The most important day for gun owners in Virginia - 12/07/14 09:43 AM
Yes, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. When you are tired of hearing it "make noise" you give it what it wants to quiet it down....right?
Well, who's going to make the most noise in 2015 ... the gun owners or the anti-gunners? Who will get what they want?
Monday January 19, 2015 will be here soon. Its MLK Day, a holiday, and a lot of you and your children and spouses will have off work.
That day is also LOBBY DAY in Virginia. You can lobby your law makers for whatever interests you. This takes place at the General Assembly building in Richmond. There will be folks there lobbying for everything from education to renewable energy to legalizing marijuana and for STRICTER GUN LAWS. Yes, there will be anti-gun people there. How many? We don't know. But we have to outnumber them. We have to make more noise!!!! We have to be the squeaky wheel!!!
You know how you take your car to get the oil changed or change it yourself? Why?? Because its preventative maintenance. Its something that needs to be done so your car will be there for you when you need it. Think of Lobby Day as preventative maintenance for your GUN RIGHTS. It's a few hours out of one day a year for you to sacrifice so that your gun rights will be there for you in the future.
What can you do at Lobby Day to make a difference? Just showing up is huge. If you wish you can go in the building and speak with your lawmaker...encourage them to support gun rights. At least we need to flood the building with our GUNS SAVE LIVES stickers so that all the lawmakers see us.
Then we rally at the Bell Tower afterwards, which is on the grounds of the General Assembly building. The VCDL and others will speak.
Usually starts around 9am, ends by noon. It is a holiday so many of the government employees are off work = PARKING ISN'T AS BAD!!!
Please try to come and bring friends and family. Its a great experience for kids too.
You can even open carry or conceal carry but you MUST HAVE A CHP!!
Thanks for reading this...hope to see you all there.
