I sincerely doubt this protest will get coverage unless someone is hurt. On the other hand at least people are protesting this jerk.

I have arrived home after participating in some of the protest. The protest began at 9 and I arrived at 10:30. Thirty people were there holding signs and holding signs. Cars were honking their horns to show support. According to some folks that I talked to about 150 people were there at 9 a.m. The press/media had interviewed some of the protestors but they had left by the time I arrived. Some folks told me that it was NBC and Fox that had sent reporters.

Anderson (I refuse to call him pastor) also came out to speak to the crowd but I was told that they turned their backs to him. Some of the congragation were standing outside and they did have guns on their hips.
