I was able to attend the Rally this year and it was a good one. I attend and help set up a number of these in years past.
I would guess that there were over 100 in attendance and there were about 20 speakers. Most of the speakers were legislators who were able to get away for a few minutes and spoke only for a few minutes. The speakers came from both side of the aisle and professed to always protect our 2nd Amendment Rights. Even our new Governor sent a speaker over to visit with us and again spoke well for our side, he also said the Missouri's CCW permit is now widely accepted across the state .
One of the things I found disappointing was the lack of leaders from the Pro-Gun Grass Roots Movement. There was of course Kevin Jamison from KC and Tim Oliver from Columbia. There was also a few of the leader ship from MOCarry and GCLA in St. Louis and WMSA from KC. I guess it was just a bad time for all to get together.
Any way it was good for me to get back to Jeff. and visit with a number of those holding office.
Try and make the trip next year, it's one of those things all gun owners should do.
