The Ruly Mob




Whether you believe the lowball estimates of sixty thousand (comically low) or the optimistic estimate of some of two million, it is safe to say that there were more people in attendance than show up for a rock concert and I would say the crowd was larger than the famed wrestlemania three silverdome record of one hundred and two thousand give or take. There were a LOT of people there.

I have been to many concerts and sporting events. There was no pushing and no shoving. You heard a near constant "excuse me", "pardon me", " I am sorry", "oh no problem", "you're fine", and "thank you"

I have never felt safe in a large group of people, and I felt perfectly safe In this crowd. Strangers were saving each others seats while they went to the restroom. Strangers asking strangers if they minded if they smoked. A woman lost her son and he was escorted to a police officer and she was reunited with him unharmed in less than an hour.

I won't have any, but many others will and I know that I shared in an historical event that may in time rival the Boston Tea Party itself in historical significance. This is a massive crossroads for this country and what happened on 9/12 will help shape America in the 21st century
I am very proud and happy with the great turnout! Can't wait to see more pics and stories.
It was the same in Chicago! Around 700? I think more, but we know how the media loves to
downplay these things! Everyone was super polite, and no dissenters, at all, I could see.
They knew they were outnumbered. I have 2 super vids from it on my youtube channel
(Link on my blog) God Bless Guys, get home safe.
Halfway home now. Slept until the plane touched down in one of the
Smoothest landings I have ever experienced and I rack up a lot of miles
My Iphone is charging. I only took 90 photos, It seemed like alot more. Correction...I took 256 pictures. I thought so.
