Meanwhile KIRO had mention of the impending event this morning, but I didn't see any coverage of the actual event

King5 had some coverage:

Yes. Much of the coverage I saw gave today's rally a quick once-over, then used it to springboard another take on the children's crusade from a day ago, complete with another push for the gun control initiative, a point by point explanation of it, and a mention of how many signatures it needed. (The initiative for school security wasn't mentioned, because it doesn't fit the narrative.)

You forgot my Son too! :cussing: :gibbs:


Yes, but I added him to my post at the same time that I added you.

Are you drunk?

Or is it just me?

You forgot a few gems, but largely the details above summarize it. There was a counter protest. If you look really carefully in the flag skater .gif towards the lower right near the flagpole there is one lady wearing an orange scarf with a "NO MORE GUNS!" poster, and as MadPick and I were walking out, someone asked us (I think seriously) where the Antifa folks were gathering; she may have been a little late, but she would have doubled the size of the counter protest.

Kelly, I saw you with your 2x4 today as you walked by but not able to talk at that moment.
There was a guy over there talking to her trying to explain how things really are but he gave up...lol

So a communist, with an AR, enjoying his 2nd Amendment rights? Or just there in case a gun fight breaks out? Do they freely vote??

I agree, to a point. This is a quote from Vladimir Ilyich Lenin which may help frame these socialist or anarchists' ideology and the impact of their employment of our 2nd amendment rights to work against us:

"The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them."

Useful idiots can be deadly dangerous.

I characterized the JBGC above as either socialists or anarchists, mainly because A) I'm not sure any of them has a clear understanding of each philosophy or where they fall within, and B) because I do not Facebook so it was difficult to find "from the horses mouth" info. Anyone?
