Closest hotels to the capitol for Fri and Sat night stays?

The swamps of SETX will be represented.

My wife, 2 sons and by brother-in-law will be there.

Although I am free, my wife it turns out is not (church obligation); so we will not be going. However, we will be attending the Saturday event in Dallas.

Just a heads up.... If anyone reads USA today, Eric was not quoted correctly. It stated that he supported the closing of background check loopholes. Whatever those are! It was almost as they were making it seem he wanted a background check for all sales. He did not say anything to this nature and that is 100% made up! Nice huh?

So we need to make sure we cross our T's and dot our I's on Saturday. We can not rely on the media for non biased coverage. They will be looking for any excuse to nail gun owners.

Here is the article:

Imagine that.

If there are media types there, you can feel free to assume they are not on our side. I'd like to make two points,

1- The media could take video of Mother Theresa and splice it in such a way to make her look like an idiot. And if someone from the media puts a microphone and/or camera in front of you, resist the temptation and ...

2- direct any questions to someone in a leadership position (not sure specifically who that is yet but...) who ought to be expecting the 'gotcha' questioning and have a responsible counter.

Bottom line, is that we are responsible, law-abiding, tax paying citizens peacefully gathering to ensure our Constitutional rights. I'll be there.

My dos pesos.

I was hoping for Colin Noir, or whatever his real name was but hey. We need a good turnout!

Jones is based in the Austin area. I betcha he does show up.

And if he does ...

Lemme talk to 'em. :)

I'll be there with two other guys from the DFW area.

I'm heading to Austin today for some work, I'll probably be there tomorrow. Without going over all the previous pages, is there an approximate head count? ...I'm in the sticks and use an iPhone for Internet so it takes forever to load all the pages. Heck, it took me 3 hours to type this

Good morning all,

My wife and I are driving over to Austin for this event tomorrow. See y'all there!
