    I'm not sure. They stopped letting people in the front doors, but some were still getting in in the back. I'd say 1000 max in the rotunda, maybe a little less. I'm pretty sure between inside and out we were over that last year.

    Well we had an estimated 800-900 total people with about 200 outside...so there's an estimated capacity of the Rotunda. About 25 Moms Demand included in the number...HA.
    Galations 6:9...And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.

    Excellent turn out, If this is going to turn into something more with advertising well in advance the goal should be to get as many people outside openly carrying as there are as many inside speaking to reps. 1600 to 2000 gun owners at once is a big day for any state capital including the liberal standards of AZ and TX.

    Maybe rolling out a facebook, instagram, and twatter page (all things I hate) making daily or at least bi weekly posts and reminders for the next 3.5-4 months will get people actively engaged and put in for the time off now.

    Sure looks like it!

    Gotta tell ya, it was a sober reminder to Mrs. Wilderness and me, while still embracing the good feeling we got from the PBurgh rally, to see that. We agreed we really have our work cut out for us.

    This would* be a very smart course of action.
    Maybe we as a forum should start a discussion on using PAFOA as a banner for our side, and more.

    If you're doing that, I'm bringing the Grom and AK!

    What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms!

    Please explain why using all social media to promote an event is not a wise idea?

    It's been a few years since I have owned a motorcycle so I will just have to make the drive in my crappy little Prius.

    If there's not already one made, I'm considering designing a flyer to hand out at local gun shops. If we all help and hit every county, could be a record turnout.
