Ugh, these people are such creeps.

I read that as Moms Demand Lemonade Action and thought I went to the seedier side of the forums..

I'm thinking seriously about going.  Kind of curious as to what goes on at something like that.  Anyone else plan to attend?

If you're on the NJ2AS Facebook group, there is a plan developing for a counter protest.

I'm not a Facebook guy, so I'm not privy to that stuff. Plus, I was not really looking to be confrontational with them, more to just go and see what it's about. But if I go, I'll look for the NJ2AS group.

It's not a NJ2AS thing, just some random people.

Maybe weather will change their minds. 

It would be fun to hand out signs or stickers like this

 

 

 

 

Go out shout "Don't drink the koolaid"!

I drove down there last night to check it out.  Had a hard time finding the "rally," as there were just 5 or 6 people standing around a table.  I politely asked what was going on, and they asked if I would like to sign a petition to urge Congress to pass "common sense" gun laws.  I asked which ones in particular they had in mind, and one lady was unable to answer me, but another one told me they wanted more background checks and laws so guns could not be sold to terrorists.  I advised them that our governor had already signed off on a law prohibiting people on the Terrorist Watch List from purchasing firearms.  I was not confrontational enough to ask if they really believed that terrorists would go through legal channels to obtain weapons.

 

They seemed like sincere, well-intended people who just did not have a clue.  I think all of us agree that we're against gun violence.  The question just becomes what are we going to do to stop it?  I took solace from the fact that people walking by showed little if any interest in what they were doing.  They offered me a cup of lemonade, and I drank it.  So far it does not seem to have had any effect on me.

Thanks for the report

 

Based on NJ.com pimping the event, you would think that there would be thousands there.

 

(Not that it would stop them from reporting it as such)

We all know what the road to hell is paved with. It is always good to remember that most people just want what they think is best. Politicians however are often power hungry ass hats.

These aren't the laws you're looking for..... move along....

I went to a "gun control meeting" in my town shortly after Newtown.  Much the same.  The big things were they wanted to ban assault weapons, concealed carry in our town,  and hi-cap magazines - completely unaware that NJ already had such restrictions (or defacto restrictions in the case of CC).  Most of the antis aren't freedom haters - just uninformed violence/crime haters - and by and large, all good people trying to do what they see as the moral thing.  I'm not justifying their views, just saying they're mostly not the devious, treasonous types portrayed by the more rabid pro-gun forces.  Though they are susceptible to being used by such people.
