` :I concur with Will Beback and Xenophrenic that publicized racial slurs made by a TP founder are relevant and warrant brief inclusion given the media attention and political rhetoric over alleged TP racism.  This event received plenty of media coverage and sourcing, and actually triggered cancellations by political candidates scheduled to speak at the Springboro Tea Party rally.  It was in the article for 7-8 months until the push this past week to purge it from the article on the grounds its either irrelevant or violating undue weight and NPOV if we don't delete it.  If the real reason behind removing it is because it's ``offensive material,`` then it sounds like POV and taking offense is the real problem here.  Please take a step back and reconsider things.   `
