It was a mob scene Thursday at Kirk Cameron's reading of his God-focused children's book at the Indianapolis Public Library — except this mob didn't do what mobs do; rather it was just smiles, cheering, and laughter all around.

BRAVE Story Hour

@BraveBooksUS

This is a message to every library in the United States: In 137 years of the Indianapolis Public Library’s history, NEVER ONCE have they had over 2,500 people show up to a single event. UNTIL TODAY.

Folks even sang "God Bless America":

Brave Books — Cameron's publisher for his "As You Grow" children's book — earlier this month said two public libraries agreed to let him do readings for kids after initially saying no to the actor and outspoken Christian.

Cameron told Fox News Digital he "won" after challenging the libraries' denials and threatening to "assert" his "rights in court" — not to mention the libraries hosted drag queen story hours in June, according to the cable network.

One of the libraries to agree to Cameron's reading was the Indianapolis Public Library; the other was Scarsdale (New York) Public Library, where Cameron was scheduled to do a reading Friday.

I am thrilled for him getting a strong lositive response. Someone enterprising might notice there is a neglected demographic out there, waiting to be paid attention to.

Yet, despite going to see the man in person, everyone is staring at their phones.

The LAAP-dog media and Big Hollywood will refuse to legitimize it.

Makes me proud that I will soon be a newly relocated conservative Hooser. Illinois is lost.

Brought a tear to my eye to see how much people want wholesome messages for their kids instead of all the woke stuff.
