If the anti war left thought a bunch of US army and marines could be stopped with a little political correctness, they sorely underestimated us.

The Vets For Freedom Heroes Tour redirected to the Forest Lake American Legion post. Several dozen kids and teachers from the Forest Lake high school attended despite the school administration deeming us to be 'too political'. Another 30 or 40 local citizens showed up to tell us of their disgust with the school. All in all, the event went very well.

But the irony is that this morning's event as originally planned would have gotten almost no media attention. Now it is all over the internet and there were 3 TV news crews covering it.

Again, go to Blackfive for Uncle Jimbo's video coverage of the entire event.

Even the StarTribune's own poll show's how embarrassing today's school decision was-

Should the military be allowed to tell it's story in the public schools?

Yes-94.2%

No-5.7%
