I have attended the FOAC rally 3 of the last 4 years. They do a very good job of organizing and publicizing. The featured speakers are all solid. Despite all of that hard work, except for one year, I thought attendance ought to be better than it has been given what is at stake. Having a rally on a weekend might improve attendance, since working people have a tough time making the annual rally in May. I will keep an eye on this but the movement started a bit late for a November 4th event.
I would be surprised if you can just show up and stage a rally without coordinating with the Capitol Police and others, but I have never organized one, so I may be wrong about that.

I was talking about this in a thread last night. Could someone with Facebook post more info. I've been looking into this and can't find anything other than Facebook links.

The FOAC rally is on a weekday so we are there to go talk to legislators. That's kinda the main focus of that one. This sounds like it's going to be a little more of just a march/protesting new laws.
Nothing wrong with either, but different. I'm assuming there are permits that need to be drawn.

We'll be attending a different kind of church service on Sunday - the annual Fort Ross Gatling shoot....:o
Oh, and remember to turn your clocks back an hour (Spring forward, Fall back).
