I was shocked. Kellogg Park was filled. One of my friends walked around, he estimates 2000 to 3000 people. Now you may want to google the park and it's size, my guess a city block wide and long, and a good chunk of the park is taken by trees and a fountain. The signs were amazing, so creative. Two that were really funny were Levin and Stabenow with pirate patches. Many speakers, one Libertarian Author, I met his wife and commented on her Galt shirt, and she was suprised folks knew. But it was all walks of life, young old etc.

Thadeus McCotter spoke briefly, with quite a good speech speaking about our founders, our tenants in a very statesmen like manor. IMHO he has promise on the national stage, one of the few good guys.

Pictures as soon as the are emailed I will link to them.

Yes it was, we were up front and when I turned around after a while they were all the way to the street by the "Box Bar"

( Local Bar with a gazillion types of bottled beer )...

Glad to hear your turnout was big too! The one in Carson City expected about 1000 - there were many, many, many more than that! I’ll “file my Freereport” soon - I’m tired and freezing right now.

Looks like ACORNs turned tail and ran back to hide under their rotting loggs.

Thanks NG, it was warm here, it was rainy and cold in the a.m., but by 3 pm, it was almost nice and a bit of sun which is a blessing given what the weather in MI can be :-)....

There was an Obamaton with an Obama sign who went up to the front middle age white guy, beard, my guess a teacher or a Union Doop. They told him he could be their it was free speech, but he slithered off!!!!

How about the 1,000 we had here in Wichita Falls, Texas?! That's not too bad considering everybody there came on their lunch hour!

A lot of judges, cops, and sheriff's deputies were there as one of us too. I am an assistant DA, and I wanted to make sure the people in my community knew we stood with them. Very exciting stuff happening!

Thanks Clump, W.F. TX has a population of? Plymouth/Canton is 90,000. If W.F. is smaller percentage wise that is probably very good bravo!

Yes a lot of "LEO's" are pissed, but Judges, WOW !

Now that everyone's paid up for the year look for the really odious legislation to start hitting the floor now.

Gun Control
National civilian security forces
FOCA

Yes, they were served notice. No, they are not listening ... yet.

It's from a sci fi flick but it's a great line for ACORN to hear.

"We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

We woke up to snow flurries. When I left my house it 30.2 degrees and windy. BRrrrrrr. Thought that might keep the numbers down but it didn’t.
