Dave, thank you SO much for being there and providing those reports. I have been there on that end of the cell phone at Klamath Falls last summer and know how it feels.

Thanks, what I did yesterday was a cake walk compared to your reports from Klamath Falls.

Again, kudos to you for the WTC Petition (400,000 signatures!) and for being named FReeper of the Year. You have done some great work and it is really appreciated.

To: Dave Dilegge, angelwood, kristinn, all
Thank you all and to everyone else from the DC Chapter who worked so hard to put the Rally together. While it would have been great to see us match the America-haters person for person, the fact that we were there and we stood our ground was an important statement.

I think someone else said it earlier in the thread, but I witnessed what appeared to be a (poorly) planned attempt to infiltrate and disrupt the rally from the beginning. Shortly into Congressman Billybob's speech, a small group of punks started yelling, "Money for bombs, not for schools." They had also planted themselves near a few of the reporters that were there. I think it was an attempt to paint our rally as extremist. They were escorted out by the cops as we were preparing to escort them away in a less than gentle manner.

The speakers were excellent, B-1 Bob Dornan was my favorite, and Kevin Martin was a close runner-up. I think that the volume of our sound system is what caused the near riot, as the America-haters could hear B-1 Bob speak the truth and they didn't like it.

I look forward to standing with you and other Patriots again in the future.
