Re: June 7 2021 Harrisburg 2A Rally
Rally begins at 10am, we should leave the garage for the Capitol steps around 9:30. Comms and parking/muster info below for those that want to stay in a group.
Comms:
The PA2A folks have created a dedicated Signal chat for the rally. Please ping either myself, alpacaheat or gnbrotz for an invite to the group.
We'll also still be using 2-way radios to stay in more immediate contact during the rally. Please PM me if you'd like the frequency details and can program your radios yourself. I will also bring a laptop w/ programming USB cable if anyone would like some help in the garage the morning of.
Parking:
We'll be mustering back in the River St Garage (where we went last June for the "cancelled" rally.) We'll meet at the highest open level that isn't the roof (for cover). Several of us will be there early, so you'll find us once you're in there.
Brought to you by your friends at PA2A

Any explanation as to why it is on a Monday? Not an issue for me personally, but I know a lot of guys who simply will not be able to attend. A Monday is not conducive to a big turnout.

It's a day when we also visit our legislators and they are not there on weekends.

Exactly. It's always been scheduled that way - for that reason.
Re: June 7 2021 Harrisburg 2A Rally
Ok, good explanation. But what exactly is one supposed to do if their legislators are steadfastly Bloomberg-aligned clowns? Is there even a point?

Stand outside and look provocative. Be part of the big OC crowd to help remind these idiots the people aren't to be trifled with.
I don't even bother going inside anymore. My state senator is a co-sponsor of nearly every anti gun bill, and my congresswoman is a worthless Dem lever puller who is just in it for the paycheck. No sense talking to either one as they will not change their positions.

Yes, join some other members and hit up other reps that are on the fence. For example, one year Grip safety and I stopped in to see his legislator (Chesco) with a few other members. That R was wobbly at best when it came to the 2A, and the group made a good impression and provided him with some counter arguments to use down the road. It*s a great learning experience, and allows each one of us to develop and verbalize strong points to use in social interactions with others.
