Wichitans are certainly considering what war will mean to us, and hundreds of them showed up for a rally Saturday to voice their thoughts.

For Wichita demonstrators peace is important, but so are our troops who will risk their lives.

Amidst a sea of red, white, and blue, families and friends join to show their American pride and stand united in support of our country, our president, and our troops.

Many people here say they hope our soldiers now won't have to pay the price of war.

As one sign read, "support our troops but pray for peace," and above all -- people say love our country.

Wichita mayor bob knight also spoke at Saturday's rally, which was sponsored by radio station KFDI.
