Good for you! I have tried to promote IGOLD at GSL, but my IGOLD speakers start talking about something else.

I need to get off my lazy ass and head back down there. This should have a huge turnout, will it? Will bans already be passed and signed by then?

So, its possible bills could be passed by both bodies by the 25th but doubtful, IMO, they would be signed by then. Given difficulty finding language that will be supported for amendments, much less passing the bill, nothing is a given. BTW, There are no buses this year unless a local group is doing one near you. Some use Amtrak if near a station, otherwise there are usually a few people that have room to carpool. |

Nope. Convention center is posted. The march is permitted so it is a no carry zone, and the capitol building is (of course) off limits. ETA: That is to say a city permit is required to close the streets and march the capitol. |

Guys I am one of the Police Officers who will be on duty this day. If possible please leave as many metal and electronic devices in your vehicle or in a secure location. This way we can get you through the screening process quickly and into the building so you can rally. I can't get the day off or I would be with you guys. If any of you guys see me my last name is Cherry. Stop and say hi. I hope we have a large attendance.

This is turning into a craigslist missed connections thread.
We'll have to plan next year a little better.

Quote HistoryIn the last couple of seconds of the clip, you can see our Gadsden and Old Glory.  Attached FileStaging area outside of convention center. At this point, we had a tough decision to make. Our food was on the top floor of the ramp. Do we run up and grab the grub quick-like, or not? Then the crowd started moving. |
