****VA Rally reporting thread.***

I'll second this, those with debilitating issues exempted.

I know I was preaching to the choir for the most part here. I was hoping some "others" who view the thread get a fire lit. Our Choir does what they can, and I can't ask for more.

What I can do with the other people I'm involved with locally, is ask that they commit 24 hours per year to the 2A cause...time for voting not included because that is a requirement for a responsible citizen.

As an engineer and manager in industrial construction....everything is about budget and manhours (which equates to commodities of materials)

If you assume conservatively that 15% (1,850,000) of the population of PA owns firearms and are pro 2A/Guns, if the 24 hours per year were applied to them there would be 44,400,000 man hours available to 2A causes. That is a fucking boatload of hours. It can be for monthly meetings with local sportsman clubs, local rallies, state rallies, writing and/or visiting politicians, working with local pro 2A political parties, going door to door at election time, promoting 2A involvement at gun shows, etc etc.

For order of magnitude, 44,400,000 hours is 21,346 people working full time for a year.

And/Or if we ask those who can commit $50/year (less than 15 cents per day) to a 2A cause (FOAC, GOA, Josh Prince, etc etc ) there would almost $100,000,000 for use in PA for the cause. That's Bloomberg/Soros level money and we know how much leverage that money can buy.

For another order of magnitude..$100,000,000 can buy over 1400 people full time at $70K a year

I guess I'm just so frustrated with people and trying to get them involved in real life, like "in person" in the physical world and not virtual.

One more flag pic.

The guy with the combo Confederate and American flag - a desecration of both banners in my opinion.

I despise ANY desecration of the flag, from the ass hat in the picture above to the alphabet club gay version and the cops with their blue crap.

It's the American flag, that should be enough.

I agree.

Here's the best commentary I've seen about the rally, from Matt Christiansen.

Ok...I hear and see that and feel much the same.
BUT
I saw that and my take is it shows how in this fuckec up world it's the new rebel banner in its own country.
Rebels of old and new. Frankly it's not as bad as what the libs are doing to it.
*Flamesuit on*

As for the blue stripes--you also hate on the firefighters red?

So many cop bashers here....are they all good? no -but plenty that are have their asses in the line of fire everyday. Go get you flag panties in twist about a real prob.

I have no issue with flying a historical Confederate flag, especially in Virginia, but I'm also not a fan of modifying the American flag...for any reason. This includes rainbows, Obama's face, your favorite football team's colors and yes, even the blue line American flags or an AR-15 in the blue field.

It deserves the respect, flag code or not.

I do, and I'm glad there were 2 at most.

I guess I'm now on more shit lists. I regularly fly my 3 percent flag. American flag with the stars replaced by the III symbol.
