Has anybody noticed that, while they're asking for $50 each, the NRA, consisting of "only" 3.4 million members, spent $11 million, which comes out to less than a measly $4 per member?
 
Annual memberships are 35? Assoc. memberships are $10. I joined as a life member a long time ago & don't pay any new dues. They also spend money on other things, too.
 
Good luck everyone....I'll send some positive vibes your way from NOVA!
 
heres the SITREP from Maryland_Alert:

Mass suicides by animals in nature just don't happen, even though a
myth created by a Disney feature on lemming mass suicide is widely
believed (see:http://www.snopes.com/disney/films/lemmings.htm )

However, humans, supposedly more intelligent than lemmings, do engage
in self-destructive behavior and in mass suicides. Usually, such
events are sad, not spectacular, and painful to watch.

Tonight, we have an opportunity to watch Democrats act in a
party-destructive way by contributing to a CeaseFire (MAHA renamed)
fundraiser.

It wouldn't be fair to characterize this "mass party suicide" as
spectacular, but past experience indicates it is well worth watching.
Rather than depressing, it should be a joyous occasion since the
sooner these Democrats self-destruct the sooner a viable and freedom
respecting party can emerge to replace it.

The mansion has a brick walkway crossing its front from one side to
the other. It is reasonable to believe that both paths will be used.

There is a sidewalk in front and on the sides of the mansion where we
should gather to demonstrate our displeasure with the Democrats.
Under no circumstances obstruct anyone or be rude. Good humor and
gentle derision will do what we need.

Hope to see many of you for the start of this event (7:00pm) to give
raspberry cheers to the participants as they arrive.

Phil

PS: Thanks to C.A.F.E. for the message alerting us to this event
(see the message
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Maryland_Alert/message/1110 ). I hope
that many of you will turnout for the start of this event (7:00pm) to
give raseberry cheers to the participants.

Directions to the event given in the CeaseFire announcement include:
From DC
495 to I-270 (exit 34)
Follow I-270 North to Rt. 28 West
Follow Rt. 28 West 4.5 miles
Take second entrance into Kentlands at Rachel Carson E.S. (Right turn)
Follow signs to Kentlands Mansion

At dark, it can be a bit difficult to see the signs to Kentlands
Mansion and I didn't see Rachel Carson, so I would add the following.

While on 28 heading west, you will cross Muddy Branch Rd (traffic
light). In about 1.3 miles at another light, you sill cross a street
named Main (on the right) and Owens Glen Way (on the left). On the
left you will see a brick wall mounting a sign "Potomac Valley". Take
the next right on Tschiffely Square Rd. Keep on Tschiffely for about
.25 mile turning right on Leakes Lot Way. It will come to a cross
street after a right curve. Go left (I believe it will be Firehouse
Lane) and within 100 yard you will see a lake to your right. Take a
right on Inspiration (or if you miss it, the next street is Briscoe).
The mansion will be on your left facing towards 28, the lake and
Inspiration which crosses in front of the mansion. You should see it
within 100 yards of your right turn on Inspiration.
 
GWAG (I hope you don't mind the acronym),

I'll be heading down there around 4pm...with traffic, and allowing myself time to get lost I should be there around 5:15 or so. :uhoh:
 
Somebody PLEASE take some pictures so that I can live vicariously through you.

A picture of Leah Barret would be nice so that we can compare her to the Gail Gunn creature from the Tetra-Pak web site to expose her for the fraud that she is.
 
Well a big thanks to the other THREE peopl who showed up: Greg Marsh (A longtime lurker here at THR!) Phil Lee, and John Latham (Anti Statist League and the Tyranny Response Team)

I have some pictures; I'll try to get them up here.

Uh-oh, my lurking has been discovered! I've been keeping up with the MD related posts since the legislative hearings last year. It was nice to meet "Spot77", Phil and John last night and I hope to meet more of you next week at On Target. I'm also a member so I could call to reserve a lane in advance if that would help. I guess I'll ask that question in the Rallying Point thread now that I know how to post messages. How do you get the smilie face into the message?

Welcome aboard Greg!

It was great talking with you last night. If just ONE person that attended the event has a change of heart, then I'll consider it worth the long trip.

Having Greg register at THR makes me wonder how many other "lurkers" are there from Maryland. I have almost 70 Md THR users on my "buddy list". If half of the people on that list could've attended along with people from the TRT, ASA, AGC, etc, we would have overshadowed Ceasfire's "crowd" of 50 people or less EASILY.

Greg, I have a little menu next to the text screen where I'm posting that shows all of the little faces. You might have to go into "user cp" to set it up.
 
Oh, btw, Greg is holding a very spontaneous sign that I made in the car on the ride down. It's poor construction should in NO WAY reflect upon him! :)

Notice the High Road being used as a reference tool?

Print a sign from your laptop, thrown in a 5 gal paint stir, an old cardboard box and and a staple gun and voila! Instant protester!
 
yep, we have had a hard time getting gunnies to show up for an anti MMM rally at a gunshow on a Saturday.

if they had 50 then their numbers are down from last year
but a few last year were Leah's neighbors.

was Garagiola there?
 
Being forced to stay outside, and with only Greg and I on one side, and John and Phil on the other, I didn't get a good look.....but I'm 90% sure Garagiola was there. It was hard to tell by peeking through the windows ;)


Duncan too....so it appeared.

There seemed to be a lot of "old" people there (no offense to the elders)....people of uh...60 years +
