1. I only counted 7 people

is that it? Is this all that Code Pink can muster?
I agree with their stance on the wars, but this is just pathetic if 7 is all they can muster.

2. Code pink, are they still around and are they even relevant?

13. Were they ever?

If relevant means getting dragged out of congressional committee meetings, I guess they were.

3. protesting a skeet and archery club?

I'm all for reducing violence, but they are barking up the wrong tree.

As far as the Congressional sportsmen competition, I hope the Dems win again this year.

6. Why don't they come to Chicago and march in Englewood or Chatham?

I'm pretty sure they'd get plenty of news coverage, definitely a lot more than they'll get on a rainy day at a skeet and trap club in Florida. Also much more exciting for sure.

I thought their gig was protesting the wars?

Not only irrelevant, but pretty dumb as far as visibility goes.

7. * I'm curious *

Discuss gun control laws, the Second Amendment, the use of firearms for self-defense, and the use of firearms to commit crime and violence.

How does this relate to the group SOP?

8. It doesn't, but that never bothers CircularMotion.

9. You know the anti-gun zealots don't have to post according to the group SOP!

Especially circularmotion.

10. While they have the right to protest, I fail to see what this protest will accomplish. (n/t)
