Good news!

Today at the WA State Capitol in Olympia over 2000 pro second amendment supporters rallied in the cold for freedom!

Despite some mis-communication about start time(10am vs noon)there was an out pouring of folks from all walks of life but it was good to note that at least 50% of the group participants were under the age of 35.

Not all of today's youth are bums.

Most were carrying openly...long guns as well as pistols.

At 10 am there were 100 people.

At 11am there were 300.

At noon there were at least 1200 and the numbers were climbing and I lost track by 1pm.

Bravo!!!!

I am sure I walked past a dozen freepers but I also got to see a bunch of good friends as well.

The BATF & FBI have plenty of pictures and videos of this event in the 2,000 + files they opened today in Olympia Washington.

‘Fraid you’re right. The Fed gumshoes will be all over these events, so participants beware. I’ve seen them at gun shows, they don’t even bother to blend in but show up in biz suits & wearing shades indoors & question those running tables about their 4473’s. Der neue Stasi.
