Harrisburg show Who won?

[stubert]

Who REALLY won this battle? The anti's got thier wish (show canceled). The venders all lost a good portion of their income for the year. Still, It is a great day when we all stand shoulder to shoulder. As Yamamoto said after the attack on Pearl Harbour, "We have just woke up a sleeping giant" We all HAVE to stick togather during this round of attacks on our rights. United we stand, Divided we fall!

Gun owners won. The cancellation of this one show means nothing a far as the anti's go. Hundreds if not thousands of shows going on at the same time. What they hopefully learned that even if they don't deal in "assualt weapons" that we can stick together even if it means lost business to the vendors who cancelled. They are now saying it's postponed....why?....because before when it was cancelled they had to return entrance fees to the vendors so it did hurt them somewhere they can understand.

Normaly this show goes from Harrisburg to Philadelphia. Will be interesting to see how the show goes down there.

The city will also learn a lesson. No doubt that show brought millions of dollars to the economy. Hit 'em in the pocketbook.

I believe the figure is 40 million Ric....a fair amount to lose in this economy.

The real win for gun owners may come if a new sponsor creates a new show.

Loser is definately Harrisburg. Winners are the large manufacturers, small production less so. The hope is the people of Penn. will realize what they lost and be up in arms with their voices, protests and votes
