Mount Pleasant [JG] Both the Racine Journal Times and the Milwaukee Business Journal referred to the five malcontents at the (sadly predictable) “Boo, Walmart!” meeting as “a crowd”.
Mind you, when thousands of Tea-Partiers gather, they are “a small but vocal group”. But when five tie-dyed, sandaled agitators pour out of a Prius, they constitute “a crowd”.
I wonder if they even took the time to cover up their “COEXIST” bumper sticker before stepping to the microphone to tell the state’s largest private employer to go to hell?
Of course, this is just one man’s opinion in opposition to the demands of an entire “crowd”…

over-crowded Mount Pleasant parking lot,

Absent quote marks, the phrase is figurative.
You’re certainly welcome to interpret the NIMBYs’ message as “Welcome to our community, Walmart”, but you’d be quite at odds with all journalistic accounts of the event thus far.
Thanks for reading…
