Gun Violence Reduction for Local Communities (Action Planning Session)
Join us for a free community forum on gun violence reduction measures at the local level.

Come together with us as we learn more about best practices for local ordinances and measures that can be achieved in each of our cities.

This forum will feature legal experts and grassroots activists sharing 'lessons learned' on the road to a safer future.

Together we will surface the actions that we can each take to put our values into action.

Doors open at 9:30 AM for coffee and networking. The forum will begin at 10:00 AM.
Time:
Saturday, February 8, 2014 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

The city of Mountain View is not necessarily anti-gun, itself:

Ugh.

Personally I think using a president's name as a URL for a website devoted to political action is... not right!

[Bsandoc40]

I, personally, think it is genius for them to use Obama's name. The sheep of California will blindly do anything for their chosen savior. Band of Liberal Brothers!!

[Proch]

we should show up with big white boards and charts and facts depicting the drop in crime when localities have eased there gun restrictions.

This crap is spreading like wildfire, damn you Sunnyvale!

[Adeodatus]

Gosh dang it! I wish I could go but I start work at 7am on Saturday. I can go now! See you there!

I'll spread the word and send a few friends over.

Not in my home town you anti gun cowards! Not in my town!!!


Everyone please show up, bring a friend if you can!

[Adeodatus]

Also, if you live in Mountain View please check in with me via PM. I would like to start putting a team together to preemptively combat any possible gun control measures.

I have a few guys but the more the better.

So, anyone know how big the room is? How many people does it take to stuff it full when the doors open so there is no room left for the anti's?

[crazyScott90]

I suppose I could make an appearance. Not really sure what we are hoping to achieve here. It's unlikely that we will be able to sway anyone who is far enough down the anti path that they're actually attending a meeting like this on a Saturday morning. I guess it'll at least be good to show up and spy on them.

Something something Sun Tsu, something something know your enemy, something something dark side.

Edit: Can't make it. I also have work that day.

[Adeodatus]

So long as there is no family movie or party planned this Saturday, I will likely be there...

Fantastic! Thanks mrrabbit!

It's somewhat large if I recall correctly.

Here is the 'project organizer'.

While he claims to fight for 'equal human rights', apparently, he has yet to make the connection between equality and the tools of force that Sam Colt made to ensure all people are equal. This may be an important theme to counter his desire for disarmament.

Looks like googling 'Josh Wolf Mountain View CA' brings up some interesting links, likely to be relevant

This crap is spreading like wildfire, damn you Sunnyvale!

The one to damn is Bloomberg's organization. They are active in this state trying to promote gun control at the local level

Nothing happens to the gun banners? The people are taking away civil rights.
