Three weeks after the so-called Peoples Convoy landed in Washington, D.C., the group is calling it quits after accomplishing nothing except injuring residents and circling the Beltway.
Co-organizer Mike Landis announced Sunday night that the group would pack its things up in the coming days and drive back to California.
So what I want to know is, what do you think about heading to California? Landis asked, to the crowds delight.
Landis further said that convoy-goers who remain posted up in Hagerstown, Marylandwho have experienced many freezing nights while camped out in the small town an hour and a half north of D.C. properwill enjoy a southern route back to California.

I'd toss in a few tornadoes, too, but that might hurt some innocent bystanders.

Yes, freezing cold's apparently a significant factor. Back to California!, etc.
