Robin and Ray orchestrated an event that garnered more attendance than any of us were expecting. Apparently, it received a mention on the NumbersUSA website and, consequently, we had about 40 people rather than around a dozen.
Flags (both U.S. and Ariz.) whipped around in the breeze on Foothill Blvd. and signs were grandly displayed that voiced support for our immediate neighbor to the southeast.
That area of So. Calif. is largely composed of well-kept middle-class homes, so antagonism or derision from locals and the motoring public was practically non-existent. In fact, when I parked on what I quickly learned was a "no-parking" private street in a nearby cul-de-sac, the locals were so delighted with the signs I was pulling out of the trunk of my car, that they let me pull my automobile into one of their driveways for a couple hours.

Inland Valley Daily Bulletin (can't say I'm particularly thrilled w/ the designation of "anti immigration supporters"):
