You know what I find really interesting? That you actually have to BUY tickets to attend a debate that concerns an attempt by an elected official to pass a law that bans a currently legal activity.

I have not nor will I.



you need to stay in school and grow up a little bit before you are trusted
I will be sure to take that advice to heart, right away! :quirky
Yeah, so...? We're not supposed to criticize someone if they do something moronic that could paint open carriers in a bad light? and believe me, there have been a few who've done just that. I think it's fair to say that part of the reason that where we're at right now is a result of some open carriers who couldn't be bothered to listen to those who knew better, and just had to push the envelope. So yeah, we certainly have the right to feel annoyed with them. And as far as Pullnshoot being annoyed with or not being annoyed with the Bay Area people, it's irrelevant to whether he should attend or not, since this law affects ALL Californians, not just those in the bay Area.
And another thing, why does he need to "stay in school and grow up a little bit..." He's been active in the open carry movement for a couple years now, and has contributed to the movement. I find it amusing that you claim to have never said anything negative towards another open carrier, nor ever will, but then you type that little barb there...

I have read this post about five times and I still can't figure out what you are saying or even what you are tripping on. Were you trying to insult someone or ?

Patriots all - manya great causehas beendestroyed in the pastby in-fighting. Let's put personalities aside and concentrate on the greater cause here. Remember...while we might not always agree on HOW we do things, we are aiming to achieve the same goal. Keep the eye on the prize and don't get distracted.

How about less infighting and more support for those who are going to be up on stage?

I sincerely hope that this event goes well. A chance to take on Saldana in the Commonwealth Club, and thus be broadcast on NPR as well, is a rare opportunity. Please be prepared to make her look bad with facts, as opposed to the anti-gun rhetoric that she'll be spouting forth. It would do wonders for our cause in this state, and possibly elsewhere (not sure where all this broadcasts to), if this went well and the open carry speakers were both unflappable and well spoken.

Best of luck.

I believe that the link that I am posting is the debate that this thread is about.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-GqhDAkVlg

Can you of you Californians pm me the contact information for the Chief of Police on the panel. I want to write that man a letter. 99.5%........FBS. 99.995 % may be acceptable, but not 99.5%. That is one out of every 200 people.IF you watch the entire video, you will know what I am getting at.
