Couldn't make it to a rally today. But, we we're in occupied territory. My son competed in a TaeKwonDo tournament in Berkeley today, on the UC Berkeley Campus! All was pretty quiet there. On the way out I saw some peaceniks carrying a huge white flag with the word "Flag" on it. I yelled, "Hey, is that the French flag?" He just gave me a dirty look. :)

Correct the Milwaukee figure to 2500-3000. (2500 from the police, 3000 from FReeper, steveegg.

I attended one at the state capitol in Raleigh today. I'm awful at crowd estimates, but I can say attendance was in the hundreds.

Here in Raleigh, I'm guessing 5-600, conservatively.

Media reports the Milwaukee number as 2500

[RightOnline]

May I also point out that the droolingly leftist local news said there were "more than a hundred"??

ROFLMAO!!!!! Can't make this stuff up, folks.

I hope somebody can post some pictures from Bellevue today. It was actually sunny in Bellevue and the brisk wind made the thousands of flags a beautiful sight.

Oh say can you see...

I was a rally of one removing ANSWER fliers, here in Palo Alto CA.

Thanks gg...want to be responsible for getting all rally attendance totals?

Was unable to have to pay my taxes and earn money for the illegals in the US and pay over time for the cops.

I know, it looks like you already are doing this, but it was one of the items on the FRN "To Do" so if you do it, I can mark it off the list!

I heard 5000 in Seattle. I guess it was an overwhelming success. Can't wait to see pics and hear more about it... has to be a real record for that city.
There were about 70 of us at Camp Murray south of Tacoma, but we got an outstanding response. And we stuck it out in some pretty brutal rain and hail.

BTW - I requested to have this moved to the "activiism" sidebar.

I may be off and on tonight, so anyone can feel free to copy-and-paste the latest list, adding their own totals. Thanks.
