Down at the Gun Rally

There was a gun rights rally at the Capitol, about two blocks from my workplace. Of course I had to attend with my camera. The newspaper later reported that there were more than 1000 people there, but at 12:30 PM I estimated a couple of hundred. I thought this picture was indicative-- with people generally in a good mood. Overall the population of the rally was about eighty per cent men, but my pictures show me drawn to the women that were there, including the one brave woman with a pro gun control sign. A few more pictures are here.. Despite the show of guns, I couldn't be against people petitioning their government.
