Re: An event to draw attention to the value of self-defense handguns

Thanks folks. I'm just trying to gauge interest at this point. If it looks like something we could put together, then we'll get down to actual planning of the date and locations. I would like to have it happen in several cities around the State.

An event to draw attention to the value of self-defense handguns

A discussion related to a national day of awareness for handguns, self-defense, "gun free zones" is being discussed in this thread. http://www.texaschlforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=94&t=84431

I like the idea of doing it in Texas, but organizing it on a national scale won't work. If you are interested in the concept, please answer the poll. I say "concept" because, at this point, it's only a concept that would have to be fleshed out of we decide to do it. I'm suggesting Sept. 1st since that's the day SB60 became effective setting up the Texas concealed handgun system. Unfortunately, that's on a Thursday this year. An alternative would be to do it on the first Saturday in September each year. Those are details to be worked out later, if there's enough interest. I don't want to do this unless we can do it big. I don't want it to turn our like the anti-gun or open-carry demonstrations at the Capitol where the three people involved couldn't find each other.
