So much for your off handed dig, but because of my schedule I could not go, however BB62 did go. And, you well know that BB62 and I do a lot of projects pushing gun rights. I just don't understand why you continue to post on OCDO when you have such a low opinion of this forum. But, it is what it is....
Alas oh pontificating Gutshot, I am truly afraid the urgently requested, 4 day advance notice by the skin doctor who cleared a space out of his schedule for me at 0830L this past Friday to incise a 1 in x 2 in chunk of my bald spot to assure they got all the cancer out after the preliminary .5 x.5 biopsy cut the previous week kinda took precedence at least in my humble opinion.
Further, as a point of reference, my current schedule is full with a minimum of twice weekly commitments and other events until mid December 2018, but did, as stated out on this very thread but before the kind Dermatologist got all excited over the biopsy results, seriously consider driving straight through to Olsom to watch the festivities (w/o LG of course) and visit friends living in the SA area.
As for your allegation this member is all talk and no participation, I have left the great state of NC numerous times over the last 5 years and traversed to the Evergreen state (multiple of times), Buckeye state (multiple of times), Old Dominion state (multiple of times), and the Silver State to participate in OC'g as well as other firearm events, e.g., meet and greets several specific forum members, I-594 rallies, OC walks around campuses, GLBT walks, major firearm exhibits, and such.
Further, based on a conversation many years ago with the august member named Mac out of NV, to the extent possible based on scheduling constraints, I have taken to driving whenever I travel for firearm or personal reasons, one year it was 4 round trips from coast to coast across this great country OC'g, last year sorry there was only two trips, and part of the schedule this year is a minimum of 2 cross country trips. Oh sorry whenever possible, sorry I am traveling on semi-short notice firearm event which necessitates flying for the weekend even on the west coast! ALL, let me reiterate, ALL trips are with me OC'g to the extent states permit, e.g., IL for one, where as previously stated, the firearms being carried, are unloaded and secured under lock and key!
So please Gutshot, a query has been placed to you, if you have such a low tolerance of me, in particular, and others just cuz, why not acknowledge you lack the background of the things others do behind the scenes and those who are doing these activities who actually have control of their egos which preclude them from bragging about their adventure(s) yet continue to plug away a little bit at a time.
Have a nice day!
