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.

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.

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!

I was there too but had no idea how to estimate crowd size. I wish I could have written down some of the points people made in their speeches. They were inspiring. Got to shake Thaddeus McCotter’s hand!
