When the Tea Party held their rallies, they were required to get permits and put up bonds.
Now we know why the same thing was not required of the Occupy movement.

I was under the old-fashion belief that the federal government was supposed to remain neutral in political debates. Elected officeholders and political appointees are understood to be biased to the president. Civil servants are supposed to be non-political. I guess that changed in the Obama Administration?

The Obama administration told law enforcement authorities to go easy on Occupy Wall Street protesters, even though they were violating local laws, according to documents obtained by watchdog group Judicial Watch.
Emails from the General Services Administration show that the federal agency, acting on orders from the White House, told federal law enforcement authorities in Portland, Ore., not to enforce curfews on protesters camped out on federal property. JudicialWatch.org obtained the emails through a Freedom of Information Act request lodged last year.
