She called me at 7:15 this morning upset. She is 78 years old. I explained to her that I went to the demonstration in Chicago that had 2000 people there and it was very diverse and that I was looking for ANY antisemitic signs I could find and found none. I told here I would find more information about these people were outliers and not welcome at whatever OWS protest they were at.
We did discuss Oakland and Scott Olsen and she did say that she heard about that on the news. (I forgot to ask her if it was local Chicago news she was watching or if it was nightline.) Whatever it was, it scared her.
When I get back from work I will google and email her more stuff to back up my points. I gotta get my facts straight. I'm going to dinner with her and my conservative brother on Saturday. Wish me luck.
