St. Paul, MN CCW rally?

Anybody take part?
Were the #s large?

I haven't seen anything about it on three different networks. Just curious.

I didn't even know there WAS one. I get the CCRN e-mail updates and haven't read anything about this. Is it coming up in the future?

MPTHOLE

It was on Thursday of last week(Feb 7th). There was nothing on the website the weekend before, I had checked.

I think the e-mail system is down. I tried to register and got a reply about the system not working, or something simiar.

I didn't find out until the night before.

Well for cryin out loud that kind of torques me off that there was no publicity for this thing. I was available during the day for once and could have shown up.

Commander Fan - are you refering to the "Capitol Jam" that is advertised on the CCRN website? If so, this was a call-in campaign only, not an actual rally on the capitol steps.

This call-in thing I did do. My Sen and Rep are getting to know me by name because I call and write them so often!

You've made me much happier.

The www.mnccrn.org Calender read somthing like this:

Quote:
'CAPITOL JAM' Thursday, Feb 7 at 9:00am

Starting in the morning continuing all day
EVERYONE call or fax your....
I was confused when no commas or periods were used, and a time was given. I figured the 'call-in' was for those that couldn't make it. I thought the 'Capitol Jam' was another rally, like last year.

I had written the Senate Majority leader, Roger Moe(DFL), the week before. Roger Moe is also my Senate rep. I am currently waiting on my permit, which expired on the 1st(still packing). The Sheriff should have received the $10 I mailed yesterday.

It's very easy getting permits in the North-west portion of the state, for now. But I usually work in the metro-area, and find it completely opposite for residents down there, where most of the violent crime is occuring.
