just heard on WWL

This could be good! I would expect a warm reception for them. The coonasses are pissed off.

Funny thing is there will probably be about 12 counter protestors compared to 25,000 drilling moratorium protestors, and the network news will make it look like the the moratorium protestors are outnumbered.

they won't protest long in coonass land surrounded by a bunch of crazy roughnecks that are hoping to keep their jobs. trust me.

this should be interesting.

remember, work behind your jab. it'll set everything else up.

and if you get a chance, a headbutt to the nose to start things off will drastically increase your chances of taking down anyone.

After the locals get through pounding some of the limp wrists heads and get thrown in jail at least they will be getting three hots and a cot for a couple of days. Might just be worth it.

Probably so. The national media coverage will make it look like they out number the moratorium protesters.

I agree, someone isn't thinking too clearly here.

There are plenty of Greenie Weenie's around the country (Everyone should have something they're passionate about) so I don't doubt they wouldn't have a hard time holding a rally of their own. But for them to show up at this rally may be a very big mistake.

Take a man's girl and he may get pissed, take away a man's livelihood and he's liable to get crazy.

HH, we are bringing a big group with us. After the rally we're going to be kicking a few back at the Tilted Kilt.

Check out the website for the rally.

What time are you guys going to the rally? I'm thinking there is going to be a crowd and competition for seats?

Maximum seating is 13,000 and it shouldn't be hard to fill.

Doors open at 9:00. I'm thinking 10:00?
