Organizers of a rally against mass shootings planned for next month in Washington are expecting up to 500,000 attendees, according to an event permit application. The application filed this week with the National Park Service indicates the “March For Our Lives” will be March 24, although a location hasn’t been determined. The rally, organized by survivors of last week’s school massacre in Parkland, Fla., will have “sister marches” in other major cities, organizers said.

Wouldn’t it be nice if a million people showed up each with an AR15.

Meanwhile, the NRA has 5 million+ confirmed law-abiding members who won’t be at the rally because they likely will be working and are not paid Soros astro-turfers.

Just get someone over to Parkland to remind the kids that unfortunately the good guy didn’t do his job which let the bad guy kill. If the good guy did his job, 17 people wouldn’t be dead and this entire episode wouldn’t have gotten a sniff on the news.

“Organizers plan for 500,000 attendees “

Wait until they see how many show up armed when the 2A finally gets put on the line.

Where was the 500,000 person march after Sandy Hook? After San Bernardino? After Orlando? I think we know the answer - Trump wasn’t president.

To stop guns from killing, it is necessary to disarm law abiding Americans.

What a difference 250 years makes.

In 1764, the Enoch Brown school massacre took place, the locals marched on Philadelphia demanding guns and militia,the police of the day. The Quaker legislature said...”NO GUNS FOR YOU!”
They later relented.

Now we have a school massacre and the people march on Washington, AND THE GOVERNMENT offers GUNS to arm teachers and have armed police. the people scream...”NO, NO! NO GUNS FOR US!”

“The armed deputy who refused to go in in as shots were being fired...”

Last night’s CNN wilding & upcoming hatefests means gungrabbers have gone bare naked & howling “We hate you and we want you dead!!!”. Gun owners are now the class enemy to be exterminated.

Police only clean up the mess afterward. Your first line of defense is yourself. Reluctance against cutting flesh must be overcome by each of us. Arm up and train!

Perhaps there will be some “common sense” gun legislation before that date to suck the wind out of the march. No Bump Stocks. stronger background checks and 21 YO for assault type rifles. The demands of the mob will have to become more radical.

A major rainstorm would be more likely at that time of year, and hopefully heavy rain at that.
