sw_florida, one of the people who organized the marches in Ohio told me that such marches are "a bell that can only be rung once." By that he meant that marches only garner so much attention, and should be used when the timing is the best.
In hindsight, we probably should have done marches in late 2005, before the floor votes and subsequent veto override votes in the senate and assembly. But, at that time, it looked like we had the votes to override. We weren't expecting another Gary Sherman, but that's what we got.
There are numerous reasons why our friends at the Capitol don't want open carry marches right now, and I agree with them.
Ultimately, though, the question is what the intended outcome of the marches will be. If anyone thinks that marches are going to change Doyle's mind, they're wrong.
We have a different situation in WI under Doyle than Ohio did under Taft. We have a different situation here than Minnesota did, as they had the experience of discretionary issue prior to shall-issue, so they didn't have the problems with sheriffs and police chiefs to the extent that we do.
Every state is different.
