We had an excellent turnout in beautiful weather. I was surprised by how many people showed up. For a city of 80,000 in an area that votes liberal, I was expecting a few dozen, but we had hundreds at least, and I heard some people say they thought we had at least 1,000 show up and many cars were honking and waving as they drove by. While there I got to talking with a guy who was from Russia. He said that he left Russia to escape Communism and now our government is trying to bring it here. He had a very interesting question: "Where am I going to go now? The moon?"
This is a picture of the guy that led the demonstration.
This is a friend that we ran into. I love his sign.
The radio station KUIK AM 1360 was on hand, broadcasting live during the entire demonstration. If you're ever in the Tualatin Valley, tune in to their station and take a listen. Kudos to KUIK for their support!

I love that line!
Hey good job. I was about 20 minutes late but I made it there. Don’t see myself in the pics, I was kind of swallowed by the crowd. Nice to see patriots so close to home.
Beautiful, thanks for the pics.
