How many protesters are currently in Crawford with Cindy?
Hi everyone,

The media gives conflicting accounts, and I am wondering how many Cindy supporters are with her now in Crawford. I've read anywhere from 1,000-"dozens".

I am hoping and praying that this group grows into a huge force to be reckoned with.

I am trying so hard to get there. My daughter starts kindergarten next week, but my husband and I are trying to work out something.

It seems like many are planning on going to Crawford, and that many are on their way down to Texas.

Do we anticipate a huge crowd? I sure hope so! I'm realizing that I might not make it. That makes me sad...but knowing that a huge group with a powerful presence is in the making--would make me feel better!

Thanks for any info on current numbers or predictions about how big this will become.

1. Good Question...
Big Eddie Schultz (Big Ed radio) interviews Cindy every day (M-F) on his program :hug:

Yesterday, he asked her that same question.. "about how many people would you say are there supporting your efforts?"

She said "ohh, man.. and looked around and said, I'm seriously going to have to get back to you on that Ed.. there's just so many"

Maybe someone will drop in with some figures though.

I cracked up after reading that the Freeper Convoy (all of which consisted of under 10 people) lasted there for 30 minutes before they got the hell outta Dodge :rofl:

3. talked to cindy
I just got off the phone with Cindy,she called me between interviews and she said the rally today was awesome !!!!Hundreds of cars showed up and some people came from as far away as Minnesota.
This is really happening thanks to one lady who wouldnt give up and become a vegetable like so many people in this country have become.
We have to all live on this planet and find a way to live peacefully
together and not force out beliefs on others as they have as much right
to their beliefs as you have to yours.
Cindy slept in a trailor by the peace house last night as her tent was filled with fire ants so she sounded rested and peaceful and so happy about what is happening.America is waking up from the lull it has been in for the last 5 years.
NO more lies George ,we aint gonna take it anymore!!!!! Now I am reading that he said he is leaving options open for a war on Iran.I think not!!!!! People are tired of the dictator thinking that he can rule the world.He isnt smart enough to make a sensible statement so what makes him think that he can hide away on his 1600 acre retreat
and be the king???
No more lives for money and oil!!!!
