million armed man march

[JimCraig]

Gentlemen,

This is my first post, but for me it is about a very dear subject so I hope the fact that it is my first post does not detract from its legitimacy. There IS a 50 state march. January 19, noon at all state capitol buildings. A guy started a 2nd amendment website, Gun Control = More Crime and it talks about this. This takes place on a Saturday, so hopefully many will show up. I know I'll be at the Capitol building in SLC, UT at noon. If this is information you are already aware of I apologize for the redundancy, if not I encourage all to share it. Take care.

Jim

Our local club is set to have a range officers meeting that day. I just sent out an email suggesting we attend the march instead.

Here is a link that talks about the march. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUAfft7l4wQ]CALL TO ACTION: March on State Capitols, 19 Jan, 2013! - YouTube[/ame]
I also posted it in a thread, CALL TO ACTION

I wonder if Len would let us post this march event for a week in one of the other more frequented forums?

Well, if I wasn't in Afghanistan I'd be standing on the steps of the Ole Dominion state capital with my wife! I just spoke to her and she is going to be there without me. We're telling all our friends in Virginia to be there. It's kinda like voting... if you don't vote, you don't have the right to bitch! so if you don't represent, you won't have the right to complain later!

How about we post sign ideas here? For the march.

I like "With Out the Second We Have No First" But need an Idea.

I do plan on being in Helena on the 19th.

I was thinking, "2nd Amendment - Law of the Land"

I made an post on my FB to let all my gun friends know about the event and to pass it on. Will also be making some calls.

Ok, my wife is definitely going but she's asking if anyone else from VA plans on being there? Come on, don't be shy, speak up! lol. She just doesn't want to end up being the only sign carrier there!

Count me IN ! Another Ideah would be to wear our hunters Orange . See it could possibly send the message to the public when they see the orange that hey this is the good ole boys that Obama is trying to take away there guns . Right now alote of folks see guns as dangerous but you and I hunt with them and protect our families with them !

Tomorrow is the day people!!! 12:00 noon at the Capitol. I am leaving my Range Officer meeting early to join in. Please help us support this !!!!!

Thanks

Jeff

 

[MontanaRifleman]

See you and the rest of the Montana Boys in Helena tomorrow!

 

[DocB]

Because I'm overseas I can't be there in person but I there with everyone in spirit. My wife will be on the state house steps in Richmond at 11am. She and 3 of her friends are heading out early, going to make a day of it in the 'big city'! lol. She's going to send some pics so I'll try to post them on here. Good luck fellas!

I like the idea of the march. But if I read this correctly and this is suggesting a million armed citizens marching to the White House carrying arms.... well that could end up very badly.

I agree that this is a very risky proposition. You can rest assured that the progressive media(which is practically all media) will manipulate the optics to the broad public much like they did with the Tea Party movement(now dead and buried), with the added possibility of sabotage being very real. Our cause is a valid, but from what we have experienced over the last four years on all the attacks on our rights, that's not good enough. The scorecard so far speaks for itself. This is the fight that we can't loose. This type of activity makes us all feel good, but it is exactly what our enemies want us to do. We need to be smart and well organized. The progressives have been planning to take our guns away for 40 years! Knee jerk reactions like this aren't going to cut it. We need to be organized with well thought out plans. IMHO.

So what is your plan today to help? I have sent numerous letters, supported the NRA, I am making signs since 6 am, then off to support our local gun clubs range officer meeting and will leave that function early to attend the peaceful demonstration at our capitol with signs to protect our second amendment rights, and my NRA hat in place. I feel this is more productive than just talking about it and complaining.
