A small group of
counter demonstrators held signs calling for a civil discussion of the
issues.
"This is democracy in action. We knew we could come and
make our statement, too. Just like the tea party group, we're making our
statement," said Franklin McCallie, a member of Kirkwood United for Health

extremists in these crowds instead of their overall message.

issues that folks here are interested in is fiscal conservatism and

we're a force to be reckoned with and were not going to take it
anymore."
