Since no one has mention it. Who is up for a road trip?

Code:
*********************************************************
1.  VCDL to address Norfolk City Council - plan on being there!
*********************************************************

It's time for VCDL's to address Norfolk City Council on the Norfolk 
Police harassing two gun owners and charging a third under an invalid 
ordinance, all within a few weeks of each other, and all at different 
locations.

In order to give all of you plenty of notice so that you can attend, 
VCDL will address Norfolk City Council on Tuesday, August 28th - 
about a month from now.

You should plan on arriving at 7 PM.

If you want to speak, you can sign up at the meeting or you can call 
757-664-4268.  You don't have to speak, just having City Council see 
a room full of "Guns Save Lives" buttons is important.

I have already signed up and indicated what I will be speaking on, so 
Norfolk City Council should be fully aware that we are coming.

As you might imagine, we want a *huge* turnout, not only from the 
Tidewater members, but from across the state.  We want the message to 
be loud and clear, "NO MORE HARASSMENT OF LAW-ABIDING GUN OWNERS!" 
and "NO MORE ILLEGAL ORDINANCES!"

Hope to see you there next month!
Post 1600 woot!

Yessss!!!

This should be fun! Can I assume there will be some "fellowship time" in a local restaurant after said event? I think we ought to go to some place in the Waterside complex. It's easy to find for those whe aren't familiar with Norfolk, there's plenty of parking, and the symbolism will be really rich. Who knows, some of the cops who figured in this might be on duty that evening!.

EDIT - not gonna make it. Family member has medical issues with doctor appointments that interfere.

I'm with you in spirit.

I'd like to. I'm a tentative "yes" - got some issues to clear up first.

Probably JUST me, not family, though I'm not sure yet. Would like a carpool buddy if that happens.

I'm on the other side of the water but a stone's throw from the ferry.
Anybody know if you can carry on the ferry?

I'm tired, thinking "ferry carry" to myself just cracked me up. :lol:
