It's just the beginning...  A lot of the people I met there said they almost didn't know about the gathering today...

The next one will be bigger provided that more folks know about the gathering. You'd be surprised at how many people were showing their support by honking horns, waving, etc.  men, women, old folks, etc... People you wouldn't normally think we're supportive.

There are lots of people that support 2a... We do need to get even better organized and folks need to start showing up.

We can do some damage if people know more then 10 days in advance .   It also helps when one of the parties that generally likes to help organize isn't teaching classes all weekend, but I couldn't help it lol.

Next step, submit testimonials!!!!!
Nah i dunno.  Sign up for email notifications for hearings and when you can submit testimonials

If we can do this under a rush, imagine what the next will be with full support!

WE ARE THE 200

You look nothing like it!

Great seeing everyone out there!   2ahawaii is what keeps me informed on Hawaii Gun Issues and what got me out there.  Some people out there hadn't heard of 2ahawaii so I spread the word.  Perhaps at the next one I'll print some flyers or cards. 

Hats off to everyone who was there but especially the organizers and the LIFE people.  Everyone did a great job.

Oh yeah, Heavies was passing out stickers and they seemed really popular.  Good way to advertise
Next time maybe if i had permission i could have some printed out to hand out. Not sure if they are free or not.

This guy? He said, uh what about that Connecticut shooting! They shoot people in one second! Hahaha  i wanna have a gun like that"

To shoot 26 people "In like one second" is exactly why we need to educate people about guns. Even my brother who came here last month and is pro gun was VERY aggravated about how hard it was to hit the 8" target at the pistol range when I took him. Then he started talking about how the people in the movies turn their pistols 90 degrees and shoot moving targets. And how on TV cops come in and can shoot moving targets while they themselves are moving.

And this man's realty was 26 people killed in one second. I hate the press.

I big THANK YOU for everyone who supported the rally today!!! I saw a lot of old and new friends and made a few new friends today. Thank you also to whomever it was that made and brought all those signs. What a great bunch of people we have here in Hawaii!!!! 

I wasn't able to stop and wave but I drove by around 2 in a silver rav4 and honked all the way down the line.

Save those signs for the next time too!     

Thanks go to Mrs.Aiea78 for the signs and HNL.flyboy for the sign handles!  And mln41 and Duchi for the flags.  Am sure leaving out others who came with materials - please recognize their efforts.   Great feedback about making them bigger next time so passersby can read better. 

Now then, when is the next meeting. 

there is some work ahead of us.   so lets roll up our sleeves and get to work.   If your whining now and you don't do anthing, you have no right later to whine when they confiscate you firearms.     This fight has just begin, today was a scrimmage.   This is going to be an uphill battle, but its one worth fighting.   We need to push hard now to take the momentum away from the other side,  because if they get their way it will be a lot harder to reverse the decisions that are coming down the road.   

I suggest we have a meeting early next week to plan our next move.   

It was good to see the support out there today,  I for one was pleasantly surprised. 

Next time we should BBQ....

Aiea78 -  I am available monday at 600pm.    The sooner the better.   The left has a full court press on this.   We can't sit on this.

I was only able to say for the an hour, due to husband duties and the wife one baking in the oven.  It was nice to meet your Heavies!
