Done, it hasn’t been posted yet. I suspect the *system* is in overload. Heh. Are you going tomorrow?

I can’t. We homes school and my wife works nights so tomorrow I have my two boys. I want to go but it’s all but impossible.
I wish you could be there darling SG...I know you will be in spirit!
It’s going to be mobbed....and go into the *wee* hours...I suspect I’ll not be able to stand for the whole duration.
I hope those who are lucky enough [in this economy] who have jobs/and can’t go, will at least write to the committee and flood their inboxes.
Hypocrites on display.
If I still lived in Virginny, I’d be there, fer shure, fer shure!
It is just too fer to drive FRom Floriduh, though, so just pretend I’m there holding your electric mittened hand! LOL!
Dress warm, wear your electric underwear, mittens and socks, and GIVEMHELL!
Fer me and the rest of your Second Amendment FRiends!
You wouldn't like the cold-snap we've been having. Stay warm. Smooches!
I’ve submitted written testimony to the hearing, but because of a much of medical stuff with my family I cannot attend in person.
I’ve had this hearing on most of the afternoon and the testimony is at least 30:1 pro gun.
