Just got back from DePaul
It might be the land of his ancestors, but it would appear none of them bothered to learn how to spell. When I pointed out the mis-spelling of ‘ancesters’ the little guy called me ’sexist’. HUH?
Just got back from DePaul. Jake and MJ are still there - they got the ‘inside scoop’ because they are in the inside - and the media and the public are closed out of the minuteman speech; it is for DePaul students only because the socialists called up with threats. When we left, they were chanting their silly chants and making some pretty unbelievable claims.
Footage and a few pictures to follow shortly.
Jake and MJ will have some up, too, but I’m sure they’ll be getting home a lot later than me.
I particularly liked this sign:
But of course, the people who supported the minutemen were soft spoken while the socialists were rude and getting all the attention.
Lots of media was there - and I guess they were having a fit over Simcox’s speech not being a public event.
But in a way the socialists still got their way; they limited the free speech of someone who has every right to be heard.

I can see million of the young people of today 20 years from now when their children/grandchildren ask ‘what did you do in the WOT’ and they have to answer ‘I was a coward and protested’ when there was nothing to protest. I see it quite often now when several of us prior military/retirees are talking and someone in the crowd avoided service one way or another. They have to hang their head and pretend they are interested in what we talk about when they have no idea what we’re talking about. They will be lost souls, aka cowards, the rest of their lives.

Agreed. It’s really very sad.
