Did anyone go to the rally at the capital today? I understand it was put on by the Oath Keepers and some other groups?

I just heard a blurb on the news that they mentioned fighting for open carry?  I don't know if they were talking about Iowa, Texas or bringing it nationwide? I am curious as open carry in Iowa is already legal of course with a permit. Maybe they were talking about Constitutional Carry?

I am waiting to see if TV8 posts the story

the only thing I heard about it was from iowaredneck saying something about him and his son going over there.  I hadn't heard anything else about it.

Saw it on the news, channel 13 I think waiting for the Penguins game to start.

At least one guy OC'ed an AR.

Maybe the news got excited and called it a open carry rally?  I was more intrigued by the story about the handicapped wheelchair hunters

No clue what they called it, I had the TV on mute. Just noticed that one guy was OC'ing an AR in the video coverage.

I was watching music videos on Youtube. Agnostic Front can't be stopped for liberal news coverage.

Channel 13 said it was all about the omnibus bill. The video showed maybe a dozen people.

This was news to me. Strange this happened but apparently very few knew about it ahead of time.  

Must have kept it on the down low.  Don't want big crowds supporting rights or anything like that.

Don't you mean the RANGERS game?



ETA:  I guess the Rangers didn't want to play last night, did they?

I did not know of it either. Would have maybe driven there myself as I had nothing going on at all this weekend and LP worked this weekend.

Didn't know anything about it either.  I would have gladly taken a break from painting to go hang out for a bit.
