As I was attempting in hopes of drawing in of the women of our state in personal right to carry, your correct the press didn't have the coverage I had also hoped it would be.

I dont get what you guys are talking about.

Our rally was the lead story on both KLKN (ABC-8) and KOLN (CBS-10/11) last night at 10pm and that is also their lead story right now on their websites.

The right to life march that had probably 4 to 5 times more people attend their rally two hours prior did not even get a mention on Lincoln tv news last night.

I personally think that makes a major statement.



NOW, on the other hand, the Lincoln Urinal Star does not make one mention online anywhere that I can find.  I dont subscribe to the hard copy, so maybe there was something in this mornings paper that is not online yet, but knowing how far left they lean, no coverage at all does not suprise me.


Overall,  I think it was a successful event and was carried out very responsibly.

KETV 7 in Obamaha had a story on their 6 and 10pm news last night, but I can't find anything on their website about it.

KMTV 3 in Obamaha had a story on their website, but no video. 


UK Guardian link to coverage of the many rallies nationwide: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2265174/Gunning-change-Thousands-armed-protestors-gather-state-capitols-pro-assault-rifle-rallies-country.html

Hopefully we'll see and increase in numbers here on the NFOA and activism to or reps both State and U.S. wise.... just Like Sen Kinter said to be effective YOU MUST CONTACT Your REP.... contact, contact, contact, contact.... I would think then maybe they'll get the idea. By email, phone, and the letter.

I have heard of it, but a Friday is the worst day to do this for me

That was not a bad article. Could have been worse for sure.  ::)

Thanks to everyone who came out! Seems to have generated some serious chatter. I believe it went a long ways towards raising awareness and showing opposition to the current media hoopla.

Sorry I was not able to make it.
