Kudos to everyone who went!

So, I received this email yesterday:

"I'm trying to speak with some protesters who were at yesterday's gun
demo at the State House...A twitter search shows that Matt DeVito attended"

After calling and finding out that they are a VERY LIBERAL newspaper, I gave them the straight facts and let them know that YES I WAS THERE AND I WAS NOT PROTESTING, I WAS DEMONSTRATING AGAINST THE FACT THAT MY RIGHTS WERE BEING INFRINGED...they then wrote the following article:

All things considered that seems to have gone pretty well...

That actually seemed like a pretty even-handed overview of the event and the views of people there. I especially liked the quote from the person who doesn't own guns, but objects to our constitutional rights being infringed.

Seriously. That was way better than what I was expecting.

yup. They could have crucified gunowners

Agree that for the liberal media it's not bad. Notice how they're all saying "high powered rounds" though? That needs to be countered.

You can post a comment as a guest, I did...

I was there. Great event. Ready for the next one. Showed some photos around the range on Sunday. So lets get a big old bus full of Swamp rats like me to the next one.

 

[Snu66y]

I was there. Proud to see such a large, respectful crowd. Boston Herald write-up was pretty good.

[MP-In-The-Wind]

I was there with a friend and his son. I agree...it was probably the safest place in Boston!

I was there as well, it was quite impressive to see so many from all walks of life there supporting the 2nd.
