    The rally is being started earlier , 12:30 as the have added speakers . As I understand Hickockr45 will be speaking . I should be getting into town around 10:30 . Not sure about a restaurant meet up . I'll pm you my cell Maggot . I wonder someone should pick a corner and hold up an SH sign .

    please post pics of the number of people that attend for those that can’t go.
     
    So what the fuck ? Is anyone going ? If your car was being stolen you'd be out front with the lead pez dispenser . Somebody kidnapping your kid , on it like Jimmy Super Fly Snooka . People tryin to steal your God given Rights ; It's too far , I gotta wash my dog , my sister's cousins brother is havin a thing , oh thoae rallies don't mean shit .
    Why not just hand yer shit over now . Take a week to gone hunting , fucke yeah . Take a vacation day to pick up a new gun , fuck yeah . Four hour drive to shoot 1k yards , fuck yeah . Spend a day in Washington protecting your Rights ? Fuck off .
    I can't get my head around the apathy .
     
    Because this is really going to make a difference. It will however make those attending feel as though they have "done something."

    So there's that.

    I do my work at the ballot box.

    Nationals rally in DC fucked up everything so I didnt make it. Sending good thoughts.:cool: Hope Alpha made it.
     
    Oh BS....total BS. Go have your little rally. We will all be impressed.

    The ONLY thing that matters is what happens at the ballot box.

    I know how I'm voting.

    I somewhat disagree with you. You are putting way too much faith in a rigged system. I dont believe anyone’s vote even counts anymore. I watched an election get stolen last year in AL on some of the same BS they tried to do with Kavanaugh. They were successful there. It’s all rigged at this point with voter fraud, found votes and so on. I for one dont think it matters.

    What does matter is swaying public opinion. Look at the LGBTQ community. Do you think they are voting their change? Do you think their way of life is all of a sudden more acceptable? No, the difference is their small numbers are speaking much louder and swaying public opinion. If we don’t start standing up for our own rights ourselves wtf should any elected reps. In fact, that brings me to my next point that I am reminded of. I had a phone conversation with one of my Congress critters recently who is solid red, always has been and nearly voted on some Antigun crap because he hasn’t heard from any of his constituents which in his mind led him to believe that the public favored the bill otherwise they would be speaking out about it. Public opinion matters more than anything and in order to change that you have to get out and get to work.

    I'm sitting in the train station waiting to go home . Maybe 1100 turned out . And it takes more than the Ballot Box .
    It takea :
    Showing up
    Calling your elected
    Taking new people shooting
    If you find a solid candidate vo knock on doors for them
    Read our history and educate people about 2A and our Constitutional process
    Yep gonna take alot more . We are the Stewards of this great Country . It is our duty to be ever vigilant and diligent. A Government of the People for the People . Not a governmwnt of bloated elitist swine . Step up , stand in or shut up.
     
    Go ahead, have your little rally in DC.

    They did, and we had 1100 people out of 100,000,000 gun owners show up which makes us look like fools not to mention what the public would think. In their mind this proves that nobody cares about guns anymore and will further embolden them. I thank anyone that was able to attend.

    Then you shouldn't believe a peaceful protest will make a hoot-in-hells difference. "They" haven't been listening to their constituents for quite a long while.

    I notice some people who actually live close kinda "had things come up" too. Kudos to @Alphatreedog for making the effort.

    The fact is, and will remain, the working man don't have time for this shit.
    And whoever said something about vacation time....yeah....again, you are assuming a hell of a lot.
    I spent years taking very small or no vacations with my late wife cause we had "a plan". We didn't have the luxury of "getting involved". Now?
    Fuck you. I still don't have time to go to bullshit circle jerks in DC. I don't have time to protest for you. Yes I'm busy living my life, I'm not about to apologize for doing so.
     
    If you want to blame someone for the current state our Country is in look in the mirror . We , each and every last one of us has allowed all of the bullshit to go on .
    So honor your duty as a citizen and do something or again , just shut up . The founders risked everything . Yeah inalienable Rights Blah Blah given by God Yadda Yadda . Sometimes ya gotta get off your ass and handle shit .
    You either paid a bill or you didn't.
    You sered in the military or you didn't.
    You got a paycheck or you didn't.
    You got off your ass and defended your God given rights when you could have or you didn't. No bullshit . No excuses . You did or you didn't.
     
    Oh BS....total BS. Go have your little rally. We will all be impressed.

    I know how I'm voting.
    Ballot box is as corrupted as any part of this game.
    Check voter registration throughout this country, more than many have over 100%.
    While you're at it study voter harvesting in blue country.

    BTW- Thanks for those that could attend.

    I had time, and I did go to rallys and Town Halls and wrote Congress critters in the early 90s. If we hadn't, that damn Clinton AWB wouldn't have had a sundown clause in '04.

    My government has fucked me in far bigger ways than threatening to take my guns.
    I'm 50, and have learned there are far sneakier ways to destroy a man.
    It was mentioned in another thread by the German. They are distracting you. They are busy stealing your future while they hold up that 2A tennis ball.

    Wait till they seize some 401k money....it'll get sporty right quick, watch and see.

    They'll snatch your 401k when the 2nd is gone and there's no recourse for the surfs .
     
    Yep. I agree with everything said but I’ll say this to add, if this is the kind of turn out we have for each other when the so called boogaloo does start, then it’s already over. But I will also say, I ain’t going out in a train car or as a slave.

    I'm happy with the turnout. Says a lot about the people who did go even though the number wasn't very high. Keep in mind, it's DC. Free men got chased out of that town fucking decades ago. Many, many decades ago.

    My apologies for not making it but I had a commitment Id made, and couldnt break, 6 months before I learned of the rally. Other than that Id have been there.

    I think most of us here agree more often than not, no reason for the fuck you’s. I respect everyone that stands up for our rights, past present or future. I respect anyone that wasn’t able to go as well. As you said, many gun owners are the ones that make the country go round and we don’t have the time for this crap. I get it, I’m one of those people to. And what I said was not meant to be an insult to anyone. My point behind it is that if we can’t muster up a better turn out than this for our rights then we sure as hell don’t need to be doing rally’s because whether i believe voting counts or not is irrelevant. What does count is appearances and giving the illusion that you have strong numbers whether you do or not. If your numbers look weak then so does the message and that doesn’t bode well for our group. So maybe it’s not a good idea to do these. In all honesty, it went about like I figured it would. I did all I could to get the message out to as many as I could. Again, to me it’s about optics, if you look weak you most likely are and I think public opinion far outweighs what any political idiot thinks or does.

    Again, the reason the gay pride idiots get so much done is because a very small group of people yell the loudest. They aren’t outspending us, their way of life isn’t considered anymore normal than it was a hundred years ago, they simply are yelling the loudest and making the most noise and turning out when they can. So they are moving the Needle because they appear to be a lot bigger bigger voice than they actually are. It’s that simple.
     
    Someone mentioned the guys who live close . I am three hours away as in Pa. . Jersey , Delaware , Maryland and Virginia all have 2A supporters within 3hrs .
    There should have been 200 ,000 people there . I would venture that there are near a million gun owners within 3hrs of DC .

    Actually, theyre moving the needle because the gov. want that crazy shit. If 1 faggot stood on the street corner of a 100% conservative town, the 1 local liberal POS representative would draw up a law that allows all fags to buttfuck each other on the courthouse steps on sunday. Due to "high demand".

    There is some truth to that but if enough people speak out about it, I think our voice still scares the people that think they run this place. And that’s kind of my point. I think up until now they have been afraid of the people and the arms they have but they have been slow rolling their wishes and testing the waters and arent really getting any pushback. I believe what little of the 2A we have left is basically all that deters them from going apeshit crazy and making us all more slaves than we already are because despite what people think, most of us are slaves to the system, we just ain’t full on slaves, yet. As @Alphatreedog said, it’s about a lot of different things not one. It’s not just writing people, or getting more involved or writing checks or doing rally’s etc. it’s all of the above and the more active you are the better the optics. We need to put the fear back in those that think they control us. Without doing that we will continue down this terrible spiral and I for one want to leave something for my kids.
     
    Oh yeah I almost forgot . Pittaburgh Pa Assault Weapn Ban , High cap mag ban and Red flag laws were all reversed in court by Joshua Prince . He is Pa's predominant wA lawyer . Washin up in the men's room at the botanical gardens ( only fuckin facilities availabe ) I commented on a guy's NRA hat . He asked if I'm going to the rally . Yes sir I am . An older gentlemen asks where I'm from and we talk a bit .Little while later the vuy takes the podium . Dick Heller . A couple guys mentioned that Hickock 45 was just hanging out walking thru the crowd and talking to people .
    Man I love the 2A crowd .
    Edit. 2A crowd as in comps and you guys also .

    When's the last time the NRA organized a March?

    Sorry about the fuck you, it wasn't personal....kind of the "royal" fuck you.

    We do agree, and I do appreciate you guys. I could go into a long diatribe about why I simply couldn't be there, but I won't. We all have the same things that get in the way. It's been said many times but I'll day it again.
    Those loud proud fuckwits and useful idiots are professional protestors. They have big money behind them that we can't match, if we all planned to eat beans and pour cash into mass transit to the next gun rally.

    Besides all that, we aren't wired that way. We never have been wired that way.
    As to the boogaloo comments....I'll say again. Don't discount the quiet masses. They are quiet for a reason. A quiet man, is a dangerous man....he is also a very smart and cunning man.

    It may start in the cities, but it will end in the hills, valleys, and fields of flyover country. We produce the goods, services, food, water, and power to those blue blotches on an election map.
    A dangerous man, is dangerous, because he is slow to wrath.

    The low turnout? My theory? The time for talk has passed. The people of this country stood up with a resounding yell in 2016. Since that time, there has been no end to the attack on the will of the people. It is positively earth scorching in it's rapacious nature.
    The People are done with DC.

    Careful what you wish for, cause that defining moment is coming. Don't hold your ear to the wind listening for the barbaric yawp of those who will fight. They are out there. They also have enough sense right now, not to raise their hand and be counted.

    It is coming, and it will be ugly. That low turnout may just be the quiet before the storm.
    There is a coup being waged against We The People.
    They've took your healthcare.
    Seek to overturn a legal presidential election.
    Have squandered our fortunes.
    Reward the lazy and self abusive.
    Rob the productive of their sustenance.
    Outfit civil authorities with military equipment to be used against the populace at a time of their choosing.
    Confiscate legal property without due process or proper recourse.

    If you are a felon overnight.....well
    Be a good one.
