Awesome. Anti-klan rallies were always my favorite things to do in Tallahassee. The very first one I went to was kind of tense. It was the first time in many, many years that the klan had tried to have a rally. As redneck as the area was, we didn't know what the numbers would be like. The anti-klan outnumbered the klan and supporters by about 3 to 1. After that first one, all of the others were a lot of fun. There was always the possibility that the klan might try to get violent, but the police were pretty clearly on our side. It was mostly like a carnival or street party kind of atmosphere.
