of revolution were on full display.
There was the famous Colonial flag with a coiled rattlesnake and the words "Don't Tread on Me."
Another early American flag showed 13 stars arranged in a circle.
And then there were the tea bags hung from the brims of people's hats and ears.

"You are called to a new revolution today," conservative talk radio host Gary Sutton, of York's WSBA-910, told the crowd, estimated to have numbered around 1,000 by the State Capitol Police.
"This is about right and wrong," Sutton said.
"A government that is big enough to give you freedom is big enough to take it away," state Sen. Mike Folmer (R-48th District) told the protesters.
