"Fort Washington show info: We originally intended to have the show March 16 & 17, but the building owners have returned our deposit check and at this time will not renew our contract saying only this. "Current circumstances require that we be more careful with the shows that we permit within the Expo Center."
We have done 19 shows in that facility since 1993 without any incident which would prompt that decision. If you enjoyed that show and are unhappy that we cannot have the show, write to Fort Washington Expo Center 1100 Virginia Drive Suite 100, Fort Washington, PA 19034
or email: info@fortwashingtonexpo.com and express your displeasure with their refusal to renew our contract."
Review post 14 and 17 for ammo. These have been sent to fax number 215.641.2640

Here's part of my email to them.
"I have attended shows at the Expo Center in the past, however, based on this very silly reason for cancelling the MAAC show, I and my family will no longer attend any shows of any type at the Expo Center. Afterall, current circumstances require that we be more careful with the shows that we attend at the Expo Center."
to your comment below. good stuff
all is fair in this war. Time to label this group for what they are?
Israel says U.S. gun-control groups should be considered terrorist allies. Fort Washington is exhibiting these same terrorist group profiles. Never give up. Semper Fi
here is some more stuff.

THE FOUNDATION
"Put none but Americans on guard tonight." --George Washington

What particular group of Americans do you want to get rid of? Honest citizens or predators. American Citizens wants to get rid of the predators.

Just because we the audience tolerance your stupid gun control laws it does not mean we exhibit stupidity.

Subject: My pledge to honor the founders. Let us not forget!
I sat in a movie theater watching "Schindler's List," asked myself, "Why didn't the Jews fight back?" Now I know why.
I sat in a movie theater, watching "Pearl Harbor" and asked myself, "Why weren't we prepared?" Now I know why.
Civilized people cannot fathom, much less predict, the actions of evil people. On September 11, dozens of capable airplane passengers allowed themselves to be overpowered by a handful of poorly armed terrorists because they did not comprehend the depth of hatred that motivated their captors.
On September 11, thousands of innocent people were murdered because too Many Americans naively reject the reality that some nations are dedicated to the dominance of others. Many Americans naively reject the reality that the domestic enemy within are dedicated to the dominance of others.
Many political pundits, pacifists and media personnel want us to forget The carnage. They say we must focus on the bravery of the rescuers and ignore the cowardice of the killers.
They implore us to understand the motivation of the perpetrators. Major television stations have announced they will assist the healing process by not replaying devastating footage of the planes crashing into the Twin Towers.
I will not be manipulated.
I will not pretend to understand.
I will not forget.
I will not forget the liberal media
who abused freedom of the press to kick our country when it was vulnerable and hurting. I will not forget that CBS anchor Dan Rather preceded President Bush's address to the nation with the snide remark, "No matter how you feel about him, he is still our president."
I will not forget that ABC TV anchor Peter Jennings questioned President Bush's motives for not returning immediately to Washington, DC and commented, "We're all pretty skeptical and cynical about Washington."
And I will not forget that ABC's Mark Halperin warned if reporters weren't informed of every little detail of this war, they aren't "likely nor should they be expected - to show deference."
I will not underestimate the intelligence of our adversary who patiently planned and meticulously orchestrated a devastating act of war.
I will not forget that the terrorists desire a world society where women are chattel and freedom is forbidden.
I will not isolate myself from my fellow Americans by pretending an Attack on the USS Cole in Yemen was not an attack on the United States of America.
I will not forget the Clinton administration equipped Islamic terrorists and their supporters with the world's most sophisticated Telecommunications equipment and encryption technology, thereby compromising America's ability to trace terrorist radio, cell phone, land lines, faxes and modem communications.
I will not be appeased with pointless, quick retaliatory strikes like Those perfected by the previous administration.
I will not be comforted by "feel-good, do nothing" regulations like the silly "Have your bags been under your control?" question at the airport.
I will not be influenced by so called, "antiwar demonstrators" who exploit the right of statement to chant anti-American obscenities.
I will not forget the moral victory handed the North Vietnamese by American war protesters who reviled and spat upon the returning soldiers, airmen, sailors and Marines.
I will not be softened by the wishful thinking of pacifists who chose reassurance over reality.
I will embrace the wise words of Prime Minister Tony Blair who told Labor Party conference, "They have no moral inhibition on the slaughter of the innocent. If they could have murdered not 7,000 but 70,000, does anyone doubt they would have done so and rejoiced in it?
There is no compromise possible with such people, no meeting of minds, no point of understanding with such terror. Just a choice: defeat it or be defeated by it. And defeat it we must!"
I will force myself to:
-hear the weeping
-feel the helplessness
-imagine the terror
-sense the panic
-smell the burning flesh
-experience the loss
-remember the hatred I sat in a movie theater,
watching in quiet reverence as the blood of young soldier's turned the sands of Normandy beach red in "Private Ryan" and asked myself,
"Where did they find the courage?"
Now I know.
We have no choice.
Living without liberty is not living

"You can't ever wipe out evil," Fox News Channel star O'Reilly tells the new issue of Esquire. "But it's like if someone comes to your house bent on killing you or your family, what do you do? You don't negotiate with them. You don't try and understand why they're coming in to kill you and your family. You kill them."

For a look at the ugly future if this is not turned around, take a look at "The Raid."
Which is why SAS wants to make the public realize that gun owners can be normal women that you see in the grocery store, the bookstore and at the soccer fields.
Besides, 1776 was an uphill struggle, to say the least.
Perhaps those running the facility should be queried as to their thoughts on the above. Perhaps the depth of their understanding of fundamental American concepts should be probed. I think it is time we found out who is merely gutless; who is stupid; and who our true enemies are. Most of those who compromise our way of life are in the first two categories, to be sure. But it is certainly a proper line of inquiry; a necessary step to put the problem makers in the right category.
