We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

I thought it was pretty comical, too. I don't remember how many of them there were last year, but they looked like they had sucked lemons when they saw Bridget carrying her Glock.
I remember Lori What'sHerName with the memorable posterior (along with her personal cameraman) and a couple elderly folks. they didn't even have a dozen... It was memorable because she kept standing right in front of where we were sitting, so I may as well memorize what was inches from my face... :-X
:lol:I have that picture of Lori somewhere and her memorable line to me "Can't we all just get along".:lol:
Probably not Lori....probably not!

Not really, something else is A MUST SEE!!! According to an ABC's GMA interview of 27 Dec 2010, the good Colin Goddard is NOT anti-gun!!!:exclaim: Who knew! On the contrary, he has actually gone hunting and to the range and and and is not at all anti-gun as ABC touts... just enforce the laws on the books.... just write COMMON SENSE laws... do this and we can all get along. The ABC report does mean something doesn't it? After all ABC is soooo unbiased just like the rest of the MSM.:banghead: Guys like this are too much and a sad bunch to watch.

May I join your team? I'm a "virgin" at this, so be gentle.

Absolutely. Just look for me in the morning. You can recognize me as the scrawny guy being abused by ed.

How did it go guys? Were the numbers good this year? Were the anti's as openly rude, crude and disrespectful as in years past?

PVC estimated 300 I think? The Antis stayed away until 3pm. I didn't see any.

Hopefully next year I will not be sick and can make it.
There were some of the regulars missing but the organization was better this year I think.
I left Jane with Joe's group and I made my rounds, then went out to get pictures.
While we all agreed that numbers overall (all groups in the Capital) were down, you still couldn't go anywhere without seeing GSL stickers. Even down in the Bottom later, stickers all over.
The police had a new trick this year. They were asking how many guns you were carrying then wanted to know why you had more than one.
They also took a rolled up banner away from a Bike member (wearing a GSL sticker). They told him he couldn't have it inside.
There were a LOT of cops including a very young dog and mounted Richmond Cops.

Should have said "haven't you heard of the New York Reload?"

Good turnout, seemed to go smoothly indoors. Our team visited individual legislators for our team members after we hit our assigned rooms. Lots of orange stickers, actually got to sit down with two senators (Fairfax and Hampton/NN/Poquoson).
Rally attendance seemed slightly lower than last year but may have been due to cold weather.

Most answered, "Because I can" or some variant.
My chosen response to "fishing expedition" questions is a non-response.
The simple reply I give is "No thank you." Never fails to draw a puzzled expression.
Actually had a nice conversation with the two Capital Police at the express lane entrance during a lull. I think we parted with a better understanding of each other

Got on the elevator with Karolyn.. There were like 5 55-50 year old ladies... they must have already been talking about us in the elevator.. as one said too her friend.. "Look! She's got one!". The lady she was speaking to then ask Karolyn, "Does it have bullets in it!!??!??". Karoyln smiled and said "of course". The one of the other ladies mumbled.. "I had to dump my purse at the front door and they let THESE IDIOTS in with GUNS!!!" We bid them a nice day and got off on our floor.

I'd guess John Miller.
At one past Lobby Day, my 2 brothers and I sat down in Miller's office and spoke with him. Maybe it helped that he recognized my oldest brother as his family practice physician. Miller was newly elected at the time, and was very non-committal to anything resembling an actual position. He was pleasant, and seemed open to consider our points, but ended up with a voting record not to my liking.
