Beat me to it.. just got the email with updated bus info, should be updated on the site shortly.

We NEED people to come to these... it makes a difference. January was to counter Bloomberg's paid pony show. This not only gets you face to face with your elected reps, but shows them we are not just a reactionary group of citezens, coming out when the political iron was hottest.

Not that the iron has cooled at all.

I'm heading out too.

Super Scout

The dude apparently already filled his van, not sure why he called me in the firstplace. Anyway we wanna meet up, have our own carpool ?

justin'sbig7
04-12-2013, 02:00 PM

I would rather take two trucks than try to pack 6 in a truck cab.

Super Scout
04-15-2013, 10:26 AM
I maybe able to borrow my dads burban. I will let you know. If not two trucks is good for me the Suburban can seat 8

Azzy
04-15-2013, 10:48 AM
There is still room on some of the sponsored tour buses, IIRC $35 a seat.

joshs1ofakindxj
04-15-2013, 11:33 AM
I was thinking about how much I don't like busses, idk...

justin'sbig7
04-15-2013, 12:03 PM
I kind of agree with josh, I thought I had a huge truck, but it apparently is not a good option for 5+ adults for that length of a ride. The Burban with 3 rows may not be terrible for 6 of us, Whatever we come up with is good for me, and I can gladly drive again as well.

I could just ride the motorcycle! Gawd that would be boring.

Super Scout
04-15-2013, 12:26 PM
No bus....i'll have the K car by than we can take it. I'll ask pops, he may need it that day but if not it would be an option.

justin'sbig7
04-15-2013, 12:35 PM
I'll chip in fuel for the deuce! THAT would be the awesomest way to roll up.

Super Scout
04-15-2013, 12:35 PM
Merica' Vote 2 for the Duece !!

Azzy

Did that ride 4 years ago in the rain. It sucked.

Sheesh I don't think I could find a place to park the deuce. I would have to just keep driving around the Capitol and honking the air horn

You would have prime seating for the rally, I think they kicked us outside again because the Democrat caucus doent like to be bothered and in some cases, illegally blocks the doors to their offices during these events.

socialists piss me off.

Super Scout
04-21-2013, 06:00 PM
Ok, so lets get this settled. Who is going, where and when are we meeting. Pop said no go on the burban. (On a side note it kinda pisses me off how little support we get at these events. I will lose 200 dollars out of my back pocket on Tuesday not including the cost to get my ass there. Lots of gun owners on this site, and I think we had 6 at the last rally embarrassing really)

Super Scout aka Steve.

justin'sbig7
04-21-2013, 08:51 PM
I am in, and I may have made the ride situation easier. with me, dad, his friend and possibly a 4th. I can possibly just drive this crew of 4 out, so that evens it out if we take 2 vehicles.

joshs1ofakindxj
04-21-2013, 09:24 PM
oh and Cory is going.

me steve cory can ride in the chevy rally-alanche

justin'sbig7
04-21-2013, 10:05 PM
Seth said something about going out too.

sethman15210
04-21-2013, 11:08 PM
Any idea on when we would be back? I got a appt a 6pm I can't miss.

joshs1ofakindxj
04-22-2013, 09:08 AM
Hard to say. All I know is it starts at 10am

sethman15210
04-22-2013, 09:31 AM
when did we get back last time?

Super Scout
04-22-2013, 09:42 AM
I want to say I was home around 6-7. Where is Azzy he would know. We also visited all our reps last time as well. So, if we sped up a little bit we maybe able to get home sooner. When and where do we plan on meeting ?

sethman15210
04-22-2013, 10:06 AM
screw it im in, im on the phone now trying to reschedule my appt. so where do i meet up?

joshs1ofakindxj
04-22-2013, 10:14 AM
Irwin Walmart again everyone? 530am or something like that? I think the last I heard we will be outside on the steps again at first. I def not checking a handgun again. Ill oc my training glock for effect.

sethman15210
04-22-2013, 10:33 AM
so what, are the crowds expected to be that bad?

joshs1ofakindxj
04-22-2013, 10:51 AM
I hope the crowd is larger and I'm just not standing in that line again. Heck with that.

sethman15210
04-22-2013, 11:02 AM
ok well I'm carrying, atleast it wont be cold a sh*t this time. Plus i was smart enough this time to download and print the firearms receipt this time. I don't who im riding with but ill be at the walleye mart at 5:30.

Super Scout
04-22-2013, 11:58 AM
Ill be there, whats this about a firearms receipt ?

joshs1ofakindxj
04-22-2013, 01:33 PM
You fill it a form in advance when you check your firearm to save time.

justin'sbig7
04-22-2013, 03:24 PM
I am thinking the same thing as josh, may not be worth the line to carry.

joshs1ofakindxj
04-22-2013, 04:12 PM
Sorry 6am meet at Irwin walmart

justin'sbig7
04-22-2013, 07:58 PM
I am picking the crew riding in my truck up in Gibsonia at 5:30. does anyone else need a seat? I should have one left. If not I wont stop at the wallyworld and just see yall at the capital.

sethman15210
04-22-2013, 10:23 PM
im assuming im catchin a ride with josh, so im heading to the wally mart.

Super Scout
04-22-2013, 10:32 PM
Sounds good see you all there.

Azzy
04-24-2013, 02:04 PM
Thanks for coming out guys, good to see you there. We had good numbers, and hopfully it got into some of the reps heads that standing still on legislation or introducing more restrictions is not the thing to do right now (or for that matter, ever).

FOAC will have video and photos from the event soon, Ive got 8 gig of data to dump, convert and upload, and we still had another member on the media team! :)
