The rally begins at noon near the Abraham Lincoln statue along Second Street. A pre-rally is scheduled for 10 a.m. at the Curve Inn, 3219 S. Sixth Street Road. A post-rally also will be held at the Curve Inn. About 300 people have confirmed on Facebook and another 600 invitations were sent out, she said. People are encouraged to bring pro-gun signs.

Stefan Molyneux If you are for gun control, then you are not against guns, because the guns will be needed to disarm people. So it’s not that you are anti-gun. You’ll need the police’s guns to take away other people’s guns. So you’re very Pro-Gun, you just believe that only the Government (which is, of course, so reliable, honest, moral and virtuous…) should be allowed to have guns. There is no such thing as gun control. There is only centralizing gun ownership in the hands of a small, political elite and their minions.

The Madness of the US Gun Culture Media creats more radical people. Meaning those being very different against the norm. A person or a group that is with very unique ideas, not necessarily good ideas that work out well.

Seriously. I'd like to know what type of clientele this bar draws. If they like and cater to bikers, I might like to go and refer some friends there.
