The state senator who spoke said it was the biggest rally he'd seen in Trenton.

I'm sorry guys I drove around the capital for 12 miles and 40 minutes looking for a place to park. I even went to look for something safe on West Hanover st. I couldn't find nothing. I hope the fact that there was no parking was a direct indicator of the turn out. I wish you guys luck and remember you have a friend in Pennsylvania.

Ha! That was right before the loud speakers stopped working. You weren't too far from where we were standing.

Two blocks up from the statehouse was a nearly empty all day parking lot. Sorry that you couldn't find it. You missed a good rally.

Correct. Njpilot, silent service, SS's buddy and I were right up front. There was plenty of parking two blocks from the rally. Has no issues.

Awesome turnout

Sorry I missed you guys. Myself and several other forum members were back on the right.

 

As far as parking, there is a garage just around the corner that had plenty of space, $10 for the time I was there.

Not a bad turnout considering!

Off to dry out some wet gear...

[millsan1 3]

I conservatively estimate the turn out at 1500-2500 people. We were 30-40 wide and 250 feet deep. Divide 250 by 3 (average personal space) you get 80 rows deep. 30 wide times 80 deep =2400. And I think that is on the low side.

 

Had front row seats. It was great. Couple of cringe moments with one or two speakers, but fantastic event.

I'd much have preferred it was snowing instead of that slight, yet ice cold rain. It brought joy to my heart to see so many nice, normal gun owners out there!!! Also, the little cafe down the street made one of the best BLTs i've ever had.

[millsan1 3]

 

Some are blurry. Sorry.

The last picture was probably taken at ~9:30. before the rally started. I'd guess another add around another 2-300 would be a reasonable count once the rally started.

 

Ainsley and the Gun Rabbi did great jobs.

That is me at the beginning of the article. He quoted me correctly. Seemed fair.
