Glad I went, here are some thoughts, observations, and a crappy video showing the turnout.
Five minutes in front of the podium sent me scrambling across the street for a spot in the shade. Too old and fat for that kind of heat.
The guys from a North Shore gun shop were in front of me, I thought I heard them say that that the AG is going after every gun shop that sold on Wednesday. If true, that word needs to get out.
I asked the owner about the AG's hotline, he said "You mean the one where no one picks up the phone?"
At one point Jim Wallace asked everyone to move forward (which everyone immediately did), the police were trying to keep one lane open. "We don't want to be like some protests that block ambulances and emergency vehicles."
Anne Gobi means well, but her speech asking the AG to "work with us" makes me wonder what's going to get horsetraded away. Maybe if we're all good little children we'll get to keep our Ruger 10/22's.
I liked the senator that said he sat through twelve straight hours of public hearings for the gun law that just passed, "and where was Maura Healey then?"
Tie for the best sign between "Heil Healy" and "Army Vet, Bronze Star, (missed this part, someone post the picture), Felon?"
I'm kicking my ass for not buying SKS Ray's Model D when he had it outside the Marlboro gun show.
