TTAG at SAF Gun Rights Policy Conference (September 28 – 30, Orlando, FL)

September 5, 2012

I kinda bullied my way into a panelist’s post at the Second Amendment Foundation’s Gun Rights Policy Conference (Hyatt Regency Orlando International Airport hotel from September 28 – 30th). And why not? TTAG is America’s most popular firearms blog. Our Armed Intelligentsia deserve to be heard. So I’m gonna represent. You’re invited to leave your command post, attend the SAF schmoozefest, berate me during my ten minutes of lame, and join up for some grub (gun range nearby?) on the night of the 29th. And if that’s not enough to justify a junket, John “Death by Stats” Lott will be in attendance, as well as Emily “Best Arms Since Linda Hamilton” Miller along with George Zimmerman’s criminal defense attorney Mark O’Mara. More on the Conference later. Click here for registration and drop me an email ([email protected]). Lots ‘o blogging to follow.

Well, hell, it’s hard to refuse an invitation like that.

  Just give Emily my phone number. Tell her I’m not a creep…really.

Hold up. Full stop. Is that YOUR desk, Robert?

  OpSec precludes a specific reply. Generally, it might be.

    Oh. Well, there’s nothing wrong with using a Mac, I suppose. Some of my closest friends use Macs. 😉

    LOL Well Macs are good for certain things.
    My mac book pro never leaves my side. 🙂

NOT FAIR I TELL YA! NOT FAIR!
I so wish I could be there.
John Lott and Emily would be worth the trip in and of itself.
So what will be your role there RF?
I am sure many of us have questions we would like answered or clarified by folks attending.

Hit up East Orange Shooting Sports if you get the chance. A good range, if indoors.

  Seconding East Orange up in Winter Park.

Nobody would ever buy a clock like that!

  I think it is a Mondaine…someone must like train station clocks…

As a speaker from previous GRPC’s I will tell you it’s not nearly as bad as most would think. The working with activists from around the country and building the relationships is alone worth the trip. Then you get to be educated by folks like John Lott, Alan Gura, Massad Ayoob and many others. Unfortunatly I had to choose a deer hunt, which I have been unable to do the last three years or attend this years GRPC. Had to go with the hunt, I got a daughter that wants to take her first deer.
