Gun Rights Across America is hosting the Second Guns Across America Nationwide Rally to say, “Stand Your Ground!”

With corruption at every corner and our Second Amendment Rights being trampled on, GRAA asks you to come out, bring your family, signs and your unwavering American Pride and peacefully assemble. Our own ability to defend ourselves from a tyrannical Government, and from those that wish to do us harm is being threatened now. We are not criminals, we are law abiding American citizens! We are mothers, fathers, soldiers, veterans and your every day man, woman and child. We walk among you every day. We will no longer let the misinformed and uninformed classify us into a genre that is not ours. We are American. We are protectors of the Second Amendment, we are the majority and we will Stand Our Ground!

The GRAA Team is working non-stop trying to coordinate every state. Please check back periodically for updates and details. We also know that like many of us, a majority of you will be attending church on Sunday morning. Please note this is why the event is scheduled to start at High noon and run for at least 2 hours.

Last year this thing was BIG!
I hope it's even bigger this time.

I'll be there, celebrating my freedom and exercising my rights,,,,

So how do us non-FB Neanderthals get information about these events?

First link requires sign-in.

Hadn't tried the second link when the first didn't work.

I see now the Ohio link does not require sign-in, but the national one does.

Of course, I am more interested in the national since I'd like to know what will happen in Texas.

Naturally, I only clicked the Ohio link and when it didn't require a sign in, didn't try the national link. :oops:

Not enough time until the event to get it right. Not enough organization and publicity.

It's better to not hold such an event than one poorly planned and executed. Gives much fodder to the Obama worshiping Lewinsky main stream media.

I wish them well, but I predict the sound of broken glass.

This is the event that drew around 1,000 people last year.

http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories ... dreds.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The Dispatch estimated between 700 and 900. I only heard about that one in December of '12 and didn't have time to put it on my schedule.

Is there a difference in the organization of this one?

Regardless, I'll be able to attend. I'll try to remember my fluorescent orange cap. Makes for an easy starting point for counting the crowd.

You are such a pessimist
We had two or three days to get the anti MAIG rally together where we outnumbered them 10 to 1, and as MWSY notes, much less time last year.
I'd much rather you drive down and join us than have you stay home and read about another good one in the paper.

Won't you join us?

C - I tend to limit my public appearances due to personal issues. But, thank you for the kind invitation. I wish you the best in this endeavor.
