Wichita Falls held its Second Tax Day TEA Party Rally at the Wichita County Courthouse on April 15. Hundreds of Citizens attended to listen to several outstanding speakers, including Texas Railroad Commissioner Michael Williams and Los Angeles conservative activist Rev. Jesse Peterson.
The meeting again demonstrated the peaceful assembly of those who are concerned about what is happening in our country. There were no shouts of profanity, no hateful signs, and no trash left afterward. This is what America is all about - peaceful assembly to hear who we wish speak what they wish to say. The messages were positive and powerful and included a tribute to our American soldiers serving throughout the world.
