OK. I got it now. Just needed a different computer. What is the best street to enter the lot from?

SE: Do you have an ETA for conclusion?

We have 5pm up as the official end time on the facebook event. (figure it on how long it should take you to leisurely walk 3 miles and multiply it by two)

However its smart to plan for possible delays of the normal kind, Kodak moments, educational literature dispersal, inquisitive passers-by, The Media, Crosswalk delays, waiting for people to catch up; annoying moments (knock on wood), the inevitable trip and fall/scrape/boo boos, The Media, diversions, counter-protesters, arseholes; and SHTF moments, run ins with disapproving lawyers/LEOs/politicians, Man With Gun calls, The Media

In other words. It could be done and ready to go by 2 OR we could all be in jail till our hearing on monday...

...I'd say...set some time aside

 

[Glockster]

I suspect it will be much less eventful but I'm glad someone is thinking about WCS.

Depends what side of town you come from. If you're coming from the S,W side of town, Maryland St would be easiest. N or E side of town, Washington to Alabama, turn left on Alabama (or straight on Alabama from N side) and you'll run right into the entrance for the garage.

Don't forget, the entrance to the surface parking is next to the big wall that says parking. You'll go under a Bail Bonds office to a pay-booth. We'll be somewhere in that parking lot. Don't worry, we'll make sure you can find us!

Exactly. I wanted to make sure I gave enough time for those not used to walking more than a mile at a time and those with small children also. The unpredictablity of this event called for me to give us extra time on the clock with the city just in case.




ALSO! The after-walk dinner will be held at Paragon Restraunt on the SW corner of Rockville and Girls School Rd. Open carry here is Good-To-Go!

The good news is that parking lot is right across the street from the jail. You won't have far to go. (J/K)

The better news is...Marion County runs the initial hearing court 20 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The best news is...I just saved a TON of money on my car insurance.

Are you saying we will not be allowed to walk with our completely legal and permitted open top (no thumb break) OWB handgun holsters?

Does it retain your handgun well if, say, you had to take off running in a dead sprint? My Kydex Holster has no retention strap but I can hang upside down on the monkey bars and swing around and sprint across the park without ever worrying about it coming out.

My custom made leather holsters do what they're supposed to do. Where does a "rule" like this come from, the cops or the organizers?

Just basic sense. If you wear an Uncle Mike's holster that has no retention strap, the chances of your pistol falling out should you need to jog across an intersection or whatever greatly increase. I seriously doubt anyone would do such a thing, but you just never know, right?

anyone know if the media is going to cover this yet?
