OK, the location for our 6th Monthly Meetup has been vetted and should be another great location.

Details:Old Town Pasadena, Saturday, February 20th, 11am.

Exact meetup location:We're going to meet upin front of Lucky Baldwins at theintersection of E Green and S Raymond Ave.

GFSZWarnings: Old Town Pasadena covers a couple of blocks or more. So here's the zone you want to stay within while UOC'ing.

To the West:Stay on or east of N De Lacey Ave

To the North: Stay on or south of Union St.

To the East: Stay on or west of S Arroyo Parkway

To the South: Stay on or north of Green St.

The west most portion of Old Town Pasadena needs to be avoided due to a high school across the freeway. So do not venture to S Pasadena Ave on the west side.

Feel free to chime in if you plan on attending.

FYI...no other LEA notifications of this event will be made.



ETA: Exact meetup location added. Note the parking will most likely be paid. There is a parking structure at the intersection of Mercentile PL and Raymond. First 90min free $2.00/hr after that, max $6.00.

Yeah, I know its a bit of a haul for you. Maybe you can carpool with Chewy. Since "the right people" have said UOC doesn't hurt the cause anymore maybe the SD crowd is willing to "stand up" now. If so, we could do a SD county meetup for the 7th meetup.

Pasadena is an incorporated city, my understanding is that we could not UOC in incorporated cities. Can someone clarify this for me?

The "right people" are not totally on board with uoc yet. There is a gathering of 2a supporters going on in East Palo Alto that I think they would approve of uoc, but not any other events I inow of.

I made a post about cgf and uoc a few weeks back which stated the disconnct between reality and fiction concerning support. On phone, in class, can't find at moment but take a search and read I. Hell, repost it here. A good search term is "size 12"

The right people aren't completely on board yet, but they are no longer completely against it either since UOC can no longer hurt the LOC cause. A CCW permitee who LOC'd can be thanked for that. Gene said as much right here in the OCDO forum. I'll try to find the thread.

ETA: added the second "completely" above. Found the thread and Gene's statement.

The call to stand down was because permitted LOC was foreseen by quite a few of us. Now that the bill passed already to destroy that option, the stand down is not as important anymore as I said above.

The only remaining detail is the exact meetup location. All other details are in the original post. Hope to see you there.

FYI...to all the newcomers...unlike a lot of the recent NorCal events this is not a media event, this is our event to go out in public while exercising our rights and having a chance to meet in person.
