Thank you so much! : )
Regarding the police - Yes, they were at the last rally and others. Yes they will tell the other side to back off, BUT, there have been occasions where, in my opinion, things escalated (that didn't have too!), because two opposing groups were not kept apart, and the number of Lefties/Arabs surrounded and overwhelmed our side. So much for OUR rights. This happened at several FReeps/rallies I was at and I don't understand why it was allowed to happen. So, lesson learned... and that is why I emphasize, even though the police are there (and we thank them for doing what they can), we each, are responsible for our own safety.
Look forward to seeing you and everyone, too. : )
Thank you again stratman!
