Listen folks, I've heard how you would like to go, want to go, or wish you could go.
I'M FED UP WITH YOUR EXCUSES!
When are you going to make your rights a priority over your in-laws coming to town, your shopping date with your wife, or your dog's vet appointment?
This assault on our rights just got real. It is time you make a stand and not just post on this forum. If half of you spent half the time you spend being a post whore on here, out actually doing what needs to be done, we won't be stopped.
Ask for a couple hours off work. Explain to your boss how important this is. Hell, ask him or her to join you. He may see that you are passionate about this, and not just another "here for the paycheck" employee.
NO MORE EXCUSES! Attend the rally, stand up for your rights! Once they are gone, we won't get them back.
Now if anyone needs a ride from Kearney, I will be heading that way. That should eliminate some excuses that it is too far and gas is too expensive. I have room for four, requirements are you shower in the morning before the trip, no smoking in my vehicle, and be on time. I'm traveling two hours and going to spend about $80 on gas, you get a free ride. Willing to pick people up on the interstate along the way, let me know so I can schedule my trip, otherwise I ride alone.
I've heard all the excuses why you can't do this or that, and I don't believe 99% of them. Make this a priority.

Thanks for posting this. I agree completely. You'll have another birthday next year. Your next Saturday is only six days after the rally. You should bring to the rally whoever you're blowing us off for. :)
-
I'll be there.
-
I change plans Thanks Scott, I'm Going Now....
-
Yoo-Rah!

I know we can find you a ride, we need every member there we can get. Can anyone help out Nightraider?
-
I can't help him, but if anyone wants to park around West Cornhusker , near Airport exit in Lincoln, I will have a 2-3 seats for heading downtown. The Haymarket Park lot would be a perfect spot.
-
Front steps I presume. Wish I had an NFOA sweatshirt or a coat. Looking forward to seeing everyone there. Has anyone contacted local media for some publicity?
-
Someone told Crash Davis about the event last night on the KFAB drive time segment. Both Crash and Scott Vorhees(?) 9 - 11 am, seem very friendly to our cause. I think inviting them as citizens might be a good idea and we could get some positive response from them "on air" next week. The power of the media is amazing on the public. It would be nice if we had a little of that power on the side of good.
Anyone here care to put in an official invitation to them?

Since this isn't an official NFOA event, I don't know that an official invitation is in order. You are right though, I would love to see them attend, and they have been supportive of our position. I suggest people send them invitations individually. The more exposure the better.

Well said. I was one that didn't have time. I just changed a couple meetings around and will be going now.
I stand with you brother!

Well said. I was already thinking about going, now I'm going for sure. I'm coming from Omaha, I can take one more (two if the person doesn't mind folding into the back of my Mustang). I live in the Benson-ish area, I can pick people up. (message me or email or whatever) No smoking in the car. Not being terribly familiar with the area around the capital building, where is the best place to park?
-
I just caught the last couple of minutes, but I think Scott Vorhees just gave away three new guns on KFAB. Both Scott and Crash Davis need to be involved in this if possible. They both have been very pro 2A on their shows 9am - 11am, and 4pm - 6:30 pm.
From the prior post, I think it might be a good idea just to call the show and try to do an on air invitation to both the hosts and the listeners of KFAB, who knows how many more people might hear that and come to join us.

I'm going. Just haven't replied yet to all the people who invited me on facebook. :D
-
Crash may be busy with the Big Bucks Classic that is going on this weekend as well, but it wouldn' t surprise me at all if he's going to the rally in Iowa, since he lives there.
-
I have taken tomorrow off to go to Omaha and get some NFOA T-shirts with my wife, So what im saying is I am taking orders. Whoever needs NFOA T-shirts PM me, and I will pick them up tomorrow from RLMoeller's
-
Wusker, you're a good man.
Thanks for your hard work.
-
See ya there!
-
Good job guys, makes me proud to see you putting this first.
I still have one empty seat from Kearney to Lincoln. I'm picking up three people in GI. Don't make me clean my pickup out for nothing.
Lean hard on those who might want to go.
-

Damn glad to hear, who else is following HDHuskers lead? I've got one seat left, who wants it?
-
barry I sent you a msg, you should have 2 seats left. I decided to drag my fiance along since she was kind enough to get that day off so we'll be driving her car out there and making a day of it. (Ive been craving Valentinos grand buffet!)

Last I knew, Valentino's was a "Gun free zone". :(

Thanks SBarry for helping me out. I got Hermit to lend me a hand, so it looks like it is confirmed that I am going now.
Anyone else need a ride? I will not let the car situation or gas money thing be an issue. We will find a way for you to get there if you are patriotic enough to make a stand with us. Therefore you have no excuse to not be there with us.
We need women and teenagers there with us too, so bring your wives, girlfriends and children (multiple children ok, no multiple wives or girlfriends please.)

Can win em all

LOL. I will be there. Planning on the wife comming She's 9 months pregnant and we have a 2 year old so that will be interesting. I've seen some things on you tube and read some stuff on here that got me motivated from "if I can" to "WE need to go". Thanks RLMoeller and SBarry
-
I was at the Valentinos Grand Buffet last night, thought they were posted as well so left the kel-tec under the front seat get to the door and no sign. Checked my Criminal Protection site App and says other two locations nearby are still posted bu Grand buffet is not.

Yep after a short debate with myself, in which I won of course, I will be bringing my kids along. and have asked many freinds, man and womans, to join us. We NEED to show that this ain't just about the grizzly old gun nuts or the Tacticool kids. This has to do with EVERY AMERICAN!
-
As of now, my truck is full. I'm bringing four people along. If you would still like to go, get ahold of me and I will find a way for you to get there.

Last time I was there I searched for a sign and found none, but still be careful because I don't think they intentionally removed it
-
Bonehead manuever #1 of my day, I didnt pay attention to FarmerRicks post of their times or check it myself. I drove all the way to Omaha and the store is closed! Rlmoeller sent me a PM saying that he will have a box of T-shirts at the rally tomorrow I gave him your shirt sizes. It's Not a very long drive home from Omaha to Lincoln, but it can be when your wife is smiling and laughing at you the whole time.
-
Some members want to meet for coffee beforehand, therefore..
I have the meeting room reserved for us at The Egg and I.
The Egg and I
1601 Q Street
Lincoln NE
The room is reserved for 10:30, it is under my name (Scott Barry).
It will fit around 20 people, If more come we will be fine. I will see you there.

Im not sure if we want signs or not, but I am listing some that I have in mind:
Its a Right. Not a privilege.
Gun Control is not about Guns, it is about Control
More guns = Less Crime
Gun free zones = Victim concentration camp
Right to bare arms doesn't mean keep them in a safe.
Where the people fear the Govt, there is tyranny. Where the Govt fears the People, there is Liberty
Disarmament always precedes tyranny.
Oh, if guns were illegal no one would have one? Please, tell me more about how nobody can buy drugs.
There is no Left or Right, there is only tyranny and freedom
Chicago: #1 in gun control, #1 in murder and gang violence.
84,999,989 American Gun Owners killed no one yesterday!
Since WWII ALL but 1 multiple person public shooting occurred in a gun free zone
2191 people are SAVED every day by the lawful use of a firearm.
Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance: They are the peoples' Liberty's teeth-George Washington
The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws. - Tacitus
The greatest danger to our American freedoms is a govt that ignores the Constitution - Thomas Jefferson
A free people ought not only be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government. - George Washington
