The media mixed in with crowd.
The Downtown Mall has many sidewalk restaurants. The one nearest the rally site wasn't doing much business Friday evening....
Charlottesville has a "writing wall" at one end of the Downtown Mall. Sidewalk chalk is provided for those who would like to print a message, draw artwork, or whatever moves them. This was the message I left on the wall Friday.
SWAC Girl's message on the Charlottesville Writing Wall: SUPPORT THE TROOPS!
A number of children were there to support the troops.
This little "Win the War" support's sign says, "Al-Qaida thanks you."
