Guns Across America -- Sat. Jan. 19

yes, the coverage was spotty. The guys in NY said there were thousands in Albany, and another ralley in Buffalo with a couple thousand at it's peak.

In WA we had a couple thousand + in OLY...look on OCDO for a picture of a black woman Openly carrying an AR...love that picture.

Oregon also says they had a couple thousand in Salem, and local News said supplimental ralley in Couer d'Alane Idaho had over a 1000 attend. Don't know how many in Boise.
 
Heard crickets in relation to the pro gun rally in Albany but lots of reporting for a couple hundred that had a anti gun rally in NYC today. It gets awful frustrating.
 
I was there in Salem OR. Sick as a dog, but I crawled out of bed to be there. There were approximately 1,200 people in attendance. There was only one woman there in opposition. I didn't actually see her, but her picture was in the paper. I saw zero opposition. The local news did report on it briefly, but concluded their report by saying that a national poll still shows that 75% of Americans favor an "assault weapons ban" with similar figures supporting a ban on "high capacity magazines". Given that, from what I've read, there were some 2,000 attendees in New York as opposed to 400 "of the "Million Mom" marchers, I find their claim somewhat dubious.

Iowa Rally

At the state capitol in Des Moines,IA 800 was the estimated number according to the evening news. I attended and the speakers were pretty good. No hecklers showed up though. :D
 
jazzninja: i was at the salem capitol as well the state police said it was more like 2000. either way it was a good turnout considering how cold it was.

hey anti's guess what?? 2000 gun owners in 1 spot and no one was killed!! :eek:
 
Right on Glockstar .40; thanks for being there. I'm not terribly good at estimating numbers, so I generally go conservative. I agree though, excellent turnout. Let's rally more for the next one and maybe I'll see you there.
