The rally at the Babe Ruth field in Shenandoah was yet another successful, peaceful rally hosted by Voice of the People USA. More than 600 people attended, and they were quite vocal!

The speakers began with Dan Smeriglio leading the crowd in the pledge of allegiance, and then a brief moment of silence. Ruth Miller of Illegal Protest talked about the effects of illegal immigration and how the media basically ignores stories about Americans being killed by illegal aliens. Dan Amato of Diggers Realm was very impassioned while talking about the Balogna family that was gunned down in San Francisco by an illegal alien gang banger.

Next up was my husband, Ed Medashefski, of Voice of the People USA. He talked about the 287(g) program that allows local law enforcement to determine immigration status and initiate deportation proceedings.

Dan Smeriglio, founder and president of VOPUSA, started to tell his personal story about 9/11, how he was in NY that day and lost a cousin and two uncles. This speech was interrupted by none other than Crystal Dillman, the alleged fiancee of Luis Ramirez. Dillman and a few of her friends were holding a Mexican flag and had been standing in the back for some time. They got NO attention from anyone, so they moved into the crowd of patriots, flashing the middle finger along the way.

The crowd got upset, and started to swarm towards her. Smeriglio kept talking, even saying “I guess they don’t care about 9/11″ referring to Dillman and her co-traitors. The audience eventually came back to listen, but not until the police made her leave (giving the middle finger from the parking area).

Smeriglio introduced me, and the crowd cheered. I told them about the Criminal Alien Program (CAP) and briefly described its function. I went on to tell them that their mayor had been invited repeatedly to address them , but no reply was ever received. I had been told earlier that the mayor had gone to the “counter protestâ€

WOW Crystal Dillman sure showed her classy side. She is young enough, maybe she will learn that when you become engaged to a criminal, pain often follows. Although I do not condone the killing of her intended, I have very little doubt that he started the altercation.

Great Work, both you and your husband are true patriots!

It is great to see the American people stand up and defend their communities. This was not a hate crime!

WOW! Glad it was such a hit! Bless you for doing this.

Dillman's middle finger didin't surprise me much. She won't get anything but negative attention for that. We should thank her for helping to further our cause with her antics.

LOL I guess my cover is blown ...

We had some trouble with the sound system, as some of our own VOPUSA members refused to show up, and one of them refused to provide the sound equipment we usually use.

It was very disappointing to find out that the elected officials who normally back us were telling us not to wear their buttons to the event.

I saw it as just Americans standing up for America, but I guess they see it as losing votes. It's sad, really.

I saw some of my friend's video while we were having dinner last night, and it's very good, he was right there by Dillman ..

I'd call her a few choice words, but I try to stay PG-rated.

the alleged fiancee of Luis Ramirez. Dillman and a few of her friends were holding a Mexican flag and had been standing in the back for some time. They got NO attention from anyone, so they moved into the crowd of patriots, flashing the middle finger along the way.

TYPICAL. Holding up their precious MEXICAN FLAG and flashing their MIDDLE FINGER at the crowds. Good grief, do these people have any brains?

Of course the media never shows this. I guess you can tell whose side they are on.
