someone should bring a copy of the Constitution, state and federal, in case they dont know or have copies of it to guide them by as the legislate on our behalf, of the people and for the people- so to speak.

Count me in. I was in on the helmet repeal rallies too. They worked. I'll be there and I will print out and hang posters in my area when they are ready.

I'll plan to be there, but you should read this concerning open carry at the event.

City of Madison Statutes said:

It shall be unlawful for any person to possess, carry or go armed with any firearm on or about
their person within the City of Madison, unless the firearm is both unloaded and enclosed or
encased within a carrying case. This provision does not apply to the following:
(a) Any peace officer or law enforcement officer.
(b) Any member of the armed forces or national guard while going armed in the line of duty;
(c) A correctional officer while going armed in the line of duty;
ETC ETC ETC

The list goes all the way to (Q), none of the allowances would apply to our situation

There is also restrictions that if not used in one of those legal capacities that the gun must have a trigger lock on it, as well as restrictions banning handguns with barrel lengths under four inches (sub-compacts beware). Food for thought, you might want to think about letting people know that they can't carry there.
