4. If a million people decked out in camo or ghillie suits carrying guns, some with bayonets, and more than a few locked and loaded or carrying inappropriately or illegally (see "stupid" comment above), it will be a field day for our enemies, so we need to do all we can to avoid that.

If a million people decked out Camo and ghille suits with guns and bayonettes showed up, we would have to decide who we would have run the new government, as I am more than certain that the old one would just leave...LOL

Just an attempt at humor, not making light of your point. I do see the problems inherent in having that many firearms out there with a number of unkowns.

Either one works for me.   ;D

I say we all show up in professional attire, partially just to get the point across, but also so the media will have more trouble judging the color of anyone's neck. If this doesn't go down, I may go alone next June. I'll put on a sandwich board and march around the capitol.

Everyone should show up in decked out in full regalia from Revolutionary era.
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

We would have to do it in the winter or we would wind up with that revolutionary era funk, don't ya know. That would be pretty neat, though. You know, we should all put this up on other boards to get it some more exposure. Also come up with a name for it. Maybe "The Patriot Group" or something. Ideas?

Dec. 15 1774 was the date that arms and powder were stolen from Fort William and Mary in Portsmouth NH. These were the arms the Redcoats were attempting to seize in April of 1775.

I like this.  This attire sends a subtle yet very profound message.  On the other hand, would it be OK if I didn't wear a wig and tights?   ;D

Well, you could wear a wig and tights but you would have to wear a lot more too. This ain't no gay pride parade!

This post kind of died out over the last week or so. I will try to keep it near the top of the page so folks are more apt to look at it. I think there are some good ideas here and we need to generate more.
