Yes, rallies can be effective if….

I commend pro-gun efforts. I just don't see a handful (even a couple dozen) protesters making a difference...especially if they are not voters of the Chairman's district who could either vote him out during the general election (highly unlikely) or "primary" him.

So you said.
And so I said, that your opinion is entirely suspect as long as you remain a Liberal Democrat and support a party that wants to abolish the Second Amendment.

Although you may not be able to vote in the chairmen's district, money spends well across district lines.

Would like 1 more area leader to step up, for an even dozen.

I've been updating post #1. Lets give it the weekend. Then the 12 (or 11) of us decide on a date/time/place. If we start with 12, we'll likely get 9 to a strategy meeting.

I said in the rally thread I am in pending schedule conflicts.

True...I never thought of that. It is very unlikely a sitting Committee Chair would lose his chairmanship as long as his party remained in the majority, but I guess it could happen.

I guess you have not seen the effects that the Mommies that want to take your guns has.. And the last 3 rallies they had at the Capitol there was only about 15 -20

My apology. I apparently missed that. BTW: all of us are subject to schedule conflicts. That's why I have been pushing for 12 people. For any given get together, we would likely get 8 or 9 out of 12.

Longcall, would you like to post some possible dates that will work for the Harrisburg meeting.

[longcall911]

So, we have a dozen.

Can we try this? Would everyone on the list reply with whether generally speaking, a late Saturday morning (11ish) or late Sunday afternoon (4ish) is better, or both or neither. Once we get a rough sense of which is better, we'll put out a few dates.

For me, I can usually do either.

[Walleye Hunter]

I could do either but prefer mornings. Are we going to meet at the Hollywood Casino?
