"It goes without saying that a 5-foot, 55-year-old woman may well have more use for a firearm than a 6-foot, 25-year-old man," she told the boardGod made man & woman...Samuel Colt made them equal!

I've always thought it odd that the annual NRA event never makes it further west than Denver.

I attended Saturday - ran out of time before I saw everything in the exhibit hall!
Got a Buck folder with C.J. Buck's autograph!
AND an autographed copy of Zell Miller's new book.
This must really burn the Houston Chronicly Wrong to have to say good things about the NRA...

--it was in Reno in 2002, Salt Lake City about '94---I doubt that it will be in Commiefornia, however until a sea change in that state's attitude---

No doubt more Californians are members of the NRQ than all who live in Utah and Nevada combined.
They shouldn't come here to please the state but to please NRA members.
F**k the state.

This New Yorker understands why the NRA (founded in NYC by the way) will not hold its annual meeting in New York, Boston or anyplace in California outside of the Central Valley.

--Yep--in my 45 years of membership, it has certainly been spread around geographically.
Along with the places you mention, I suspect Chicago will wait a long time---

I have been to two of them they have been a good time.

Doubt it'll be in Washington nor ORegon any time soon either.
See that part about the economic impact?
$50 million?
Wonder if they include the $1000 or so I spent including lodging in Galveston over the weekend?
