Are people taking their kids to this?
Or is this one of those cases where after the pepper spray, tear gas and hickory shampoo are dispensed, folks point out the stupidity of the man taking children to a gun rally? |

Me and my wife are going to both. Me and a lot of the people I know believe that his should be an event similar to the Tea Party marches where most people had some sort of long rifle slung on their back. I'm personally going carry my EDC weapon like always but I'm going to have my rifle slung on my back with an empty (windowed) P-mag and a chamber flag for good measure. I think everyone should have a slung long rifle with an empty "high cap mag"(if your allowed to in your state). It worked well for the Tea Party, the media noticed and reported on it, plus its what they are focusing on banning. They need to know we won’t give them something small or large to save the overall amendment like in 94. We won’t give an inch not magazines, weapon types or furniture, nothing.
The two dates are far enough apart to go to both. But I am worried that the protests aren't soon enough. Legislation is being pushed through right now. This needs to be spread around to everyone you know, it needs to be huge. By the way I think business casual would help. Real Tree and torn jeans help push their depiction of all of us. I'll be in a tie. I also order two flags from Gadsden and culpeper and I think I'm going to bring a flag I recieved from my Congressman that was flown over the U.S. Capital, it sems fitting. Tea Party Rally

You think the only battles that count are the ones where you stand in nice neat lines, advance slowly and take potshots at each other? How about the battles fought with the microphone, the leaflet, the crowds rallied on a street corner? How about all the battles you've already lost without your opponents ever needing to fire a shot? Heck yeah I'll be brave! Braver than a tiger! Braver than six o' them! Just... err... maybe some other time  |

I thought it would be in Tallahassee, which would be tough for me that day. Hopefully, at the very least, all those people who flock to the Hernando Machine Gun Shoot will be there. Imagine if it looked like the last Tampa Gun Show. |

I'm not an experienced demonstrator but I have seen how little it takes for a demonstration to go south when some outsiders put some energy into it. Far fetched for it to happen here I imagine. As far as Florida, well, I agree, it's better than KS in most every way.  Our hurricanes are smaller though.
