Chas, get off your pompous butt. Me, apologize???!!! You are nuts and insulting.

You have no idea of my background with Leo in places you wouldn't drive much less walk.

I DEMAND AN APOLOGY FROM YOU.

AR was good enough to say he was sorry and miss understood. I completely accept and and move on. You however, are overreaching and overreacting in a very immature manner.

Would you rather of me not posted ANYTHING about the event??!!

I sincere hope you stay home. You are the type of person that is not needed and quite frankly, you disgust me as a moderator.

And I'll make this easy for you... I'm done with this forum. Been reading from this site since October and learned a few things despite my background, but since I'm now posting I've learned a valuable lesson from you.

I hope we do not ever meet

Goodbye.

Ps. Thank you handog but "Charles" has crossed the line with me. What he wrote was truly uncalled for and I do not tolerate disrespect. I give it and expect it.

climbed into the dumpster and salvaged their stuff we made out real well on their fight.

We can't afford to fight among ourselves. This will play into the anti gun crowd's hands
They will get their agenda thru while we fight among ourselves.
We need to stick together and be on the same team or we are doomed

No agument here.. Unless someone besides my wife calls me stupid. ;)

Self-defense trainers teach avoidance and de-escalation. Lawful gun owners use force reluctantly and only in the gravest extreme when their lives are in immediate danger.
Responsible armed people function as the peacekeepers of the society. Unlike police, they will never give you a speeding ticket or ask for tax money to pay for their guns.

I just looked at your FB page. The cover photo has text embedded that I've typewritten word-for-word into the quote above.

I came into this thread late, and missed not only the OP link ot the FB page but also Purplehood pointing this out (with no response).

I have no intent to provide anyone with 'protection'. I am interested in self-defense only.

I find the highlighted quote offensive and stupid.

Offensive - you're throwing LEOs under the bus
Stupid - you sound like you think you're a better "peacekeeper" than a trained LEO ... this is what SCARES the fence-sitters, that we're all just a bunch of vigilantes and cop wannabes (like George Zimmerman, remember him?)

Seriously, in all due respect, I'd like an explanation ... I'm seriously considering not attending based on this text, which reads like a "mission statement"

Well for starters, it's not my Facebook account. I don't even have one therefore its not my statements an no response from me needed. However, since tou posted this,I highly suggest that before you speak or type you look for my avatar or name anywhere on the fb page. You made an poor assumption.

Secondly, you're a big boy and can make up your own mind. I suggest you get on Facebook and ask the page owner.

And no disrespect intended.. I'll call bull on you. The minute you used the word "stupid" directed at me you lost the respect battle and my respect.

Here ya go..

I'll be there anyway but I want to know what to expect. I think its critical to the success of these events that there is some sort of official event organizers to direct the rally so things don't develop into a mass confusion and chaos more than any rally already has the potential to be.

I have not been able to find out much more than there is a rally on 1/19. The event is posted on many websites but only offers date and time and no other info.

There is an organization to it but you'll need to go into Facebook to grab the information. From what I've been told there are speakers. The fb link is thru the original thread posting.

A few thoughts

I'm glad this thread has taken off. We need to exercise our 1st amendment rights just like the left does. We as a group tend to be quiet, go about or business, non radical, tax paying and responsible individuals. But now is the time to stand up and be heard loud and clear.

On the topic of the left, they and the gun grabbers and their ilk will be there as well. It is Austin after all. Rules of engagement are to not engage or argue or incite any conflict as that is what they want and will play into their hands. Let them do their thing. Take the high ground as we will out number them greatly.

Signs - keep it simple and easily readable by a camera. Yes the press will be there. Some very good suggestions earlier in the thread. I'm going with "PRO 2A - it's my right!"

Looking forward to seeing everyone that can make it. If you can't make it you'll at least be there in spirit that day.

Keep up the fight and the pressure on state and federal legislators. You put them there, you can remove them.

I was told by the state leader that the rally starts at noon. Probably last a couple of hours or more. He said to bring pro 2A signs or banners. Dress is respectful. We don't want to look or seem like that occupy bunch.

Wow, am I disappointed.

Thank you. Spread the word.

There are state leaders on the Facebook page. Contact them to coordinate.

(I hope I got the link ok)
