I can't wait until the Liberals hear about this.

But, if all their mayors, councilmen and NEA reps can march in the latest Gay Rights Parade to show off their support for the latest perversion, why should they care if other government employees show up at gun shows to show off their support of the Constitution?

After all, these groups are all involved in using the things they are demonstrating.

The liberals don't care. When Los Angeles County had a gun show at its fairgrounds, the California National Guard was always present and proudly accounted for. Zev Yaraslovsky, the L.A. County Supervisor that had the gun show banned, paid no attention to the military recruitment booths, only the Nazi flags at the memorabilia booths. The gun show ban was NOT about guns, but Semitism.

Good recruiting technique. I would hope that when recruiting, they would look for someone who at least knows how to handle a weapon!

That's really cool. My husband and sons were at a gunshow in Bealton, VA this weekend, and are at the NRA range testing their new "toys" now. Maybe the VA National Guard should consider setting up a booth there?

The flier I received in the mail said the Bealton gun show is 12/22 to 12/23. Hope I didn't miss it, even though it's usually the same.

Is that in Roanoke? Looks like the Civic center.

Best wishes to your son and all of our fighting men and women - our best and brightest.

Do you live in Bealton? If so you are the very first person I've ever met online that is a Bealton resident or even knows of the towns existence.

My mom is buried at Cedar Grove Cemetary and there is a plot there (the very last in the cemetary) for my wife and I, left to us by my beloved mom, who passed 5 years ago OCT.

Mom's family (now just her brothers), owns a 900 acre dairy farm in Bealton. That farm has been in the family continuously since the 1600's. I don't talk to them much. All of them are farm folks, very simple, earthy (!!) PURE Democrat and would never believe that their beloved RATS want to take their huntin' guns! They think I'm a nut for my M1A and fail to see how their Remington semi-auto .30-06 is in any kind of similar category. But I'm glad for the burial plots. ANY place in the South but my home of Miami, Florida. I do miss my mom, especially at the holidays. God Bless and Merry Christmas.

Actually I live up 17 a bit near the GEICO building. I won't be there for long though, the Old Lady got orders to New Orleans. We sold our 5 acre lot and our house is under contract. I'll miss this area, It's the best area I've lived in and I've lived in allot of places. I got very familiar with Bealton by working at Van Luven Heating and Air for a time. I spent many an hour and many a mile going all around that area. Very pretty country and so different from the Fredericksburg Stafford area which is only a few miles away. Merry Christmas!

Uh oh, after reading your tagline ("If you don't let Liberals win every game, they walk off with the football"-Ann Coulter) I may need to change mine.

No apologies needed for the vanity, Brother. It's a good thing, to see my fellow Guardsmen out there letting people see and talk to them.
